Mobile World Congress Barcelona

27 February 2023
Fira Gran Via, Av. Joan Carles I, 64, -
Barcelone, Espagne

One more year, Thales is thrilled to participate one more time in the largest and most influential connectivity event, MWC Barcelona, and to present its key solutions that support the mobile industry’s digital transformation.

5G Acceleration. Always connected. Ultra-secure.


5G networks, provide faster connectivity speeds and ultra-low latency, transforming countries and societies. These therefore offer new opportunities to deliver groundbreaking solutions to our digital world.

Thales is actively delivering key solutions to secure 5G networks, from the edge to the core, and is helping to create a smarter, hyper-connected world, by:

  • Connecting and protecting the identity of people and things
  • Supporting our customers in their road to 5G deployment, while offering them the best connectivity, relying on scalable, sustainable and cyber-secure infrastructure, for drastic growth of many diverse connected devices
  • Simplifying the implementation, deployment and management of eSIM-based connectivity for IoT, in a cyber-secure framework
  • Maximizing 5G Security with our end-to-end encryption solutions that protect data at rest, in motion and in use, as well as securing subscriber credentials and privacy

With the great variety of devices urged to get connected over 5G, Thales SIM and eSIM solutions for consumers and IoT have been designed to enable MNOs, MVNOS,  IoT Service Providers and OEMs and to securely connect and manage them.

Optimizing the success of eSIM profile deployments

In a market increasingly equipped with eSIM solutions and with a constantly growing eSIM service demand, MNOs and Connectivity Providers need to optimize the efficiency and effectiveness of their eSIM subscription deployments, as well as offering the best end-user-experience. 

From operation efficiency with smart stock management, real time subscription profile adaptation, to eSIM analytics to predict and better understand the usage of eSIM subscription, Thales will demonstrate such disruptive and innovative eSIM solutions.

Streamlined eSIM and SIM management for Private Networks

Private networks are a key element of the enterprise digitalization.

These networks require eSIMs and SIMs to securely identify and connect users and objects. Thales eSIM as a Service offers private network providers a simple way to manage this essential component.

Focus on your business development and entrust the management of your eSIMs and SIMs to Thales, the world leader in this field.

Making massive IoT available to all

Thales Adaptive Connect implements GSMA eSIM standards, SGP.31 and 32, designed for massive IoT.

With this solution, IoT Service Providers and IoT device makers can build resilient and cost-effective connectivity with no back-end integration, no impact on device manufacturing and logistics operations.

This innovative solution, designed to deliver the flexibility required by the massive IoT segment extends commercial opportunities to MNOs and global network service providers of all sizes.

Digitalization – Trusted Digital Telco 

Consumers are increasingly looking for a trusted, end-to-end digital journey for purchasing and using their mobile plan.

Mobile first Thales solutions are either leveraging on a digital BSS to create a digital first brand or integrating to a carrier app proposing  a quick and secure onboarding, including identity verification and eSIM subscription for a 100% digital telco experience.

Reaching ESG objectives...

While rolling out your 5G Network deployment with Thales SIM cards.

Unlock your 5G potential with Thales 5G SIM cards. Over 20 MNOs have already selected Thales as their supplier of choice for 5G SIMs, deploying around 120 million units since 2020. 

Are you a Mobile Network operator working on ESG objectives for 2023? With Thales EcoSIM offer, the world’s first SIM made of 100% post-consumer recycled plastic, we help you to achieve real sustainable strategies, by reducing the impact of your SIM card activity and at the same time improving your brand awareness in the market.   

A new trust model for securing 5G networks

Thales 5G security solutions deliver end-to-end encryption and authentication to help organizations protect data.

This is done across fronthaul, midhaul and backhaul operations as data moves from users and IoT devices, to radio access, to the edge (including multi-user edge computing), and, finally, in the core network and data stores, including containers.

5G Non-Terrestrial Networks 

With the recent technical specifications in 3GPP related to Non-Terrestrial Network enhancements, a global standard for satellite systems is newly defined aiming to support any orbit, any frequency band and any device.

It opens the door for the seamless integration of satellite network components in 5G systems and beyond, delivering the promise of a ubiquitous mobile system providing 5G connectivity from space.

Thales, through Thales Alenia Space is leading this 5G NTN journey that would materialize in the upcoming years through new disruptive services and use cases like Direct-To-Device which offers the mass consumer or automotive markets (to mention a few) a continuous seamless wireless connectivity in areas not covered by the terrestrial networks.

The emergence of hybrid terrestrial-satellite systems is the result of a joint effort between stakeholders of both mobile and satellite industries and is paving the way to new business opportunities.
