Manx Telecom Group has launched beSIM, a global eSIM business unit that develops solutions leveraging its vast network of over 600 roaming agreements around the world to offer travel and fintech companies the opportunity to create new roaming revenue streams by offering embedded eSIM services to their customers through their existing apps.

The global roaming eSIM is becoming increasingly popular due to its convenience and cost-effectiveness for travelers who need to stay connected while abroad. With the ability to switch between multiple carriers and plans without physical SIM cards, users can enjoy seamless connectivity without the hassle of buying and swapping SIM cards.

He has held various senior positions in global telecommunications companies, and most recently served as Global Head of Sales at Truphone for its Finance Sector.
