About the Committee

The Data Centre & Data Centre Interconnection Committee is the FTTH Council Europe's newest committee, established to reflect the Council's expanded remit across data centres and the fibre infrastructure that connects them.

The Committee's current work programme includes a report on hollow core fibre (HCF) and multi-core fibre (MCF), a DCI market study developed with the Board, and updates to the Market Panorama to capture the Council's broader scope. Alongside this, the Committee is developing a programme of educational webinars for members on AI-driven data centres, covering the underlying drivers and market trends, internal data centre architectures and wider interconnection architectures.

The Committee also leads the data centre and interconnection content at the annual FTTH Conference, shaping several hours of programming across the full breadth of the Council's expanded remit. 
Further outputs will follow, including new assets, market studies and content developed for the upcoming FTTH Conference. Click here and join us!

The FTTH council Europe was a Partner of Network X, a firmly comprehensive B2B telco event, which took place on 24-26 October in Paris. As part of the partnership, the FTTH Council Europe involved in two sessions: a panel conversation titled "Driving Green Digital Transformation: Collaborative strategies for ICT sector emissions reduction", featuring high-level representatives from ITU and Orange Group, and a workshop session titled "Pathways to Digital Green Future: Digital targets, investments, and sustainability", divided into three distinct sessions. The first session, titled "Policy and Regulation", was hosted by our Public Affairs Director Arturs Alksnis and featured c-level representatives from Digiworld, OECD and Open Fiber, for a conversation on the drivers and hurdles for fibre deployment and adoption in the EU. The second session provided insights from the rapidly evolving landscape of FTTH investments and the third session turned its attention to the sustainability issue and the best practices to achieve carbon neutrality in our industry.
