Bramalea Partners

Andy Boyd and Matt Blind founded Bramalea Partners to take advantage of a capital supply demand imbalance in the “middle rounds” between venture and growth to find great opportunities to invest in tech-enabled businesses. We ran all of the private investments in venture and growth at Fidelity for about 15 years and started Bramalea Partners in 2020. We are looking for large, growing, well-established industries that are ripe for disruption via technology. In all cases, product market fit will have already been established and we are providing expansion capital to help scale and grow a business that has a very large total addressable market that is easy to understand.
