Semiconductors power our world, but recent global events have led to stocks falling and lead times growing, resulting in a widespread semiconductor shortage. This has led to a decrease in productivity and revenue for many SIM card companies.
The global chip shortage however represents the perfect opportunity for telecoms to embrace digitisation and to work with stable SIM-providers to develop end-to-end, future proof and fully customisable solutions.
In this report, we delve into the global events that have led to the semiconductor crisis, the effect of the disruption on industries, pricing and regulations and what immediate and near-term strategies Oasis Smart SIM have deployed to limit damage, ensure there are sufficient SIMs in stock and allow for innovation.
