Who we are

FiberCop runs Italy’s most advanced, extensive and pervasive digital network infrastructure.

With nearly 28 million kilometres of fibre optic cable already laid – a distance equal to more than 700 times the Earth’s circumference – and ultra-broadband coverage reaching over 96% of active lines, the company provides high-performance connectivity to households, businesses and public administrations.

The FTTH (Fibre To The Home) network reaches about 46% of premises in the country, ensuring speed and reliability.

A unique case in Europe

FiberCop is the first example in the European Union of the separation of infrastructure ownership from the incumbent national telecommunications operator.

With 13,7 million active lines (as at December 2025), it is Italy’s leader in fixed broadband access, offering operators reliable and innovative solutions based on a state-of-the-art network that is constantly evolving.

Our network

• Fibre optic: 28 million km laid

• Copper network: over 114.3 million km

• Exchanges: 10,500

• Street cabinets: over 160,000

• Coverage: over 6,200 municipalities reached, of which more than 3.200 are connected in FTTH, covering approximately 14,3 million premises (as at 31 December 2025)

This infrastructure is supported by more than 18,300 professionals across Italy, committed to building the network of the future in line with the objectives of the European Digital Agenda: 1-Gbps connection for the entire population by 2030.

Innovation and sustainability

Innovation and sustainability are the pillars of FiberCop’s strategic development. The company allocates significant resources to the expansion of fibre optics – a more sustainable, future-oriented technology compared with traditional solutions – both in areas already equipped with fibre infrastructure and in those historically served exclusively by copper networks. Investments are also supported by funds from the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (PNRR), under which FiberCop is allocated approximately €2.3 billion. The tenders under the PNRR are key to the country’s technological progress and digitalisation. The projects launched will allow previously disadvantaged areas to benefit from ultra-fast connectivity comparable to that available in major urban centres.

Shareholding structure

FiberCop’s shareholding structure is as follows: 37.8% held by the US fund KKR Infrastructure, 17.5% by the Canadian pension fund CPP Investments, 17.5% by the Abu Dhabi sovereign fund ADIA, 16% by the Italian Ministry of Economy and Finance (MEF), and 11.2% by the Italian infrastructure fund F2i.
