On the occasion of its 20th anniversary, the FTTH Council Europe is launching a new set of awards to recognise exhibiting sponsors at FTTH Conference 2024.
The FTTH Innovation Awards complement our existing FTTH Awards and recognise the most innovative FTTH products and solutions that are shaping Europe’s digital future and contributing to FTTH Council Europe objectives.
There are five categories available and they reflect the broad range of FTTH connectivity (vendor products and service solutions) presenting the wide variety of solutions available in the FTTH ecosystem. We are seeking ‘innovative’ FTTH products and services which are aligned with the FTTH Council Europe’s objectives.

By 24 February 2024, the Conference and Workshop speakers will then be invited to vote for the winner of each category (3 weeks before the Conference 2024, to allow any senior representatives time to book travel to enable them to collect their award at the conference.
The award winners will be presented on stage in the main conference room, in front of hundreds of delegates, after the lunch break on the second day of the Conference, Thursday 21 March 2024.
Shortlisted companies will receive exposure through press releases and other promotional materials and may also feature special flag banners in front of their exhibition stand to advertise themselves as shortlisted for one of the five FTTH Innovation Awards.
