Kigen integrates security to better lives with eSIM (eUICC) and iSIM technology across all connected products and data. Their industry-leading SIM OS products enable over 2.5 billion SIMs.
Their GSMA-certified remote SIM provisioning and eSIM services drive this momentum, further recognizing them as one of the global eSIM enablement leaders.

As an Arm-founded company, Kigen brings an ecosystem approach to driving innovation and collaboration. Kigen’s iSIM solution makes the SIM an integral part of the processor in chip fabrication and is kinder to the planet too; offering 70% lower power consumption than a traditional physical SIM.
This opens up new ways to deliver power-efficient data processing for 5G and global LPWAN networks, and more room to add advanced computing such as Artificial Intelligence (AI).

Kigen and SORACOM’s partnership has made iSIM technology commercially available on market-leading chipsets and modules worldwide by using Kigen iSIM OS on SORACOM’s advanced IoT connectivity platform.
iSIM technology creates performance efficiencies in the production, auto-provisioning, and management of IoT devices. These iSIM efficiencies reduce the time it takes to deliver new IoT products to market, allowing companies to deploy advanced IoT solutions faster and more reliably.
