Panel Discussion - How is fibre investment evolving, and when can we expect consolidation?

25 Feb 2025
Caribbean Ballroom
Metro Connect 2025

We have seen significant investment into fibre, driving new deployments and rapid improvement in connectivity across the US. However, the penetration rates for some ISPs have been lower than expected, reducing the rate of return. Find out:

  • How are investors evaluating their investments across fibre infrastructure?
  • What is driving multiples, and could we return to the peaks seen in recent years? 
  • When can we expect to see consolidation and what impact is the cost of capital having on M&A activity?
