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.

Investments & ESG Committee: An Integrated View of Fibre Investment

Jul 24, 2026
Committee News | Investors Committee |

The new Investments & ESG Committee aims to provide an integrated perspective on the key issues shaping fibre investment. Alongside continuing to publish core assets such as the Investment Tracker, the Committee will analyse the market trends that can drive investment forward — in particular, emerging consolidation trends and the regulatory and commercial best practices that accelerate take-up. Given evolving technological demands, it will also examine how FTTH-enabled technologies can attract new sources of finance.

The Committee continues to engage with EU and international institutions on the inclusion of FTTH in the Taxonomy Regulation and on circularity, unlocking the potential of sustainable finance. Diversity and inclusion will remain a core part of its work: the recently published ESG, Green Finance and KPIs Survey 2025/2026 shows that integrating ESG into corporate strategy eases access to finance and supports long-term growth.
