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.

Market Intelligence Committee Publishes Key Updates and Launches New Observatory Report

Apr 30, 2026
Committee News | Market Intelligence Committee |

The Market Intelligence Committee has published the latest update of its core assets ahead of the FTTH Conference 2026, with a final refinement scheduled for release in early May. This last update includes minor adjustments for one country based on recent feedback. The combination of strong download figures and limited revisions highlights the high quality and robustness of both the report and its underlying data.

In parallel, the Committee will release the Per Country Report and introduce a new “Observatory” report—a concise document consolidating key figures and highlights from across existing outputs. This new format is designed to provide stakeholders with a quick and accessible overview of the most relevant insights.

Engagement with MIC outputs remains strong. A pre-Conference webinar attracted around 400 participants, while the MIC workshop at the FTTH Conference 2026 welcomed 290 attendees, confirming sustained interest in the Committee’s work.

These developments reinforce the Committee’s role in delivering reliable, accessible market intelligence to support informed decision-making across the fibre sector.
