SEALSQ Corp (NASDAQ: LAES) ("SEALSQ" or
"Company"), a company specializing in Semiconductors, PKI, and
Post-Quantum technology hardware and software products, today
announced that in partnership with its parent company, WISeKey
International Holding (“WISeKey”) (SIX: WIHN, NASDAQ: WKEY), is
scaling its presence in Saudi Arabia to support the Kingdom’s
digital transformation and cybersecurity advancements. Through
their joint venture, WISeKey Arabia, in collaboration with the
Juffali Group, SEALSQ and WISeKey aim to gradually introduce
groundbreaking technology innovations tailored to Saudi Arabia’s
unique needs.
In 2019, WISeKey Arabia, in partnership with the
Juffali Group, a leading Saudi business conglomerate, is committed
to fostering a secure digital ecosystem in alignment with Vision
2030. The collaboration focuses on providing state-of-the-art
solutions, including Public Key Infrastructure (PKI), digital
identity management, and IoT security, enhanced with SEALSQ’s
quantum-resistant cryptographic technologies. This initiative
ensures a robust foundation for Saudi businesses and government
entities to thrive in an increasingly digital world.
Gradual Deployment of Cutting-Edge
TechnologiesSEALSQ and WISeKey plan to gradually introduce
innovative solutions to Saudi Arabia’s technology landscape,
including advancements in satellite communication and IoT security
through the WISeSat.Space ecosystem. WISeSat.Space, WISeKey’s
pioneering low-power, secure satellite solution, enables real-time
data processing for IoT devices in remote locations.
The system is designed to
provide:
- End-to-End Security: Utilizing
quantum-resistant encryption to protect critical IoT data.
- Cost-Efficiency: Reducing the
barriers to satellite communication for businesses and government
projects.
- Scalability: Supporting diverse
applications, including environmental monitoring, smart cities, and
supply chain optimization.
WISeSat.Space’s integration into the Saudi
market represents a strategic step in equipping local industries
with the tools needed to excel in the Fourth Industrial
Revolution.
Partnership with Hedera and The
Hashgraph AssociationIn addition to WISeSat.Space’s
deployment, SEALSQ and WISeKey are collaborating with Hedera,
leveraging its enterprise-grade distributed ledger for
blockchain-based applications. These efforts align with The
Hashgraph Association’s five-year partnership with the Saudi
Ministry of Investment Association, which includes the launch of
the $250M DeepTech Venture Studio. The DeepTech Venture Studio is
designed to support startups operating within Saudi Arabia in areas
such as blockchain, AI, IoT, robotics, and quantum computing.
Funded with $50M from The Hashgraph Association
and $200M from the Saudi Ministry of Investment Association, the
DeepTech Venture Studio provides significant opportunities for
Saudi-based companies leveraging Hedera’s hashgraph network.
WISeKey Arabia will serve as a trusted technology partner,
empowering startups with secure and scalable solutions.
Aligning with Vision
2030WISeKey and SEALSQ’s plans align with Saudi Arabia’s
Vision 2030, which emphasizes innovation, digital transformation,
and economic diversification. The partnership supports key national
initiatives, including the Centre for the Fourth Industrial
Revolution (C4IR) Saudi Arabia and the Quantum Economy project,
ensuring that the Kingdom remains a global leader in advanced
technologies.
“Our commitment to Saudi Arabia extends beyond
cybersecurity,” said Carlos Moreira, CEO of SEALSQ. “By introducing
groundbreaking technologies like WISeSat and collaborating with key
partners such as the Juffali Group, Hedera, and The Hashgraph
Association, we aim to empower the Kingdom’s businesses and
government with the tools they need to succeed in a rapidly
evolving digital landscape.”

Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) refers to
cryptographic methods that are secure against an attack by a
quantum computer. As quantum computers become more powerful, they
may be able to break many of the cryptographic methods that are
currently used to protect sensitive information, such as RSA and
Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC). PQC aims to develop new
cryptographic methods that are secure against quantum attacks. For
