SEALSQ Organizes French Quantum and Space Day: Leading Experts in Quantum, Post-Quantum, and Space Security Gather near Marseille for a Unique Technology Showcase
Geneva, Switzerland, April 28, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --
Public Event to be Held on May 13, 2025, at Hotel Le Fregate, Saint-Cyr-sur-Mer, France
SEALSQ Corp (NASDAQ:LAES) ("SEALSQ" or "Company"), a company that focuses on developing and selling Semiconductors, PKI, and Post-Quantum technology hardware and software products, today announced it will host the French Quantum and Space Day on May 12–13, 2025 at Hotel Le Fregate, Saint-Cyr-sur-Mer, in France. This exclusive event will bring together global experts in quantum computing, cybersecurity, and space infrastructure to discuss and demonstrate technologies essential for securing communications and data against future quantum-enabled threats.
Building on the success of Quantum Tech Days in Davos and New York, SEALSQ now broadens the scope to a critical new dimension: securing space infrastructure. As satellite systems become essential for defense, navigation, communications, and Earth observation, they must be protected against the vulnerabilities quantum computing introduces. Post-quantum security is no longer optional, it is an urgent requirement for space operations.
"Quantum technology is reshaping cybersecurity, but at SEALSQ, we are not simply reacting, we are anticipating and building a trusted foundation for the future," said Carlos Creus Moreira, CEO of SEALSQ. He added "We are thrilled to invite you to join us for this exciting event in the south of France with technology experts and our staff."

Why Post-Quantum Security for Space is Urgent
Space assets — including satellite constellations, orbital communications, and critical Earth monitoring systems — are increasingly vulnerable to quantum-enabled attacks.
Without robust post-quantum protections, these vital systems could be disrupted or controlled by adversaries, leading to massive cascading failures across global economies and security infrastructures.
SEALSQ stands at the forefront of building the semiconductor and cybersecurity defenses the world urgently needs — securing everything from the smallest IoT device to critical orbital infrastructure.
