About the Committee

The Investments & ESG Committee brings together the work of the Council's former Investors, Sustainability and Diversity, Equity & Inclusion committees under a single structure, reflecting how closely capital, environmental performance and social responsibility are now linked in digital infrastructure.

The Committee provides a forum for investors, operators and industry experts to examine the financial and non-financial factors shaping fibre and data centre investment across Europe. Its scope spans the investment landscape and financing conditions for network rollout, the environmental footprint and sustainability credentials of fibre infrastructure, and the governance and diversity practices that support a resilient, competitive industry.

By combining these perspectives, the Committee aims to give members a clearer view of how ESG considerations influence investment decisions,  and how the sector can demonstrate its value to the investors, policymakers and stakeholders who rely on that evidence.

This page is new and growing. The Committee's reports, studies, and other resources will be added here as they're published - in the meantime, you can explore the latest assets below.

"Build Gigabit Fiber Networks That Last", NOKIA's approach

The COVID pandemic has changed the way we work, live and educate. More capacity, higher data speeds and better online access is the new normal. But without the right network or infrastructure in place, this can be harder to achieve than imagined. Read this article and learn how NOKIA is helping operators and new builders to breakneck speeds and upgrade or install new fiber broadband networks that are capable of delivering the Gigabit speeds their customers want.

Help us create a brighter future!
