TAIPEI (Taiwan News) — Chelpis Founder and CEO Chih Ming-yang (池明洋) delivered a keynote speech on Taiwan’s post-quantum cryptography (PQC) migration framework at the MITRE PQC Forum on Monday in McLean, Virginia.
Chih became the first Taiwanese corporate leader invited by MITRE to speak on PQC migration. His address focused on securing the global semiconductor supply chain, underscoring Taiwan’s growing role in advancing cybersecurity and quantum-safe technologies, per a press release.
He said Taiwan’s government has designated PQC as a key national technology and integrated quantum decryption risks into its national cybersecurity strategy. Led by the Ministry of Digital Affairs, a five-year PQC promotion plan was launched in 2024. The Financial Supervisory Commission is also preparing quantum security guidelines for the financial sector to accelerate quantum-safe migration across banks and financial services.
Chih emphasized that Taiwan’s semiconductor industry, responsible for nearly 70% of the global market, is moving aggressively toward PQC adoption. Chelpis, with more than a decade of PQC research and development, has been active in international cryptographic standardization efforts. Its PQC modules have been recognized by the Linux Foundation and certified under the US National Institute of Standards and Technology Cryptographic Algorithm Validation Program.

These modules support ML-KEM and ML-DSA algorithms, which secure applications in AI data centers, drones, and robotics. Across Taiwan, dozens of chip design companies are developing PQC-enabled next-generation systems, aiming for full quantum-safe upgrades by 2027 to meet the EU Cyber Resilience Act and US cybersecurity regulations.
Following his keynote, Chih joined the “Aligning International Practices” panel with representatives from the US Department of State and the MITRE PQC Coalition to discuss cross-border PQC policy and standards alignment.
Through its Quantum Safe Migration Center, Chelpis is aligning with NIST FIPS 203/204/205 standardization and has formed alliances with Riscure, SGS, Brightsight, TUV, and Applus+. These collaborations strengthen Side-Channel Attack (SCA) and Fault Injection (FI) testing capabilities, helping build a robust chip security validation ecosystem.
After the forum, the US National Cybersecurity Center of Excellence invited Chelpis to participate in major PQC implementation projects, further boosting the company’s PQScan and PQTunnel products in global markets.
Chih also announced that Taiwan will host the Real World Crypto 2026 conference in Taipei from March 9–11, marking the first time the world’s leading cryptography conference will be held in Taiwan.
“Taiwan sincerely welcomes the global community to witness our progress in PQC research, policy, and deployment,” said Chih. “With semiconductors at its core, Taiwan is shaping the future of global quantum security.”
Founded in 2017, Chelpis Quantum Corporation specializes in post-quantum cryptography technologies, migration frameworks, and quantum-secure chip design. Through its QSMC, the company collaborates with the MITRE PQC Coalition, Linux Foundation PQCA, and Academia Sinica to enhance the cybersecurity resilience of semiconductors, drones, robotics, and AI systems.
“PQC migration is not just a technological challenge; it is a global cybersecurity collaboration,” Chih said. “Chelpis is proud to help lead the world toward a quantum-secure era.”
