JT Progress Report 2020

JT On An International Stage A year of Evolution and Growth. ‘Flexibility’ has been the touchstone for JT International in 2020; and that looks set to continue through 2021. It is also the main reason why a Tier 1 global telecommunications firm, based in the Channel Islands is still going from strength to strength on the world stage. JT International is a small, but expert, team who can move swiftly to respond to the needs of our global customers; and who can also quickly pivot to maximise changes in the market. Something we have certainly seen in 2020. Worldwide travel was reduced because of COVID-19 restrictions, diminishing the need for travel SIMs that enable customers to connect cost-effectively to a local network while abroad; however the connected devices market has seen a massive growth. Working from home has accelerated the need for machines to communicate between each other without human intervention.
During 2020 the JT International team continued to connect customers’ devices and deliver some outstanding new products in the field of eSIM, which helps customers customise their connectivity remotely. As human access has been restricted by virus control regimes, our customers have relied on equipment – such as remote cleaning machines – to do the job instead; and JT International’s role is to enable that kit to be connected, controlled, and monitored. Throughout 2020 people across the world have relied even more heavily on their technology - which also brings with it the risk of cyber-crime.
