New ETSI specification allows single UICC to support the use of multiple applications simultaneously

Sophia Antipolis, 26 October 2022

New specifications released by ETSI will enable multiple subscriptions and identities to exist in the same smartphone handset without needing several SIM cards to be within the device.
