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 7 - Fibre Networks Resilience

As critical infrastructure, FTTH networks play a vital role in Europe’s digital ecosystem. However, they still face significant challenges in terms of resilience against security threats, extreme climate events, and recurring maintenance issues that can impact network quality. This panel will explore the current state of FTTH network resilience, examining how the industry is addressing vulnerabilities and improving network robustness.

Experts will discuss strategies to enhance security protocols, mitigate the effects of climate-related disruptions, and ensure continuous, high-quality service. Join this session to learn about the future of resilient FTTH networks in an increasingly unpredictable world.


Speakers: Alessandro Gropelli - Director General at Connect Europe, Paul Naastepad - Managing Director at Eurofiber Netherlands, Trevor Linney - Network Technology Director at Openreach, Virginie Géradin - Fiber Network Department Lead at Proximus, Yuriy Kurmaz - Chief Executive Officer at UKRTELECOM JSC, Franck Chevalier - Co-head of Technology Consulting at Analysys Mason (moderator)
