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.

Panel 17 - Attracting talents to the FTTH industry

Attracting and retaining talent is more critical than ever for our industry, where a lack of human resources potentially slowing down national deployment plans. Skilled labour has therefore become a critical resource for the entire value chain, and operators and vendors alike are rethinking their human resources strategies to adapt to this new paradigm.
 
In this session, we give the floor to leaders in charge of business and talent management, as well as financial strategies, for a comprehensive discussion on how to attract and manage talents in the FTTH industry.


Speakers: Adam Błażeczek - CFO at Fiberhost, Annick Martin - Managing Director at BESIX Unitec, Eusebi Llensa - CEO at Outvise, and Ivan Rebernik - Director of Human Resources, Organization and Facility at Open Fiber - moderated by Christel Sandstedt - 2022 Chair Woman in Fibre Committee at FTTH Council Europe
