Lidl and 1GLOBAL: Shaping the Future of Mobile Connectivity Together

 NECKARSULM, Germany - Monday, 13. April 2026 AETOSWire 

Exclusive partnership to expand the Lidl Connect offering

Redefining mobile freedom: Maximizing people’s flexibility through simple, digital, and affordable mobile plans

Partnership offers new growth opportunities for established telecommunications providers

 

(BUSINESS WIRE)--1GLOBAL, a pioneer in global telecommunications solutions, and the companies of the Schwarz Group, one of the world’s largest retail groups, are entering into a comprehensive strategic partnership. To this end, the companies of the Schwarz Group are acquiring a 9.9 percent stake in 1GLOBAL. The company will serve as the exclusive technology partner for mobile connectivity for the next five years.

Against this background, 1GLOBAL and Lidl, one of Europe’s leading food retailers, will drive the digital transformation in the telecommunications market. With the help of Lidl Connect and Lidl Plus, the two companies will jointly introduce national connectivity services in Lidl’s markets.

Partnership Enables New Telecommunications Offerings from Lidl

Together with 1GLOBAL, Lidl is addressing a key need among telecommunications users: easily accessible, flexible, and affordable connectivity of the highest quality without long-term contract commitments. The solution and core of the partnership: Lidl will become a Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO) itself, enabling it to offer mobile services to its customers independently. In collaboration with 1GLOBAL, Lidl will enter into partnerships with local mobile network operators to respond flexibly to local requirements.

Together, 1GLOBAL and Lidl are transforming the industry and expanding the overall telecommunications market: established network operators benefit as partners from Lidl’s reach, growth, and higher utilization, while Lidl handles customer acquisition and service. As a fully regulated telecommunications provider, 1GLOBAL supplies the technical platform as well as telecommunications licenses and partnerships with mobile network operators in twelve countries, which are expected to expand to over 30 countries in the future.

In addition, the strategic partnership includes the development of innovative telco solutions on STACKIT, the Schwarz Group’s cloud solution. Data sovereignty, particularly regarding the secure handling of customer data, is a top priority here.

Hakan Koç, founder and CEO of 1GLOBAL, explains: “Lidl is the partner that shares our vision: We want to make mobile communications as intuitive, flexible, and digital as possible for millions of people. Our technology focuses on digital offerings tailored to the needs of users and their various devices. We want to successfully drive the technological transformation of the global telecommunications market in the best interests of people.”

Julian Beer, Executive Vice President of Purchasing at Lidl International: “We are democratizing mobile communications. Simple, affordable, and of the highest quality. We are very much looking forward to collaborating with 1GLOBAL. This partnership enables us to become active as an MVNO ourselves. In doing so, we are setting new standards and making affordable mobile communications easier than ever for our customers. By integrating state-of-the-art technology, we can meet the needs of millions of customers for uncomplicated connectivity for their devices. Thanks to our reach of well over 12,000 stores and more than 100 million customers in our Lidl Plus loyalty app, we are creating an attractive platform for established telecommunications companies.

Synergy of customer and market advantages

Lidl has been offering prepaid mobile plans through Lidl Connect since 2015. As part of the collaboration with 1GLOBAL, Lidl Plus, Lidl’s digital customer card, will also play a central role. Lidl Plus is available in all European Lidl countries. For millions of people, Lidl is a trusted partner in everyday life. In the future, this will also include an affordable, high-quality mobile phone plan without long-term contracts, as well as the ability to easily manage their services via the Lidl Plus app.

“With this step, we are consistently evolving our loyalty app into a lifestyle companion for our customers and, with affordable connectivity, creating an offering that is relevant for the entire family. We are integrating this seamlessly with our core business,” says Julian Beer.

Interim Data From Two Ongoing Investigator-initiated Trials Highlight the Role of Sculptra® and Restylane® in Addressing Aesthetic Changes Associated With Weight Loss Medications and Menopause

  ZUG, Switzerland - Thursday, 09. April 2026 AETOSWire 

New interim results from a six-month investigator-initiated trial (IIT) supported by Galderma, regarding the clinical sequencing of women in menopause, show the combination of Restylane Skinboosters™ and Sculptra drove meaningful improvements in skin barrier function, hydration and patient satisfaction, with the most pronounced gains in hydration – a critical factor for perimenopausal skin health – observed when using Restylane Skinboosters first1

New interim data from a separate IIT show the cellular composition of adipose (fat) tissue may be altered in patients experiencing aesthetic changes in the abdomen following medication-driven weight loss, offering a biological explanation for clinician‑reported volume loss beyond weight reduction alone, and underscoring the importance of including regenerative aesthetic treatments as part of the patients’ weight loss journey2

These data reinforce Galderma’s continuous support of independent research, in order to deliver holistic, individualized and science-led solutions that address growing patient needs, such as aesthetic changes related to menopause and medication-driven weight loss

 

(BUSINESS WIRE) -- Galderma (SIX: GALD), the pure-play dermatology category leader, today welcomes new data from two IITs, demonstrating the power of Sculptra – the first proven regenerative biostimulator – and the company’s versatile hyaluronic acid injectable Restylane range, in addressing the aesthetic changes associated with menopause and medication-driven weight loss, for the face and body.1-7 Data includes an analysis from a first-of-its-kind study evaluating optimal treatment sequencing to enhance women’s skin during menopause, and an evaluation of the cellular makeup of fat in the abdomen following medication-driven weight loss.1,2

The two IITs were designed and executed by Dr. Andreas Nikolis and Dr. Sabrina Fabi respectively.1,2 Galderma proudly supported the IITs as part of its long‑standing commitment to understanding patients’ evolving needs and supporting to deliver the best solutions for optimal patient outcomes. This approach to evidence generation, informed by real‑world needs, and enabled by the broadest Injectable Aesthetics portfolio in the industry, is designed to support advancements at every stage of the patient journey.

