Ex-Innovyze CEO & Autodesk VP Colby Manwaring is the new Chair of Board for One Click LCA. The company also announces the appointments of Chief Revenue Officer, Chief Product Officer, and Chief Financial Officer, from OpenClassrooms, Benify, and Teamtailor, respectively. The new appointments boost One Click LCA’s growth capabilities towards its $100M annual revenue target.

 
Helsinki, Finland (June 17, 2025) One Click LCA, the AI-powered global leader in decarbonization software for construction and manufacturing, today announces Colby Manwaring as its new Chair. Manwaring brings unique experience to the board, having grown his former company, Innovyze, to a successful $1B acquisition by industry leader Autodesk in 2021. Manwaring’s experience with scaling and enterprise offerings will be a critical asset for One Click LCA’s global growth to €100M annual revenue, with rapid expansion planned globally.

The construction sector faces enormous pressure to decarbonize, and One Click LCA’s software removes the friction for manufacturers and designers. I’m excited to help scale this platform globally and build on the momentum toward €100M in revenue.

One Click LCA has also strengthened its executive team with two new appointments. Suzana Delanghe joins the company as Chief Revenue Officer, responsible for driving company growth. She was, until recently, the COO of OpenClassrooms. Alfred Gerum joins as Chief Product Officer, from his position as CPO at Benify. Additionally, Lin Li is appointed One Click LCA’s new Chief Financial Officer. Having previously worked at successful technology companies such as Klarna, Lin joins One Click LCA from his former position as CFO at the Swedish scaleup Teamtailor.

Colby, Suzana, Alfred, and Lin bring world-class leadership in enterprise growth, product-led sales, and scale-up finance. With their experience, we’re accelerating our expansion and ability to deliver outstanding solutions for our customers amongst increasing demands and a rapidly evolving regulatory landscape.

Panu Pasanen, CEO and Founder of One Click LCA

One Click LCA’s AI-powered platform enables analysis of whole-life carbon, LCA, and sustainability assessment for buildings, infrastructure, and manufacturing products — including early-stage analysis, design optioneering, benchmarking, and decarbonization tools. The platform enables manufacturers to generate and publish third-party-verified EPDs (environmental product declarations) reliably and efficiently using a fully digital process. One Click LCA also provides its users with the world's largest LCA database, giving them access to over 300,000 datasets from across the globe.

One Click LCA has experienced significant growth in recent years. The company raised a €40M equity investment from PSG Equity in late 2023. The following year, it also acquired two technology companies: ENVI-met, the global leader in microclimate simulation to reduce urban heat stress, and a French generative AI technology for optimizing projects in the pre-design stage, which is now integrated into One Click LCA's platform. One Click LCA partners with global enterprises in the construction and manufacturing sectors, such as AECOM, Schneider Electric, and Arcadis.
