The Middle East and Africa (MEA) region is projected to grow at a CAGR of 28.9% in the iSIM market, supported by ongoing telecom modernization, smart city initiatives, and emerging applications in logistics, energy, and public safety. Countries like the UAE and South Africa are prioritizing digital infrastructure, creating fertile ground for iSIM use in security systems, mobile healthcare, and satellite-backed IoT networks. A growing trend is the convergence of iSIM and non-terrestrial connectivity to serve remote, underserved areas. Barriers include funding gaps and regulatory lag in less developed nations, but regional collaboration and government investments offer future potential.
