Tim S.a.
One of Brazil's biggest mobile and broadband carriers, TIM Brasil offers cell plans, home internet, and digital services to millions of Brazilians under the TIM brand. It arrived in 1995, after the breakup of the state-owned Telebrás system, and began selling service in 1998 — becoming the first Brazilian mobile operator to cover every state by 2002. Fun quirk: its name stands for Telecom Italia Mobile, and the Italian parent even brought Web inventor Tim Berners-Lee to its 2016 rebranding event.
