bunch

Private markets runs on relationships. The problem isn't who's in the room - it's that the right conditions to actually connect rarely exist. That's what we're creating space for at SuperReturn this year. A CFO dinner, a morning run, a brunch. Three moments on the sidelines of the conference where real conversations can happen. Last few spots remaining - link below to register your interest. #BuildOnbunch

bunch has raised $35 million in Series B funding, led by Portage (part of Sagard) with participation from Illuminate Financial. Private markets are heading toward $32 trillion by 2030. The infrastructure behind them hasn't kept up. Legacy systems weren't built for the automation, data precision, or regulatory demands that modern fund operations require. Four years ago, we started building the backbone that was missing - from scratch, from within the complexity. One integrated platform across the full fund lifecycle: specialist expertise, proprietary software, and AI-native infrastructure, combined. As Hélène FALCHIER, Partner at Portage, put it: "𝘌𝘯𝘳𝘪𝘤𝘰 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘓𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘥𝘪𝘥𝘯'𝘵 𝘣𝘶𝘪𝘭𝘥 𝘢𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘱𝘭𝘦𝘹𝘪𝘵𝘺, 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘣𝘶𝘪𝘭𝘵 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯 𝘪𝘵." Private markets will always be people-driven. The right combination of human expertise, software, and AI is what makes them scalable. That's what bunch is built on. The momentum speaks for itself: ⚫ 300% ARR growth in 2025 ⚫ 156% Net Revenue Retention ⚫ 500+ Investment Structures ⚫ $58M+ raised in total None of this happens without the trust of our 150+ Asset Managers, 12,000+ Limited Partners and the incredible work of the bunch team.

Last month, the European Investment Fund (EIF) announced a €15bn fund of funds to back 100 growth-stage VCs across Europe - the largest of its kind. 🇪🇺 This is the kind of structural move that gives that thesis real weight - Europe making a deliberate, large-scale bet to close the €70bn late-stage funding gap with the US. As EIF declares: 𝗘𝘂𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗲 𝗱𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗲𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗶𝘁𝘀 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗻𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗮𝘁 𝗵𝗼𝗺𝗲. With the goal of unlocking up to €80bn in scaleup capital across the continent. The ambition here is significant and this is what our co-founder Enrico has long spoken about European dynamism. As capital at this scale flows into European VC, the entire ecosystem has to be built to match it and bunch is here for it.

Most emerging managers do not struggle with strategy. They struggle with infrastructure. We sat down with Rebekah Kasumu, founder of Plug Capital, to explore what it actually takes to launch and run a fund when your team is lean and the operational complexity is not. bunch has partnered with Plug Capital Ltd to deliver everything a first-time fund manager needs under one roof – fund administration, CFO services, and regulatory hosting. Together, we are part of the British Business Bank’s Pathways Capital initiative, supporting first-time solo GPs in launching UK microfunds from day one. Get in touch with Manuel E. to discover how we can support this journey and beyond. Link to the full interview in the comments below. #Buildonbunch

Today, we're spotlighting Andrena Ventures - a London-based pre-seed fund at the forefront of European tech. Founded by Gideon Valkin, former Commercial Director at Monzo Bank, Andrena brings together the network of an institutional fund with the hands-on support of an angel. Investing across AI, fintech, and B2B software, its portfolio speaks for itself - with companies like iterate, Fundamental , and GoodFit.io among its ranks. As Andrena deploys capital across the UK and Europe, bunch handles the fund administration - giving the team the infrastructure to stay focused on its founders. We're honoured to be working alongside the Andrena team as they build one of Europe's most exciting early-stage funds. #Buildonbunch

We are proud to have been selected as one of three official panel providers on the British Business Bank's Investor Pathways Capital Microfunds programme - supporting emerging managers entering the venture fund space. Investor Pathways is designed to widen access to venture fund management, lowering the barriers that have historically kept first-time managers on the sidelines. With £400m earmarked to be deployed into emerging managers, it is one of the most significant anchoring opportunities available to first-time fund managers in the UK today - and exactly the kind of initiative we want to be part of. If you are thinking of raising a fund, Investor Pathways could be the anchor you need. Learn more below, link in the comments. For managers already on the programme: we're here to give you the infrastructure that was previously only available to established funds. The back office, the reporting, the operations - all taken care of from day one and built to scale with you. Book time with Manuel E., link in the comments. Build on bunch. #Buildonbunch

Three funds. Three different challenges. One common thread. Gaius Capital (Jan Mickel) needed a system of record that could handle everything from fund closing to integrated reporting. Tiny Supercomputer Investment Company (Sandra Lyness) wanted to spend less time on admin and more time where it counts. w3.group (André Kanya) was looking for the upgrade European fund management had been waiting for. This is what modern fund operations looks like. Swipe to hear from the funds building on bunch. #BuildOnbunch
