SEALSQ Acquires Miraex to Finalize Quantum Sovereign Vertical Stack and LEO Satellite Network
Post-quantum semiconductor specialist SEALSQ Corp has finalized the acquisition of 100% of the issued share capital of Swiss photonics developer Miraex SA. The transaction was executed via SEALSQ’s internal strategic fund, SEALQUANTUM.com, which commands a $200 million capital pool dedicated to constructing a vertically integrated, sovereign quantum hardware value chain. The acquisition marks the eighth [...] The post SEALSQ Acquires Miraex to Finalize Quantum Sovereign Vertical Stack and LEO Satellite Network appeared first on Quantum Computing Report .
The acquisition reflects a strategic push towards vertically integrated quantum hardware, leveraging existing expertise in post-quantum semiconductors and photonics to build sovereign capabilities.
This move highlights a global effort by nations and companies to control critical quantum infrastructure, aiming to secure future technological advantage and reduce reliance on external supply chains.
The formation of a 'sovereign quantum vertical stack' by SEALSQ, reinforced by strategic acquisitions and LEO satellite network plans, demonstrates a tangible shift towards national quantum technology independence.
- · SEALSQ Corp
- · Switzerland (as a base for quantum tech)
- · Quantum hardware sector
- · Early adopters of sovereign quantum solutions
- · Nations without indigenous quantum development
- · Companies relying purely on fragmented supply chains
- · US/China dominant quantum vendors (in certain markets)
SEALSQ gains critical photonics expertise and expands its capability for quantum technology development.
Increased competition among nations and private entities to establish independent and secure quantum communication and computing infrastructures.
Potential for new geopolitical power dynamics based on access to and control over advanced quantum technologies, influencing future national security and economic landscapes.