Menopause: Dual‑sequence study shows meaningful skin quality improvements and growing patient satisfaction with both Restylane Skinboosters and Sculptra

New interim results from a nine‑month clinical sequencing IIT of women in menopause conducted by Dr. Andreas Nikolis, both on the face and the décolletage, demonstrated that the combination of Restylane Skinboosters and Sculptra drove progressive and meaningful improvements in skin quality, with the most pronounced gains in hydration seen when using Restylane Skinboosters first.1 Hydration is a critical factor in menopausal skin health, as highlighted in an international survey of peri- and post-menopausal women as within their top five skin concerns for face and their number one concern for body.1,8,9

The data reinforce the relevance and synergistic effects of the two products, with Skinboosters driving faster extra-cellular matrix and elastin-associated effects to quickly deliver hydration and improvements in skin roughness, fine lines and other imperfections, and Sculptra delivering regenerative benefits across all three skin layers, helping to gradually restore volume, firmness, radiance and skin quality, and smoothing wrinkles and folds over time.1,3-7,10-12

Results showed that facial hydration and measures of skin‑barrier function improved over time in both groups, and the improvements were mirrored by patient‑reported outcomes, with satisfaction scores rising consistently across the study and reaching high levels by Month 6.1 Together, these data show that both treatment sequences contribute to measurable improvements in skin health in women during menopause, and they provide insight into how the treatment protocol may be optimized for this specific patient group.1

 

“Menopause is associated with a distinct and often under-recognized set of skin changes, including dryness, barrier dysfunction, and progressive declines in skin quality. This first-of-its-kind clinical study is helping address an important unmet need by generating objective data in a population that has historically been overlooked in aesthetic research. The interim findings are highly encouraging, demonstrating meaningful improvements in skin hydration and collagen-related skin quality over time. Equally important, these measurable clinical benefits are mirrored by rising patient satisfaction throughout the study. For clinicians, these early results offer valuable evidence-based insight into how we can better support aging menopausal patients with treatment strategies that are tailored to the biologic changes of this stage of life.”

Aesthetic changes associated with medication-driven weight loss: New insights on cellular changes underscore importance of regenerative treatments that work across skin layers

New interim IIT data show that in patients experiencing aesthetic changes in the abdomen associated with medication-driven weight loss, the cellular composition of adipose tissue is altered, offering a biological explanation for the volume changes increasingly reported by clinicians.2 This underscores the value of regenerative treatment approaches, to support a healthy-looking appearance following medication-driven weight loss.2 The IIT, conducted by Dr. Sabrina Fabi, evaluated 20 female patients with mild-to-moderate skin laxity on their abdomen.2

Interim results demonstrated a statistically significant, four‑fold reduction in adipose‑derived stem cells (ADSCs), the regenerative cell population responsible for maintaining healthy fat tissue, when compared to those who were not taking prescription weight loss medication.2 Fibroblasts were preserved. These findings contribute to a broader understanding of how the skin profile in individuals experiencing aesthetic changes associated with medication-driven weight loss differs from those where changes are occurring naturally with age without having taken prescription weight loss medications, and highlight why patients may benefit from treatment plans that focus not just on replacing lost volume, but on supporting the tissues’ underlying regenerative capacity.2,13 Galderma is well‑positioned to address these alterations across the face and body, given its expertise in dermatology, specialized range of injectable treatments and skincare products, and patient‑centric approach developed in close collaboration with leading healthcare professionals. Sculptra is the first proven regenerative biostimulator, backed by over 25 years of clinical use.3-7 With a unique poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA-SCA™) formulation, Sculptra re-engages the skin’s renewal process, stimulating adipose tissue, collagen and elastin for healthy looking skin.3-7 Over the decades, it has evolved into a versatile treatment that delivers regenerative benefits across all three skin layers, helping to gradually restore volume, firmness, radiance and skin quality, and smoothing wrinkles and folds over time.3-7,12

 

“Many people experiencing medication-driven weight loss report aesthetic changes that seem disproportionate to weight loss alone, and until now, we haven’t fully understood why. The findings from this IIT suggest shifts in the skin and adipose‑tissue profile that may help explain the volume‑related changes clinicians are seeing. By clarifying the biological underpinnings, we can better guide treatment planning, and the available science indicates that regenerative and adipose tissue‑stimulating treatments such as Sculptra, can play a critical role in supporting healthy‑looking volume and appearance. This insight gives clinicians a stronger, evidence‑based foundation for thoughtful, individualized treatment discussions with their patients across their weight loss journey.”
