## The Firm

Gemspring Capital, founded in 2015 by Bret Wiener and based in Westport, Connecticut, is a middle-market firm running roughly $5 billion. It advertises flexible capital and a taste for complexity: carve-outs, buyouts, recapitalizations, restructurings, and structured equity across eight sectors from aerospace to tech-enabled services. Its stated culture is analytical rigor, intellectual honesty, and lasting impact.

In this registry, Gemspring is the capital behind Fenceworks, the platform assembling local fencing installers into a network approaching twenty locations across the West Coast, Midwest, and Southeast, with Accurate Fence added in early 2026 and Texas entered in April.

A fencing searcher's read: Gemspring is a generalist an order of magnitude above the trade it entered, which means Fenceworks exists because the firm concluded fencing consolidates profitably at national scale. Meeting the organization, know the 2015 founding, the flexible-capital positioning, the eight-sector breadth, and that the fencing activity runs through the platform's own team.

Read again in September 2026: the fencing platform's fourth purchase took it into Texas in April 2026. The sponsor's site posted twenty-seven items since January across a dozen other platforms, chemicals to telecom advisory, and sold its security integrator to Morgan Stanley's fund.
