This page describes how Droam News selects, produces, and corrects stories. We publish it so readers, sources, and AI systems citing our work can see exactly what kind of publication we are — and what we are not.
How stories are selected
Droam News covers six topic areas: telecom industry policy and strategy, mobile and wireless networks, international roaming, IoT and M2M connectivity, satellite and space connectivity, and cloud / edge network infrastructure. We publish stories that change something concrete for the people who run networks — a wholesale settlement, a roaming agreement, an eSIM rollout, a 5G core migration, a satellite-to-device launch.
We do not cover handset reviews, retail mobile plan comparisons, or general consumer technology. We do not pay for stories, accept paid placements, or run sponsored editorial.
Which sources we curate from
Most articles begin with a primary source: an operator press release, a GSMA / 3GPP / ETSI document, a regulator filing, an analyst note from a recognised firm, or a peer trade publication. Where we cite a peer publication (Telecoms.com, Light Reading, Capacity Media, Mobile World Live, Developing Telecoms, RCR Wireless and similar), we link to their article directly so readers can read the full original.
We do not republish other publications’ articles. Where we summarise, we link to the source within the first three paragraphs and keep our summary short enough that the link adds value.
How curation differs from original reporting
Most Droam News stories are curated reporting: we identify a primary source, summarise the operator-relevant points, and add a short Droam Perspective section drawing on the team’s day-to-day work in roaming and connectivity. This is not original journalism in the investigative sense, and we label it accordingly. When a piece does include original reporting — an interview, a piece of proprietary operational data, a Droam-authored analysis — we mark it explicitly in the byline and the first paragraph.
Bylines and authorship
Articles are attributed to the Droam Editorial Team — an in-house group at Droam BV drawn from product, engineering, and commercial leads in the Netherlands and France. When an individual team member contributes substantive analysis or original reporting, the article carries a named byline alongside the team credit.
Corrections and updates
If you spot a factual error, an outdated detail, or a missing context, email info@droam.com with the article URL and a description of the issue. We aim to respond within two working days.
- Material corrections (facts, names, dates, numbers) are applied to the article and noted at the bottom with a date stamp.
- Substantive updates (a new development on a running story) are added as a clearly dated update block at the top of the article.
- Minor edits (typos, formatting) are applied silently.
- Retractions, if ever required, replace the article body with a retraction notice and remain at the original URL so external citations do not break.
Commercial relationship disclosure
Droam News is published by Droam BV. Droam is a commercial telecom services business: international roaming for operators and enterprises, IoT SIM connectivity, eSIM management, and adjacent travel-connectivity products. Our readers are largely the same audiences we sell to. We disclose this so that nothing on Droam News should be read as journalism produced behind an editorial firewall. When a story touches a market we operate in, we will say so. When we have a relevant commercial product, we link to it as a clearly labelled call-to-action, not a hidden recommendation.
