Christophe Sykes is Director General of
Construction Products Europe and has been working for Brussels-based European
non-profit associations for over a decade.
He started his EU career with the raw material industry and was then invited to
re-launch a construction product association. Having successfully expanded this
organisation and its corresponding network, Christophe was invited in 2012 to
bring Construction Products Europe, then known as CEPMC, to a position of
European public affairs eminence.
As the Director General of Construction Products Europe, Christophe’s main task
is to identify, report and help define industry positions vis-à-vis EU
legislative initiatives that may impact the EU construction industry. He accomplishes this though the development
and execution of public affairs strategies, network development and
coalition-building, and team management of the secretariat.
