We are one month out from the closing of submissions for the 2023 Global Carrier Awards.

Bridge Alliance, Singtel and Ericsson took home a Global Carrier Award in 2022 in the Best IoT Initiative category for a collaboration allowing eSIM swaps in connected car operation. The partnership is built on Singtel's Multi-Domestic Connectivity solution, powered by Ericsson's IoT Accelerator platform that deploys services seamlessly and efficiently across the region, and Bridge Alliance's tight-knit community of tier-one mobile operators in the region.

Entries are now open to the 2023 edition of the Global Carrier Awards. So it’s a good time to look back at some of the companies, projects and initiatives that won in 2022 and how they have pushed on in 2023 – starting with the Southern Cross NEXT cable project, winner of the Project of the Year – Subsea category.
