EVODATA S.R.L.

What EVODATA S.R.L. does

EvoData S.R.L. is a Milan-based IT company that provides end-to-end sports event technology services for professional and amateur competitions. Founded in 2023 through the consolidation of four established Italian sports timing players (SDAM, TDS, SMS/Winning Time, and OTC), the company operates across athletics, road cycling, MTB, triathlon, cross-country skiing, and open water swimming disciplines. It claims to be one of the largest sports timing providers globally, serving over 1,200 events annually and timing more than 1 million athletes per year, supported by 300+ collaborators and 10 corporate offices across Italy.

The core technology stack combines proprietary software with integrated hardware. Proprietary platforms include OVR (On Venue Results) for real-time result distribution across TV graphics, LED walls, prints, and mobile apps; CIS (Commentator Information System) for live event data access by broadcasters; TSR (Timing & Scoring) which processes transponder, photofinish, and photocell data into starting lists and results; and ENDUpix for participant photo retrieval via facial recognition. Hardware components include active, passive, and disposable transponders, photofinish cameras, photocells, and GPS trackers. Registration and accreditation services are integrated with ENDU.net, a sports platform reaching 400,000+ enthusiasts, while MyLaps supplies core timing infrastructure and Compos Sport produces physical race materials (bibs, signage, bike plates).

EvoData's revenue model is project-based professional services, with pricing structured per event or per service module via a "Request a Quote" pathway rather than publicly disclosed rates. Revenue is generated across three service streams: (1) Timing & Scoring services for multiple sports disciplines, (2) Registration & Accreditation services (often bundled through ENDU), and (3) Live Results & Media services (OVR, CIS, TV graphics, GPS, photo/video) sold as add-on modules. Distribution is hybrid: direct enterprise sales to event organizers combined with indirect reach via the ENDU platform. The company is domiciled in Italy as an SRL (Società a Responsabilità Limitata) private limited company, is subject to AGCOM telecommunications regulation, and shows no evidence of institutional capital raises.
