Who needs an eSIM? 

Across the globe, entrepreneurs and visionaries are on a quest to connect the world, advancing an overarching principle of ‘seamless connectivity'. 

Enter the eSIM 

It was the eSIM that enabled this new era of digital optimism.  The 'e' stands for 'embedded' because, unlike previous SIM cards, this one is built directly into the device hardware. It's a standardized rewritable chip, allowing the eSIM in a device to work with any network, instantly. 

The latest generations of both Apple and Android hardware carry an eSIM.  As the technology becomes increasingly ubiquitous, we are seeing simple and effective network connectivity across an ever-widening range of platforms. 

The eSIM chip is empowering a new generation of global thinkers to build a truly interconnected future. Let's look at just five of these power-users: 

The Entrepreneur 

Ambitiously business-savvy and ready to evolve with our changing times, the Entrepreneur is not just staying up to date but taking full advantage of every innovation helping them pursue their goals. They have a global vision, an open mind, and a keen eye for anything that can make their dream a reality. 

For the Entrepreneur, the eSIM was the key to their current business growth. Millennials, now firmly in their later thirties, are increasingly in decision-making and executive positions. According to the Dream Bigger: The Scale-Up Moment report by accountancy firm Smith & Williamson just under half of all leaders of UK scale-ups are under 34 (at time of publishing). These new leaders see opportunities worldwide, while successful enterprises are already using the tech to their advantage. With the affordably flexible mobile plans that eSIM allows, it's the perfect tool in the right hands. 

The Stylist 

Whether a millennial model, a young designer, or a fashion blogger, the Stylist needs to stay on trend and stay in touch, without being tied down. They use global connectivity to get ahead, and they do it with eSIM. 

The Stylist isn't going to waste time and money with roaming charges and SIM card delays. Their world moves quickly. The boundary between lifestyle and career are blurring, and rapid evolution is an integral element of both. They might be updating their website from the hotel lobby or planning a shoot that'll shake up the industry. Connectivity is essential for The Stylist, and so is eSIM. 

The Influencer 

Social media has fundamentally altered the way in which we consume media and engage with advertising. The Influencer knows exactly how to ride these waves. From Instagram and VSCO to YouTube and Twitch, young people are building brands in new and exciting ways. 

Whether they're attending fan conventions, meeting business partners to discuss a new promotion, or filming their latest international travel vlog the Influencer needs to keep in touch with their following, regardless of location. With an eSIM they always have the data plan that works for them, wherever their journey takes them. 

The Creative 

The Creative needs freedom above all else. They might be an artist or a filmmaker, a photographer with a vision or an actor on the verge of that big break. With their careers ahead of them, they can't afford to ignore any opportunity. 

It might be an offer on the other side of the world or a collaboration that just can't be missed. With an eSIM it's an opportunity they can take. This technology allows the Creative to instantly download a local data package at local rates, without worrying about a switching cards or breaking the bank. 

The Technologist 

Ahead of the curve and ahead of the game, the Technologist is living in the future, right now. They've got their finger on the pulse of a digital revolution and they understand the importance of connectivity. They want tomorrow's technology today, and they’ve got it with eSIM. 

The Technologist is a visionary. Their vision? A more efficient, interlinked user experience. With an eSIM the different processes of modern life have become increasingly unified. We're moving ever closer to the complete intersection of everything from the cars we drive to the phones we carry. With eSIM, the Technologist’s vision is already becoming the new normal.
