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.

Deutsche Glasfaser and M-net cooperate to roll out fibre in Bavaria

German regional operator M-net announces a cooperation agreement with Deutsche Glasfaser to expand the FTTH network in Bavarian Swabia and the Munich area to 60,000 households and businesses within 12 to 24 months. The companies will finance the project without costs for customers and municipalities, and without state aid. The requirement for the expansion is a cooperation with the municipalities and a successful pre-marketing phase.
