2024.05.28
Beyond Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Naniwa-ku, Osaka City, Osaka Prefecture, Representative Director: Masahiro Haraoka, hereinafter referred to as "Beyond"), which provides cloud / server business, is a global eSIM for corporations that supports over 200 countries and regions around the world. We have started providing the service "Beyond SIM".
What is eSIM?
eSIM is an embedded SIM card, and unlike a physical SIM card, it is a technology that manages SIM information using a chip and software built into the device. This SIM has the advantage of not requiring the user to replace the SIM card, storing SIM information in virtual form, and allowing data to be updated remotely, making it easy to support a variety of devices.
Another feature of this service is that it can be used flexibly, such as by using multiple lines and using them temporarily to meet the needs of users.
Because eSIMs are 100% digital and reusable, they are expected to be a sustainable alternative to disposable SIM cards, reducing the environmental impact of manufacturing and disposing of physical SIMs.

Current status of eSIM
Globally, the eSIM market is rapidly growing, with the transition from physical SIMs to eSIMs progressing, and eSIM providers are entering the market one after another.
In addition, eSIM has spread not only to the mobile communications industry but also to various fields such as in-vehicle devices, IoT, and smart homes, and because it allows seamless and flexible connectivity, new business models and services have been born, and it has also become popular in Japan. There are also growing expectations that it will bring about major changes.
Background of Beyond providing eSIM
Beyond has overseas bases in Canada and China and conducts business locally, but especially when you are on a long-term business trip or stationed overseas, we need to prepare local data communications and telephone lines, as well as charges related to usage fees. I had a chance to face a problem.
We thought that people in companies who go on business trips or are stationed overseas for long periods of time might have similar issues, so we started by offering this service as a service for companies, corporations, local governments, and public offices.
As the eSIM industry is expected to expand further in the future, we aim to create new business models and services by entering an industry that is expected to be used in more diverse fields than ever before. I'll go.
