About Us

Established in December 2010 in Hsinchu Science Park, Taiwan—the global hub of semiconductor innovation—iMQ Technology is a premier provider of silicon-level hardware security solutions.

​

iMQ was founded and is led by Chairman Dr. Charles Hsu, a world-renowned semiconductor pioneer, former IBM T.J. Watson researcher, NTHU professor, and founder of eMemory Technology (the world’s largest eNVM IP provider). Building on a strong foundation from our early MCU business to our current focus on Secure Element and Secure NOR Flash development, iMQ leverages powerful IC design capabilities to bring security functions to life. By seamlessly integrating cutting-edge PUF and PQC IPs from strategic partners, we deliver comprehensive, easy-to-integrate solutions to global customers.

​

With our core R&D strictly based in Taiwan and dedicated sales and customer service offices in Hsinchu, Shenzhen, and Shanghai, iMQ’s pre-certified security architectures enable partners across Edge AI, Physical AI, Matter smart homes, automotive, and industrial automation to effortlessly fulfill international cybersecurity regulations (EU CRA / NIST) and drastically accelerate time-to-market.
