Meeting the Demand of eSIM Knowledge
Since the arrival of consumer eSIM nearly a decade ago, the mobile industry has been in constant pursuit of new use cases. Companion devices-from tablets and wearables to laptops-are now mainstream, with 123 eSIM-enabled tablets and smartwatches launched by OEMs as of June 2025 according to GSMA Intelligence. Meanwhile, mobile network operators (MNOs) are expanding into the business segment, integrating eSIM and 5G technologies to deliver enterprise-wide benefits.
This rapid momentum has created both opportunity and complexity. According to GSMA Intelligence, global eSIM smartphone connections are expected to double between 2025 and 2026, reaching 4.9 billion by 2030 (55% of all smartphone connections). The challenge? Ensuring decision-makers, sales professionals, and non-technical teams fully understand this transformative technology.

To close this knowledge gap, GSMA Advance has launched eSIM Unlocked – a comprehensive, self-paced training course designed to demystify eSIM technology and its applications across industries.
