G+D - Growth + Disruption in Connectivity, Security and Beyond

The launch of the eSIM-only iPhone 14 in the US in 2022 was a
landmark moment in eSIM growth and adoption. In our previous
podcast series, we talked to experts about eSIM testing,
interoperability, and how component shortages were leading to
migration from physical SIM to eSIM. Continuing with the eSIM
theme, we talked to Giesecke+Devrient (G+D), one of the leaders
in Counterpoint's Global eSIM Scorecard.

G+D has a long 170-year history going from banknote security to
becoming a leading eSIM technology innovator. We discuss G+D’s
pioneering role in delivering the world's first commercial SIM
card and its subsequent leadership in eSIM solutions. The
conversation also highlights eSIM complexities, emphasis on
education, industry collaborations for streamlined adoption, and
future trends, including IoT advancements with SGP.32.

In this latest episode of ‘The Counterpoint Podcast’, host Mohit
Agrawal is joined by Sören Haubold, Head of Market Intelligence
and Analyst Relations at G+D to discuss G+D’s journey, the early
days of eSIM introduction, subscription management, and testing.
They also touch upon the inflection point of the eSIM-only iPhone
14, and more.
