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 Council Europe joins joint statement calling for stronger recognition of Wi-Fi in the Digital Networks Act

FTTH Council Europe has joined a broad group of organisations from the European connectivity ecosystem in a joint statement calling for stronger recognition of Wi-Fi in the EU Digital Networks Act.

The statement underlines that fibre and Wi-Fi are deeply complementary technologies: fibre brings high-capacity connectivity to buildings, while Wi-Fi distributes that connectivity indoors, where the vast majority of user data is consumed.

Together with the other signatories, FTTH Council Europe calls on co-legislators to strengthen Articles 17, 27 and 28 of the Digital Networks Act to better recognise licence-exempt spectrum and dynamic sharing as strategic components of Europe’s digital infrastructure.
