# Sarawak and IBM Plan Quantum Safe Centre

Sarawak Artificial Intelligence Centre (SAIC) and IBM Malaysia plan to establish the Sarawak Quantum Safe Centre for post-quantum cybersecurity research, skills development, and organizational migration readiness. No solicitation, investment amount, launch date, or initial participants have been announced, so the initiative is a potential future market signal rather than an active procurement opportunity.

- The centre’s stated focus could generate future demand for cryptographic asset inventories, risk assessments, remediation planning, workforce training, and migration services for public-sector agencies and businesses.
- Contractors specializing in cybersecurity and post-quantum cryptography can assess whether their research, advisory, or training capabilities align with those areas; no specific procurement route or contract is identified.
- Government procurement teams can use the initiative’s focus areas to inform longer-term planning for post-quantum readiness, while avoiding assumptions about mandatory requirements or procurement timelines.
