The next wave of IoT connectivity is here. Enter eSIM orchestration.
In this episode, Eseye Executive Chairman Nick Earle is joined for a third time by Matt Hatton, Founding Partner and Analyst of Transforma Insights, to explore the market forces driving this shift.
The rise of eSIM technology specifications like SGP.32 offers more flexibility, but it also brings greater fragmentation. Enterprises now face a tangled web of regulations, latency constraints, and diverging network standards across the globe.
That's where eSIM orchestration comes in. Matt explains why a new orchestration layer is emerging—not just to simplify profile management, but to unify billing, compliance, and connectivity in a single managed service. Without it, global IoT remains a patchwork of complexity and compromise.
In this episode, you'll learn:
- What's driving the shift from roaming to eSIM orchestration
- Why eSIM orchestration fills the gap between flexibility and reality
- What it takes to deliver true global IoT at scale
Whether you're in telecoms, product development, or enterprise IoT strategy, this episode offers a clear view into what's changing, why it matters, and how orchestration might be the missing piece.

While 2023 was all about the device for the IoT industry, 2024 is already shaping up to emphasize the device even more than before.
The overarching theme of Eseye’s predictions for 2023 was how mobile network operators (MNOs) were finally going to cede control of IoT connectivity to enterprises. The predictions didn’t quite play out as expected, but they were fairly accurate:
2023 was meant to be the year of the device, but its importance in IoT has been underestimated. Consider SmartConnect increasing connectivity from 93 to 99 percent for PharmaWatch with intelligence at the edge.
On balance, the mid-year reflection proved the main trend to be accurate: MNOs did lose power over IoT.
Based on the theme of the device at the center, Eseye makes three big predictions for 2024:
