Cambridge, England – September 23, 2026 -- Kigen has become the first company to achieve GSMA eUICC Security Assurance (eSA) certification for an automotive eSIM supporting SGP.32 v1.3, GSMA's latest IoT eSIM specification, giving connected-vehicle manufacturers a standards-current security platform for fleets requiring decade-plus service life.

The certification pairs Kigen's eSIM OS with Infineon's TEGRION SLI22 automotive security controller. It extends Kigen's certified portfolio across the TEGRION SLx22 chip family into three products: Automotive (SLI22), Consumer (SLC22, supporting SGP.22 v2.7), and Industrial IoT (SLM22, supporting SGP.32 v1.3). All three share a common OS, hardware platform, development tools and management stack, letting OEMs apply one security architecture across infotainment, telematics and headless vehicle systems.

Dallas – September 23, 2026 -- LeoSight has partnered with Axis Communications to natively integrate Axis video management and body-worn camera systems into LeoCommand, its situational awareness platform for public safety agencies.

Axis video feeds now merge with officer and vehicle data on a single operational map

The integration pulls live video, metadata, and sensor intelligence from AXIS Camera Station Pro, Axis IP cameras, and Axis body-worn solutions directly into LeoCommand. This visual data joins officer locations, vehicle telemetry, drone feeds, and other connected public safety systems on one unified operational map, according to the companies.

Toronto – – September 23, 2026 -- PomeGran Inc. has launched The Fibre Files, a podcast series examining how fibre connectivity shapes economic development, entrepreneurship and education in rural and underserved Canadian communities.

PomeGran ties infrastructure rollout to community outcomes through new media platform

The series is hosted by broadcaster Sam Laprade and sponsored by PomeGran, a fibre-centric broadband infrastructure provider active in rural Quebec and Northern Ontario. Episodes will stream on Spotify and on YouTube via NIVO, PomeGran's consumer internet service provider brand, with distribution across both companies' digital channels.

Inaugural episode features strategy consultancy partner on rural entrepreneurship

The first episode, "Beyond Broadband: What Connectivity Means to Rural Communities,

San Jose, Calif. – September 23, 2026 -- Cisco and Omdia research finds that 95% of enterprises say their existing AIOps tools cannot keep pace with current network demands, while more than half have already shifted to AgenticOps, where AI agents act autonomously in production network environments.

Daily alert volumes have outpaced human capacity to respond

The average organization generates about 4,100 monitoring alerts and events daily, more than half of them network related. Clearing that backlog manually would require roughly 100 IT specialists. Nearly half of network alerts are closed without investigation, and a similar share of investigation time is spent chasing false positives.

Shanghai – September 23, 2026 -- Huawei used a dedicated session at HUAWEI CONNECT 2026 to lay out a new architecture for wide area networks (WAN) built for AI-driven traffic, unveiling its Stellar AI Integrated Data WAN Solution and a jointly published white paper with GlobalData on intelligent WAN design for the agentic AI era.

Legacy WAN architecture cannot absorb AI's unpredictable traffic spikes, GlobalData warns

Dustin Kehoe, Head of AMEA Tech Research at GlobalData, told attendees that AI workloads generate massive, real-time data flows that conventional networks were never designed to handle. He said AI requires distributed, edge-enabled frameworks that process data closer to its source to cut latency and optimize bandwidth, alongside deterministic performance guarantees at a granular level.

Malaga – – September 22, 2026 -- Lightera confirmed its Multicore Fiber (MCF) technology is part of the OIF multi-vendor interoperability demonstration at ECOC 2026, running on stand 2126 in Malaga, Spain.

Lightera's MCF cuts fiber count by 75% versus conventional single-mode fiber

The company is supporting both a 500-meter and a 50-kilometer MCF demonstration using its 4-core, 125 μm clad diameter fiber, built with 40 μm pitch and ITU-T G.657.A2-compliant cores. According to Lightera, the design reduces fiber count by 75% compared to conventional single-mode fiber (SMF) and cuts weight and space requirements by up to four times.

Amsterdam – September 22, 2026 -- Telit Cinterion demonstrated an integrated cellular-GNSS positioning system achieving 1-2 centimeter average precision, using cellular-delivered correction data instead of dedicated satellite hardware. The IoT solutions provider is showcasing the technology at Booth M6 during The Things Conference 2026, running Sept. 22-23 at De Kromhouthal in Amsterdam.

Cellular module delivers centimeter-level GNSS corrections over standard network connections

The demonstration runs on a CMB100 development kit built around Telit Cinterion's CMB100 LTE Cat 1 bis module. Using AT commands processed through the kit's onboard ST microcontroller, the module establishes a network connection via a Telit Cinterion NExT SIM and downloads Skylark Nx RTK MSM5 GNSS correction data from Swift Navigation through NTRIP (Networked Transport of RTCM via Internet Protocol).
