Globe Telecom partners with Thales and Bridge Alliance to pilot GSMA SGP.32 eSIM standard for enterprise IoT in the Philippines.
The GSMA SGP.32 standard enables bulk remote provisioning of SIM profiles, seamless operator switching, and secure lifecycle management of IoT devices.
Globe is the first in the Philippines to trial the SGP.32 standard, integrating Thales' Adaptive Connect Services for IoT connectivity.
Thales supplies Adaptive Connect to enable bulk SIM provisioning, remote activation, and profile switching for fleet-based companies.
Bridge Alliance, a telco consortium, ensures multi-market readiness and cross-border deployments for the project.
The trial aims to demonstrate remote bulk SIM provisioning, seamless operator switching, and secure activation using SGP.32 by Q3 2025.
Global IoT device count to exceed 4.9 billion by end of 2025, with the Philippine IoT market estimated to reach ₱410 billion by 2029.
Globe's SGP.32 rollout aligns with regional digital transformation trends, propelling them as a leader in enterprise IoT infrastructure.
Benefits include simplified management of connected devices, enhanced competitiveness for telcos, and seamless deployment for IoT vendors.
The trial sets high standards for scalable, secure, and efficient IoT connectivity across Southeast Asia, promoting smarter digital workplaces.
Future phase aims to open the platform to OEMs and enterprise clients for wider adoption of SGP.32-certified devices.
