HAMILTON, Bermuda – 28 May 2026: Paradise Mobile is once again making Bermuda a player in the global technology and telecommunications scene, following the appointment of its Co-Founder and Chief Technology Officer, Zlatko Zahirović, as Deputy Chair of the GSMA North America Terminals Working Group. This appointment means a Bermuda-based operator is now actively helping guide the technical strategy for how mobile devices function across North America.
The GSMA is the definitive global organisation representing the interests of mobile network operators and the wider tech industry worldwide, uniting over 750 mobile networks to establish international standards.
Within the GSMA, the Terminals Working Group brings together global tech giants, phone manufacturers, microchip creators and telecom carriers to ensure devices and mobile networks work well together. As Deputy Chair, Zahirović will help lead these high-level collaborations, directly shaping the everyday mobile experience, software behaviour and roaming capabilities for millions of users.
Leadership positions within global standards groups are typically held by much larger international operators and technology companies. This appointment is a testament to the strong reputation Zahirović and his engineering team have earned. While building Bermuda’s most advanced network, Paradise has successfully solved complex tech challenges, including enabling international phone variants to connect perfectly to local networks.
‘It’s an honour to represent Paradise Mobile and Bermuda in a role that directly influences the future of mobile technology across North America," said Zlatko Zahirović. ‘Most people don’t realise how much coordination happens behind the scenes just to ensure a smartphone works perfectly when you turn it on, activate a plan or travel abroad. Our focus in this group is to cut through the complexity, making devices more reliable, easier to use and faster to adopt next-generation features. Bringing Bermuda’s unique perspective to this international stage allows us to champion better connectivity for everyday users everywhere.’
This announcement follows a busy period of global thought leadership for Zahirović, who recently shared his tech expertise at the second annual BUILD conference in Bermuda and presented at the GSMA North America working group sessions over the last fortnight.
