EMO MEDIA has officially launched EMOSIM, an innovative e-SIM card designed to eliminate communication challenges for travelers abroad. This groundbreaking solution allows users to seamlessly connect with loved ones and business contacts the moment they land in a foreign country, bypassing exorbitant roaming charges and the inconvenience of acquiring local SIM cards.
At the unveiling ceremony today in Lagos, Jimmy Eboma, Founder and Chairman of EMOSIM, highlighted the transformative potential of EMOSIM. “Today marks a pivotal moment, not just for Emosim, but for every Nigerian traveler, entrepreneur, and dreamer who has ever felt the weight of the world’s digital divides,” Eboma stated.
He recounted the common frustrations faced by travelers – silence instead of connection, draining roaming charges, long queues for SIM cards, and fragmented networks. “For too long, this has been our reality. But today, that story changes.”
Eboma emphasized that EMOSIM is more than just a product; it’s a “revolution built on a simple truth: connectivity is not a luxury; it is a lifeline.” He explained that with a single tap, users gain instant access to global networks across 190 countries with 600 connectivity partners, offering a seamless, borderless experience. “No swaps. No shocks. No borders,” he affirmed, crediting the innovation to “Nigerian ingenuity.”
“Beyond individual travelers, EMOSIM aims to empower a broader ecosystem:Travelers seeking affordable and consistent connectivity.Businesses requiring frictionless communication across continents.Families bridging distances with effortless calls, messages, and data.
Nigeria asserting its position as a digital leader on the global stage.” He noted.
Eboma proudly declared, “This is Africa’s time. While others see barriers, we see blueprints. While others talk of limitations, we build solutions.” He acknowledged Tata Communications as technical partners, whose global expertise, combined with his vision, brought EMOSIM to fruition. He also extended gratitude to his dedicated team for transforming the “impossible” into “possible.”
The launch garnered significant praise from prominent figures in the Telecommunications and marketing sectors. For example, Professor Umar Garba Danbatta, former Director General of the Nigeria Communication Commission (NCC), congratulated EMOSIM on its successful launch, noting that the era of being offline or incurring high roaming costs while traveling is over. He added that EMOSIM is one of the few brands licensed by the NCC to provide solutions to consumers that have truly come to fruition.
Tony Agemonme, immediate past President of the National Institute of Marketing of Nigeria, lauded Jimmy Eboma and his team for their achievement. Responding to a question about marketing, Agemonme highlighted that effective marketing solves problems. He shared his personal experience of expensive roaming or the hassle of buying local SIM cards when traveling, concluding that “what EMOSIM has done is simply preferring solutions to problems of travelers.” He also emphasized that EMOSIM is a testament to the fact that “good thing can come out of Nigeria.”
The event saw a strong turnout from travel firms, government officials, influencers, and other key stakeholders, signaling widespread anticipation for EMOSIM’s impact on global travel.
