SEALQuantum.com Lab: Driving Quantum, Cybersecurity, and AI Convergence

At the core of SEALSQ’s strategy is the SEALQuantum.com Lab, a next-generation research and development hub focused on the convergence of quantum computing and cybersecurity, now expanding into artificial intelligence (AI). With a total of $30 million investment capacity, the SEALQuantum.com Lab has already invested in startups like ColibriTD, and Quantix and acquired ASIC semiconductor design specialist IC’ALPS to develop tailor-made solutions for semiconductor manufacturing and post-quantum security.

Now, by adding AI as a key component of its roadmap, SEALSQ is positioning itself at the forefront of the Quantum-AI revolution. The SEALQuantum.com Lab is dedicated to enhancing semiconductor design and cybersecurity with quantum technologies, while integrating AI to optimize quantum systems and algorithms. Through strategic investments and collaborations with deep-tech startups, SEALSQ is driving practical solutions for advanced chip manufacturing and quantum-resistant security, laying the groundwork for hybrid quantum-classical systems that will transform computational efficiency and data protection.

A Concrete Example: Tackling the Sub-7nm Challenge

As part of its incubator activities, SEALSQ, through SEALQuantum.com Lab, together with ColibriTD, a pioneer in Quantum-as-a-Service (QaaS) platforms, and Xdigit, a specialized semiconductor design company with expertise in secure microcontrollers and IR Drop (voltage drop across power distribution networks) mathematical modelling, have announced a plan to develop a breakthrough solution to revolutionize semiconductor wafer yields for sub-7nm nodes

The partners have agreed on a six-month roadmap to lay the foundations of this innovation. The solution aims to improve wafer yield for advanced semiconductor designs at nodes below 7nm by addressing IR Drop issues. It leverages advanced mathematical modelling of IR Drop and uses quantum computing’s ability to solve the resulting complex Partial Differential Equations (PDEs).

This development directly addresses the semiconductor industry’s urgent need for innovation as traditional methods falter at smaller nodes, paralleling aggressive advancements in quantum computing, such as IBM’s plan to build a fault-tolerant quantum computer by 2029. IBM’s milestones, including the Quantum Loon chip introduced in 2025 to test advanced error correction architectures, underscore the rapid maturation of quantum capabilities that make solutions like those from SEALSQ, ColibriTD, and Xdigit both feasible and timely.

At nodes of 7nm and below, yield losses can exceed 50% due to increased wire resistance and quantum effects like tunneling, dramatically increasing chip development costs and delaying time-to-market. By tackling this IR Drop bottleneck, SEALSQ and its partners aim to unlock higher yields and enable next-generation chips essential for AI, automotive, and IoT applications.

Next Launch Events: Davos 2026 & IQT Quantum + AI

The next cohort of SEALQuantum startups will be officially presented during SEALSQ’s Quantum Corridor launch event in Davos, in January 2026. In addition, SEALSQ will spotlight its startup network at the IQT Quantum + AI event (iqtevent.com/quantumai) in NY in October 2025, which it proudly sponsors, giving startups direct exposure to global investors, policymakers, and industry leaders. Together, these events provide unparalleled opportunities to shape the future of quantum technologies.

“Quantum, cybersecurity, and AI are converging fast, and SEALQuantum.com Lab is where that convergence becomes real,” said Carlos Moreira, CEO and founder of SEALSQ. “Our investment strategy is not just about funding innovation, but about accelerating the deployment of secure, intelligent systems that will define the future of digital infrastructure. Together with our customers and partners, we are building a quantum-safe future.”

With its growing portfolio of bold innovators, the SEALQUANTUM Lab is laying the groundwork for a vibrant, sustainable quantum industry, helping startups transform cutting-edge science into tomorrow’s commercial breakthroughs.
