Marcena Capital

Marcena Capital

Marcena Capital was established in 2014 by Dhruv Sharma after his tenure as Asset Allocation Director at Strategic Assets Partners LLP. The firm operates as a regulated London-based investment office that stewards capital for families with origins in technology, healthcare, real estate and natural resources. It functions as a multi-family office rather than a single-family vehicle. The firm deploys across primary limited partnerships, direct co-investments and real-asset mandates. Asset classes include venture capital, private equity, infrastructure and real estate. It commits to two to three funds per year and has formed GP partnerships in healthcare, emerging-market private equity and U.S. growth strategies. Confirmed geographic reach covers Europe and North America. Clients have included Quantum Pacific, BlackPine and Oosterbaan Investment Group. The firm is a member of UK Private Capital and a founding member of the NOVA Capital Alliance. Marcena maintains a team of investment professionals and an advisory board that includes Sach Chandaria, Osamu Hosokubo, Michael Hecht and Jean-Philippe de Schrevel. Additional offices are not disclosed. The firm runs an Analyst Fellowship program that has placed participants at institutions including the University of Southern California and the London School of Economics. No operational events from the last 24 months appear in public records. Marcena’s structure separates day-to-day operations and capital formation under Lucy Morrisey while Dhruv Sharma retains responsibility for due diligence and board advisory. This division, combined with its FCA-regulated status and pooled-fund model, distinguishes it from typical single-family offices that do not aggregate external capital or maintain formal GP partnership programs.
