Session Description

China has officially entered the eSIM era. Following years of progress in wearables, tablets, and IoT devices, eSIM technology has now been launched for smartphones, marking a major milestone in the country’s digital transformation. This breakthrough is the result of strong collaboration between mobile operators, OEMs, eSIM vendors, and technology innovators, paving the way for a new wave of connectivity. During this summit, industry leaders will explore how eSIM is reshaping China’s landscape and address the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead as eSIM becomes a standard in China’s mobile ecosystem.

Keynote Description

Beyond eSIM – Optimizing Connectivity for Chinese OEMs at Scale

Speaker: Nina Fan | VP of IoEM Sales & GM of China, Valid

Chinese OEMs are among the most advanced players in the global device ecosystem, with strong capabilities in eSIM adoption and international deployment. As the market evolves, the challenge is no longer enabling connectivity — but managing it efficiently at scale across diverse environments.

This keynote explores how connectivity complexity is increasing across both China’s structured frameworks and global multi-operator ecosystems, and why operational efficiency, lifecycle management, and system integration are becoming critical differentiators.

Valid presents how its expertise in secure embedded technologies and connectivity orchestration helps OEMs simplify operations, reduce integration complexity, and optimize performance — both within China’s regulatory environment and across international markets.

While the ‘China’s eSIM Era’ Summit sets the vision, a private meeting with our team provides the execution. We invite all OEMs and technology leaders to schedule a time to meet with our team in Shanghai. Whether you want to dive deeper into Nina Fan’s keynote insights or explore a tailored solution for your next project.

Environmental compensation

In order to make a significant difference and bring a real benefit to our environment and planet, Valid decided to create, together with Plastic Bank, an environmental compensation program.

Plastic Bank is a social enterprise empowering a regenerative society. They build ethical recycling ecosystems in coastal communities and reprocess the materials for reintroduction into the global supply chain as Social PlasticTM.

Their collectors receive a compensation for the materials they collect which helps them to provide basic family necessities such as groceries, cooking fuel, school tuition, and health insurance.

Their certified blockchain platform secures the entire transaction and provides real-time data visualization – allowing for transparency, traceability, and rapid scalability.

Compensation Program

With this goal, Plastic Bank is relying on companies like Valid to support the collection process of the plastic in order to:

Mitigate the impact of many corporations and potentially reduce, offset or decrease the plastic footprint of their operations.

Improve the social and economic situations in different regions of the world by creating job opportunities through plastic waste collection.

Supports environmental stewardship and circular economy.

For every SIM card that our customers sell to their consumers under this program, Valid will collect one plastic bottle from the environment.
