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.

In-Home Broadband Excellence Committee: Building on the Conference Momentum

Jul 24, 2026
Committee News | In-Home Broadband Excellence Committee |

The In-Home Broadband Excellence Committee is carrying forward the momentum built at the FTTH Conference in London, where its workshop set out the challenges and opportunities shaping the future of in-home connectivity. The central message was that the future of broadband excellence is won inside the home: fibre rollout is advancing rapidly and Wi-Fi technology is mature, yet the data continues to show significant experience gaps at the end-user level. 

The Committee's work reflects that reality, delivering on the promise of gigabit connectivity takes more than network deployment alone, and requires the industry to align spectrum policy, engineering practices, data-driven insights and sustainable commercial models so that performance reaches the device itself. Consumers do not experience access speeds; they experience performance, making consistently strong in-home experiences a shared responsibility across the ecosystem, from operators and vendors to policymakers and service providers. 

Building on this, the Committee continues to drive industry alignment through its guides, workshops and webinars, turning network capability into real-world quality of experience for the end user.
