Chaired by Kay Killmann (Managing Director, GBCI), the committee brings together a diverse group of experienced professionals dedicated to advancing sustainability in the built environment. The founding members include:
Christian Donath – Managing Director, ECO Platform
Lauren Wallace – Director of Sustainability, Epsten Group, a Salas O’Brien Company

During the meeting, members shared their expertise and motivations for supporting CSC’s work. The CSC management team also provided an overview of current priorities and presented key thematic focus areas, including academic outreach, stakeholder engagement, and first ideas for a U.S. market growth strategy.
The Advisory Committee will serve as a strategic sounding board to support CSC’s continuous development, innovation, and impact across the concrete and construction value chain.
