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.

For the Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Committee, Barbara Tonarelli was reconfirmed as Committee Chair. Following the General Assembly, the Committee hosted a webinar presenting the results of recent surveys and sharing ten practical recommendations — from awareness to action — to Grow Your FTTH Business with Environments Where Everyone Thrives. The webinar is available on YouTube and on the FTTH Council website.
