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.

Panel discussion at DSA Global Summit 2024

Event: DSA Global Summit
Speaker: Vincent Garnier - Director General 
Date: 23 September, 2024
Location: Geneva, Switzerland
Organiser: Dynamic Spectrum Alliance (DSA)


The DSA Global Summit served as the premier global event bringing together leading regulators, spectrum authorities, industry experts and academics to discuss the opportunities and challenges with enabling spectrum sharing through the use of dynamic access technologies.

The 2024 Summit composed a regulator-only workshop on September 24 and public keynote addresses and panel sessions on September 23 - 24. The unique structure of the DSA Global Summit allowed Regulators and spectrum authorities to meet with other Regulators and spectrum authorities from across the globe to discuss spectrum management challenges while gave the space for in-depth discussion on both technical and policy issues. The second part of the event was dedicated to band-specific use cases and innovation on spectrum management.

Mr. Garnier participated in the panel Spectrum management with a user-centric approach - End Users. This session focused on the evolving landscape of spectrum management with a user-centric perspective. Some of the addressed key questions were:

  • How are users accessing the Internet? What does Internet traffic indicate? What is the relationship between indoor and outdoor traffic? How does it change for developed markets, islands, and LDD?
  • How can innovative spectrum management frameworks contribute to ensuring that users get meaningful connectivity?
  • What are the user expectations in terms of broadband access?
  • How can dynamic spectrum access enhance end-user experience by providing reliable, high-speed connectivity across various devices and locations?
  • What is the role of different technologies in addressing users' requirements?

Help us create a brighter future!
