Trasna unveils next-gen IoT device management with GSMA’s new eSIM standard

Stéphane Fund, CEO of Trasna

28 February 2025, Abu Dhabi: Trasna, a global semiconductor and IoT provider, has introduced its next-generation IoT management solution, enabling secure and unconstrained remote management of both devices and SIMs. The platform supports the GSMA’s new eSIM standard for IoT, SGP.32, addressing limitations of traditional technologies that restrict the number of networks and require costly, time-intensive deployments.

The platform offers several improvements over conventional M2M technologies, including lower operational costs, simplified processes, and broader market reach. It enables businesses to manage devices that were previously difficult to support, such as those with limited power or no user interface. Additionally, the solution enhances update success rates by maintaining communication with inactive devices, even when switched off or out of network range. Its automation capabilities further reduce the manual effort required to manage large IoT deployments.

The eSIM market is experiencing significant growth, with Counterpoint Research projecting a 43% annual increase in IoT connections using embedded SIM technology until 2030. By that time, eSIMs are expected to account for nearly one-third of all IoT connections. Trasna, recognised this month as one of the top four leaders in eSIM technology, has been a pioneer in the sector since 2021, when it launched the first cloud-based eSIM management service. The platform now supports over 150 telcos worldwide.

"Imagine being able to manage billions of devices at the flick of a switch—no matter where they are or what state they’re in. That’s the power of the new eSIM standard. It’s not only about reducing the cost of connectivity; it’s about giving businesses the freedom to innovate. This is a turning point for IoT, and we’re excited to be at the forefront, helping businesses and providers unlock their full potential with simplified connectivity and end-to-end security from device to application.”
