SEALSQ and WISeSat Unite to Launch Six New Generation Satellites in 2025 Equipped with Advanced Post-Quantum Technology
The first one of the WISeSat new generation satellites to be launched on January 14
SEALSQ Corp, a company specializing in Semiconductors, PKI, and Post-Quantum technology hardware and software products, today announced that it will launch six next-generation satellites in 2025 in cooperation with WISeSat AG (“WISeSat”), both subsidiaries of WISeKey International Holding Ltd (NASDAQ: WKEY; SIX: WIHN). Each satellite will feature incremental advancements in post-quantum cryptography and secure communication technologies, further solidifying its leadership in satellite-based IoT solutions.
The first of the new generation satellites will be launched on January 14, 2025, from the Vandenberg Space Force Base in California, in partnership with SpaceX.
This ambitious deployment is part of a groundbreaking initiative to establish a secure, scalable satellite constellation supporting machine-to-machine (M2M) communication via space. Powered by SEALSQ’s post-quantum semiconductors and WISeSat’s expertise in IoT satellite communication, the constellation is designed to meet the growing demand for resilient and scalable solutions across industries such as logistics, precision agriculture, and critical infrastructure.
The constellation operates on a Satellite-as-a-Service (SataaS) model, providing industries with seamless access to cutting-edge satellite capabilities without requiring extensive infrastructure investments. The constellation delivers unparalleled solutions for businesses requiring robust and adaptive satellite services by ensuring secure IoT data transmission and real-time automation.
This collaboration reinforces SEALSQ and WISeSat’s commitment to advancing secure communication technology and leveraging space as a platform for innovation. With six launches planned for 2025, the satellite network will continuously integrate the latest technological advancements, ensuring it remains at the forefront of Security, scalability, and reliability.
