What the fund looks for in founders and which sectors it backs.
Bramble Partners is raising its debut fund, targeting $132.5 million, doubled from its original $66.2 million target at the firm's 2024 launch.
In September 2026, Tesco committed $26.5 million as the fund's anchor investor, with former Schroders CEO Peter Harrison also reported as a backer. The fund still needs additional institutional or family-office LPs to reach its full target.
