The FTTH Council Europe has been monitoring annually the evolution of full-fibre deployment throughout Europe since 2012. This essential work has been driven by the Market Intelligence Committee which publishes our flagship report FTTH/B Market Panorama, complete with FTTH Forecasts for Europe. The survey is commissioned through an external partner and the role of the Committee is to complete and refine these data based on the comprehensive input coming from the network of experts from our 150 members active in all European countries.

FTTH members have access to a more detailed version of the report with granular information regarding the individual FTTH markets in each of the 39 countries surveyed.

Two more reports have been produced under initiative of the Market Intelligence Committee, and launched during the last FTTH Virtual Conference 2021: the latest figures of the FTTH Forecasts for 2021 and 2026 and an overview of fibre deployments in rural areas.

The Market Intelligence Committee is also involved in other studies such as Copper Switch Off, Best Practices in Fibre advertising and the Socio Economic Impact of FTTH.

Biography:

I have over 30 years of experience in the telecommunications industry. My career has provided insight into many of the functions that concern FTTH Council Europe members. From manufacturing to network design, from installation to asset management software. I have insight into what it takes to get fibre to the home even in the most rural locations. I was responsible for provisioning fibre to remote radio telescopes across the UK to deliver the national e-MERLIN facility in 2004. I have led many diverse teams to success. This has taught me the value of collaboration and how to galvanise groups around an idea. My style is collaborative and collegial. I think getting things done requires an agreeable manner and a desire to listen and engage with others respectfully and in good faith. I currently work for Corning as their Senior Market and Technology Development Manager with a focus on Access Networks and Single-Mode and Bend Fiber. I was a lead actor in bringing SMF-28 Contour fibre to market.

Position statement:

I am currently the chair of the FTTH Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Committee and work tirelessly to bring talent, wherever it may come from, into our industry. I have been an active contributor to the FTTH Council Europe diversity initiatives for the past few years. I’d like to combine my professional and personal interests as a member of the board for the FTTH Council Europe to advocate for fibre broadband for everyone and support the development of diversity in our industry. I have been a advocate of fibre in my proffessional life for many years and I want to continue to advocate for fibre for all to bring prosperity to our regions and countries and to support our industry to success.
