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.

Connected Germany 2024

Germany's connectivity landscape is transforming. The goal is ambitious: to roll out ubiquitous, converged networks with gigabit speeds by the end of 2025. Now more than ever, it is imperative that all those involved in building next-generation networks come together to advance Germany's broadband strategy.

With over 1,800 delegates and 150 speakers, Connected Germany will provide a forum where leading experts, decision makers, outfitters, investors, companies and others can exchange thoughts, discover perspectives and form partnerships.

The FTTH Council Europe is a proud partner of TotalTelecom, organiser of the event. Join us from the 5-6th November in Munich for Connected Germany 2024 where we will forge the connections to build a better connected Germany.

Help us create a brighter future!
