Regional players

• Sercomtel: Regional telecom operator in Londrina/PR offering fixed telephony, fiber broadband and mobile services — comparable to SCNET as a smaller regional player competing against national carriers.
• Copel Telecom: Telecom arm of Copel in Paraná, offering fiber internet and telephony to residential and enterprise customers — comparable regional fiber/telephony ISP comparable to SCNET's footprint-style model.
• Algar Telecom: Regional telecom operator (Minas Gerais / Triângulo Mineiro) providing fiber, fixed telephony and enterprise services — comparable to SCNET in operating in a defined regional footprint rather than nationwide.

Broad incumbents

• Claro (América Móvil): National telecom incumbent providing fiber broadband (Claro Net), mobile and fixed telephony — directly competes with SCNET's residential internet and telephony services at the national level.
• Vivo (Telefônica Brasil): Largest national telecom carrier offering fiber (Vivo Fibra), fixed telephony and mobile across Brazil — broad incumbent that competes head-on with SCNET in its SC cities with much larger capex and bundles.
• TIM Brasil: Primarily mobile carrier but expanding into residential fiber (TIM Live) in selected regions — comparable to SCNET's fiber and telephony bundle thesis as a national player encroaching on regional ISPs.
• Oi: Major Brazilian telecom carrier offering fixed telephony (STFC), broadband and fiber services — competes with SCNET on both internet and the fixed telephone (STFC) plans that are a core SCNET offering.

Direct peers

• Brisanet: Brazilian regional fiber ISP with retail FTTH plans, telecom services and aggressive expansion in the Northeast — comparable business model and product set to SCNET, albeit at much larger scale and in a different region.
• Unifique: Direct competitor fiber ISP also headquartered in Santa Catarina, offering residential FTTH and telephony in overlapping SC municipalities — the closest like-for-like regional fiber ISP comparable to SCNET.
• Desktop / Desktop Fiber (now BRZ Telecom): Regional fiber ISP in southern Brazil serving residential and SMB customers with FTTH and telephony — comparable product mix, target customer and operating model to SCNET.
