Digi International, a global provider of Internet of Things (IoT) connectivity products and services, has aligned with Simetric to bring validated eSIM orchestration and lifecycle control to its connected-device portfolio — empowering customers to manage distributed IoT environments with greater precision, security and flexibility.
As enterprises expand globally, they face growing complexity in managing devices, data and connectivity across carriers. Digi continues to lead the shift toward distributed networking, where visibility, governance and control are unified across operations. eSIM is central to this transformation, enabling true carrier choice and remote provisioning — but it also demands validation, interoperability and workflow consistency to succeed at scale.
Simplifying eSIM and distributed device management
“As connectivity becomes even more critical, customers expect simplicity and control,” said Landon Reese, the vice president of product management at Digi International. “Using Simetric’s advanced unification platform enables us to simplify the workflow and provide advanced features deliver on the promise of eSIM.”
Simetric’s Single Pane of Glass (SPoG) orchestration platform normalises data and workflows. Its GSMA SGP.32-aligned validation engine ensures consistency across carriers, eSIM providers and enterprise systems — removing adoption friction and giving Digi customers a standardised, trusted eSIM experience.
Validation and industry alignment
Simetric’s technology enables eSIM implementation across the ecosystem — including carrier profiles and EIM interfaces — to guarantee compliance and performance. This collaboration positions Digi among the first IoT solution providers aligning commercial deployments to GSMA .32 standards, setting a benchmark for interoperability and lifecycle governance in distributed networking.
eSIM adoption accelerating globally
Global eSIM growth is redefining connected infrastructure. Juniper Research projects 3.4 billion IoT eSIM connections by 2025, climbing to 40 billion by 2034. Meanwhile, a GSMA Intelligence study found 81 percent of enterprises view eSIM as essential to their IoT strategies — highlighting the need for validated orchestration platforms capable of managing this scale.
Ecosystem momentum and MWC 2026
This announcement forms part of Digi’s broader communications leading into Mobile World Congress 2026, where Digi will showcase continued innovation in validated eSIM management. Simetric’s ongoing orchestration work with ecosystem leaders, including Kigen, is helping define the technical foundation for scalable, standards-based distributed networking — making Digi a real-world example of how enterprises can operationalise validated connectivity.
“Digi represents the future of connected operations,” said Allen Boone, the CEO at Simetric. “By aligning around GSMA .32 validation and distributed orchestration, Digi is setting the tone for how enterprises will manage global connectivity moving forward.”
