California-based Monogoto is working with Nordic Semiconductor to accelerate the adoption of NuSIM, an integrated SIM (iSIM) approach for IoT devices.

As IoT devices become smaller, more power-efficient and more globally distributed, the industry is shifting away from removable SIMs towards iSIM technologies. Through this collaboration, Monogoto and Nordic are enabling developers and device manufacturers to adopt NuSIM-ready designs that embed connectivity directly into the nRF9151 module, streamlining manufacturing, improving security and delivering seamless global connectivity from day one.

“NuSIM represents a fundamental shift in how IoT devices are designed, manufactured and deployed,” said Maor Efrati, CTO at Monogoto. “It is part of the software-defined connectivity revolution. By removing the need for a physical SIM and enabling embedding connectivity directly into the module, we remove friction across the entire lifecycle, from prototyping to mass deployment, all without compromising on security. Our collaboration with Nordic is about growing an open, scalable ecosystem where this integrated SIM technology enables secure, low-power and future-proof IoT connectivity across terrestrial and satellite networks.”

The collaboration allows Nordic Semiconductor customers to leverage Monogoto’s cellular, satellite (NTN) and private network connectivity as part of an integrated connectivity experience aligned with NuSIM principles. The Nordic nRF9151-SMA-DK development kit is equipped with Monogoto connectivity, giving developers immediate, hands-on access to globally optimised connectivity without the complexity of traditional SIM provisioning or physical SIM handling.

“The future of IoT depends on tight integration between silicon, software, connectivity and cloud,” said Kristian Sæther, senior product director at Nordic Semiconductor. “Integrated NuSIM allows companies to focus on innovation rather than SIM and connectivity logistics. By working with Monogoto, we’re giving our customers access to a global, reliable connectivity layer that complements Nordic’s low-power cellular solutions and supports the next generation of scalable IoT products.”

As the IoT ecosystem evolves towards massive scale, low power operation and hybrid terrestrial-satellite coverage, iSIM technologies such as NuSIM provided by Redtea-Mobile (www.redteamobile.com) are becoming essential. Monogoto and Nordic Semiconductor are jointly enabling this transition by lowering barriers to entry and fostering an ecosystem where connectivity is embedded, programmable and globally accessible by design.
