Ecogain joins forces to form international group Myllium
- Specialists addressing global nature challenges have come together to form Myllium
- Over 400 experts from seven firms are collaborating to innovate and lead complex projects supporting people and the planet
- Ecogain is one of the founding members of the expanding group
Ecogain, a leading consultancy in nature, biodiversity and business strategies, has become a founding member of Myllium, a newly formed international group of specialist firms within nature, climate and sustainable development.
“We’re proud to join Myllium. It allows Ecogain to remain rooted in our specialist expertise while gaining the strength of international reach. For our clients, this translates into broader expertise, greater resources and increased capacity to address complex environmental challenges.” says Anders Borgehed, CEO of Ecogain.
Meeting the global demand for nature expertise
Nature degradation represents an existential threat, creating an urgent need for effective solutions to mitigate and reverse the impact. Addressing it requires collaboration and shared expertise to scale effective solutions for protecting and restoring nature.
The formation of Myllium also meets an accelerating global demand for advanced nature expertise. This shift is driven by evolving regulation, rising investor expectations, and a growing recognition that biodiversity risk represents a material and direct impact on businesses worldwide.
“We share one planet and common challenges. Creating real change requires collaboration across borders. When we work together, we can accelerate innovation, share knowledge at scale and become a stronger partner to our clients worldwide,” says Katarina Walter, Group CEO of Myllium.
Local expertise. International reach.
Myllium brings together over 400 specialists to share innovation and experience in methodology, data, and technology. By combining niche expertise - ranging from ecology and landscape planning to environmental law and strategic advisory - the group provides the scale and international reach required to lead complex projects for sustainable land and water management.
As a founding member, Ecogain continues to operate under its own brand and leadership, while gaining access to:
- An international network of leading experts
- Shared innovation in methodology, data and technology
- The capacity to collaborate on larger, cross-border projects
For clients, this means broader capabilities and deeper specialist expertise, combined with the same trusted local presence and relationships.
A collective built on shared values
Myllium derives from the Nordic word meaning fertile ground, echoing the root-like structure of mycelium – the network that connect many parts into a stronger whole. The founding members are Tyler Grange and The Ecology Co-op in the UK, Altenburg & Wymenga in the Netherlands, and the Sweden-based firms Ecogain, Calluna, EnviroPlanning and Örnborg Kyrkander.
Underlining their long-term commitment to this vision, all current owners of Ecogain, and the other founding firms, have re-invested to become shareholders in Myllium. This ensures a stable foundation for the group’s mission to support sustainable growth for people and the planet.
Leadership perspectives
Katarina Walter, Group CEO of Myllium:
“By coming together as a culturally aligned collective with a shared purpose, we’ve become even better and stronger. Importantly, while benefiting from our collective strength, we’re also preserving each independent company’s identity and entrepreneurial spirit. By pooling our knowledge across disciplines and geographies, we are perfectly positioned to support even the largest international clients in an increasingly complex environment.”
Anders Borgehed, CEO of Ecogain:
”Ecogain has long been at the forefront of biodiversity advisory in the Nordic market. Through Myllium, we combine our specialist depth with international scale. That strengthens our ability to support clients navigating rising biodiversity risk and regulatory complexity – across borders.”
