- Thales selected by Globalgig, a leading Global Connectivity
Service Provider, to offer the first smart IoT connectivity of this
kind in the world, guaranteeing a service continuity for devices at
rest or in movement.
- Globalgig relies on Thales Adaptive Connect to allow remote IoT
devices to automatically download a local mobile subscription -
when they are first powered up - or reconnect during a network
failure.
- Leveraging the flexibility offered by the widely deployed eSIM
based solutions will lead to faster and more efficient
roll-out of exciting IoT use cases such as smart metering.
Thales announces a new partnership with Globalgig, the Global
Connectivity Service Provider, for the world’s first deployment of
Thales Adaptive Connect, an innovative
solution that supports the smart connection of massive fleets of
IoT devices. Based on eSIM (embedded SIM) technology, Thales
Adaptive Connect effectively enables IoT devices to connect and use
the most appropriate subscription as soon as powered up in the
field.

By 2025, an estimated one billion eSIM enabled IoT devices will
be deployed worldwide. Unlike consumer products, IoT devices are
usually positioned in remote and unattended locations. To support
this expected massive IoT deployment stake, Globalgig decided to go
for Thales remote connectivity management solution to address this
global need.
Indeed, Thales Adaptive Connect is designed specifically to
deliver the flexibility required by the IoT sector – leveraging
built-in eSIM and remote subscription management. Any device at
rest or in movement can be activated remotely eliminating the need
to preload mobile subscription on the production line. With the new
solution, Global Connectivity Service Providers - such as Globalgig
- and Group of Operators can offer immediate and seamless remote
connectivity to IoT Service providers, with no impact on device
manufacturing and logistics operations.
As a result Thales Adaptive Connect delivers compelling benefits
to IoT and Global Connectivity Service Providers supporting the
deployment of new valuable services, as well as device
manufacturers, as one device can now serve all markets. All
stakeholders will find it much easier to roll-out innovative and
affordable IoT use cases for their end users and customers, thanks
to a service continuity assured by Thales.
Mark Castle, Chief Revenue Officer for Globalgig UK,
said: “Thales Adaptive Connect is the only solution of its kind on
the market. Fitting perfectly with our commitment to innovation and
transformation, it represents an unprecedented opportunity to offer
exceptional connectivity services throughout the IoT ecosystem. We
have already signed up a number of major clients.”
Emmanuel Unguran, SVP Mobile Connectivity Solutions at
Thales said: “Enabling a myriad of exciting use cases, ranging
from smart metering to smart cities, massive IoT deployments are
set to transform the quality of everyday life. By partnering with
Globalgig for the first ever deployment of Thales Adaptive Connect,
we are dramatically streamlining the process of creating,
connecting and supporting these IoT devices. Quite simply, Thales
Adaptive Connect is going to make the future happen faster.”
