"Travel embedded subscriber identity module (eSIM) enablement platform Telna has launched the industry's "first dedicated investment fund" focused exclusively on digital-first, direct-to-consumer eSIM brands and applications. The $100m fund is designed to accelerate the global adoption of travel eSIMs and support the next generation of mobile virtual network operators (MVNOs) and "super apps". In addition, fund will be designated to allow these companies to expand, based on Telna's global telecom infrastructure, API capabilities and data platforms."
"Objectives include enabling travel eSIM MVNOs and super apps to focus on the application and consumer engagement layers, using AI-driven services and marketing collaborations to accelerate adoption across regions and vertical markets. For example, Telna believes that travel eSIM MVNOs are emerging as the application layer in their regions, delivering seamless prepaid roaming services while positioning themselves to become the foundation for regional super apps and broader local connectivity services."
