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.

FTTH Conference 2021 to be held in virtual format on 15-16 September

Brussels, 27 April 2021. With just over five months to go to the planned FTTH Conference 2021 in Berlin, it remains unclear when, and in what form, large international conferences, and exhibitions will be permitted to run. We conclude it impossible to hold the physical event as planned and have decided to run a Virtual Conference on the earlier dates of 15-16 September 2021.

We will target our next physical FTTH Conference 2022 for 29-31 March 2022 in Vienna.

We are postponing the physical FTTH Conference planned for Berlin to 19-21 March 2024.

Help us create a brighter future!
