Tim Brazil adopts IDEMIA’s eSIM solution to meet IoT market demand in Brazil
IDEMIA, leader in Identity technologies and TIM, the largest mobile operator in Brazil in 4G coverage and pioneer in IoT projects, reinforce their partnership with eSIM management solutions for the Machine-to-Machine and Internet-of-Things markets. The synergies aim at providing a series of solutions that can boost connectivity of companies in segments such as the automotive industry, agribusiness, utilities (energy, water and gas, for example), public lighting and smart cities.

Currently, TIM uses IDEMIA’s eSIM management solution in its product offering to the market. The technology allows a digital profile to be downloaded remotely from the IDEMIA platform and stored in a eUICC secure element, and then activated on TIM’s network. This process provides multiple benefits, playing a leading role in the Industry 4.0 ecosystem, enabling the creation of new business models, optimizing processes and reducing complexity.
According to Counterpoint Research, shipments of eSIM-based devices will reach almost 6 billion units by 2025, mainly due to smartphones and enterprise IoT devices. For TIM customers, eSIM offers a true digital experience, with real-time subscription activation for eSIM-enabled devices. Logistics will be simplified as devices with eUICC can be produced locally in a single factory and then shipped globally, being able to easily connect to a local network at their point of destination. The technology also facilitates the construction of Business Intelligence solutions, with the optimized capture of different types of data in real time through TIM’s IoT network in Brazil, in compliance with data security and privacy regulations.
