FOREST HILLS, Md.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Ecotone Inc.<\/a>, a leading provider of ecological restoration services and portfolio company of L2 Capital, is pleased to announce the hiring of Conor Gillespie as CEO and the acquisition of Wilkinson Ecological Design (“WED”). WED is a provider of shoreline restoration and invasive species management solutions in New England and the surrounding areas. The hiring of Conor and integration of these two organizations will create one of the premier, vertically integrated ecological restoration services providers in the United States.\n<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

\nConor Gillespie is a former manager at Resource Environmental Solutions and founder of Catalyst Companies who brings a wealth of environmental restoration solutions experience to Ecotone. Lorin Cassidy Wolfe, Partner of L2 Capital and Chairman of the Board of Managers of Ecotone added, \u201cWe are thrilled to have Conor join Ecotone and bring his unique background and experience to lead the company\u2019s growth. Conor has demonstrated the ability to deliver and execute complex ecological restoration projects while driving strategic expansion and overall growth. We are confident that Ecotone will continue to build its position as one of the leading, vertically integrated ecological services providers in the industry under his leadership.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\nRegarding the acquisition of Wilkinson, Conor added \u201cI have respected Wilkinson for many years. In particular, they have built a unique suite of services that I am eager to continue to expand and develop into the next generation of shoreline restoration solutions. I couldn\u2019t be happier to bring these two teams together in our quest to provide the highest quality restoration solutions to our clients. WED mirrors our values and reputation for quality restoration work. We are building an incredible base of solutions, techniques, and talent that can meet a diverse array of public and private client needs.”\n<\/p>\n
