Jens Christoph, in charge of eUICC M2M test solutions at Comprion, explained: “We are pleased to receive this prize as it values the uniqueness and all the efforts by the team behind Comprion Network Bridge. It is the only solution that can establish a direct connection between the eUICC and the relevant back-end servers by ‘bridging’ the complete over-the-air communication”.
The solution eases the work of eUICC manufacturers, mobile network operators as well as SM-DP and SM-SR providers during the complex task of testing eSIM provisioning scenarios. Changing the profile or associated SM-SR, involves many different components, like eUICC, mobile device, mobile network, and different servers such as MNO, SM-DP, and SM-SR. In order to change the profile that contains the credentials for the mobile network access, SM-SR and SM-DP servers need to interact with the eUICC. Comprion Network Bridge provides this connection without the need for a real device or a real or simulated mobile network.
The awards were presented on 29th November during the official ceremony of the Trustech trade show in Cannes. For the decision, the jury – a group of international experts recognised in their field – considered criteria such as innovative nature of the entry submitted, market opportunity, and quality of argument.
