About Alex Logan

Alex Logan is co-founder and chief executive of Cecil, which he launched in June 2021 with Rory Oxenham. Cecil began as software for managing and financing nature-based projects. By early 2022 it held more than 1,500 such projects covering over a million hectares in Australia, the United Kingdom and Germany, and it raised $2.2 million in pre-seed funding.

Cecil now runs a spatial data platform that gives enterprise and developer teams access to more than 40 commercial and open environmental datasets through a single API and Python SDK.

Before Cecil, Logan worked in product roles at Sydney startups including Ordermentum. On The Mix with Mick Liubinskas, he discussed Cecil's approach to restoring nature and climate action.
