About CQSF

Making Curaçao quantum aware and quantum safe.

The Curaçao Quantum Safe Foundation helps government, business, education and the public understand what quantum computing changes for digital security, and prepare for it in time.

From internet exchange to quantum safe

The foundation has a history in Curaçao's digital infrastructure. It started life as Stichting Latin Internet Exchange (Lat-IX), which helped put Curaçao on the map for international data connectivity. In 2025 it relaunched with a new mission.
