MILAN, April 1 (Reuters) - FiberCop, created to manage Telecom Italia’s (TIM) ‘last mile’ grid and open it up to other operators, became fully operational on Thursday, as the country’s biggest phone group leads efforts to close a digital divide with the rest of Europe.
In 2019, Italy ranked 24 out of 28 European Union member states in its take-up of ultrafast internet of at least 100 megabytes, the Digital Economy and Society Index (DESI) found.
FiberCop, into which TIM transferred its copper last mile network connecting street cabinets to people’s homes and also the fiber assets from a joint venture with Fastweb, is meant to help facilitate a switch to fast fibre connectivity.

Glovo said it would use the funds to expand further in the 20 markets where it operates. It will also focus on its Q-commerce division as part of a goal of growing ultra-fast deliveries across the 850 cities where the app operates.
