TIM S.p.A. (formerly Telecom Italia) is the incumbent Italian telecommunications operator headquartered in Rome and one of the largest telcos in Europe. The group operates fixed and mobile networks across Italy under the TIM Consumer and TIM Enterprise brands, runs TIM Brasil (the second-largest mobile operator in Brazil), and owns a portfolio of technology subsidiaries including Sparkle (international connectivity and quantum-safe infrastructure), Noovle (cloud), Telsy (cybersecurity), and Olivetti (IT services). TIM exposes its mobile network as a programmable platform through the developer.tim.it portal in Italy and through TIM Open Gateway in Brazil, both implementing CAMARA-standard network APIs (SIM Swap, Number Verification, Know Your Customer, IP-to-MSISDN, IP-to- Number, Device Location) jointly defined by the Linux Foundation, TM Forum, and GSMA. These APIs let banks, fintechs, insurers, retailers, and online services authenticate users, detect SIM-swap fraud, verify customer identity, and locate devices using TIM's mobile network as the trust anchor. As of late 2025 TIM Brasil reported 50 million Open Gateway API queries across its catalog.
