The FTTH Council Europe has seven active Committees and a Working Group, covering a wide range of fibre-related topics and industry priorities. The Committees and Working Group of the FTTH Council Europe are instrumental in driving the organization’s mission to advance FTTH technology across the continent. By harnessing expertise, shaping policy, strategizing market development, and promoting collaboration, these groups ensure that the Council remains a leading force in the telecommunications industry. Their strategic importance cannot be overstated, as they lay the foundation for a connected, digital Europe where high-speed internet access is a reality for all.

By mean of this series of interviews with Committee and Working Group Chairs, the FTTH Council Europe aims at fostering a sense of community and collaboration among its Members. Committees and Working Group provide a platform for networking, knowledge sharing, and collaborative problem-solving. This collective effort not only accelerates innovation but also builds a robust support system for member organizations, enhancing their capabilities and competitiveness in the market. This is way the efforts and engagement of their individual members deserve the spotlight.

Key trends facing the FTTH ecosystem analysed in new reports from the FTTH Council Europe and its partners

France, the United Kingdom, Italy, Turkey and Spain are the fastest growing markets in terms of new Fibre-to-the-Home/Building (FTTH/FTTB) subscribers, according to the ‘European FTTH/B Market Panorama 2025’ published by the FTTH Council Europe.

Published ahead of the annual FTTH Conference (Amsterdam, 25-27 March 2025), the report details the notable progress made across Europe last year, with the number of homes passed with FTTH/FTTB across EU39 increasing by 25 million between September 2023 to September 2024. The FTTH/B take up rate also raised to 53% in the EU39 area during this period (up by 3,4 percentage points from the previous year). However the report also indicates that more must be done to reach the European Commision’s 2030 Digital Decade objectives, as only 1 in 4 countries within the region have a penetration rate beyond 50%.
