Westbourne River Partners was formerly the Polygon Global Partners, Polygon European Equity Opportunity business. Our name is inspired by one of London’s hidden rivers, the River Westbourne, which today runs underneath the city next to our office. Like the alpha in many of our investments, it is hidden in plain sight and visible only in glimpses to those who know where to look – such as the conduit running across Sloane Square tube station. The river originally brought fresh drinking water into the City of London and in 1730 was dammed to create the Serpentine in London’s Hyde Park.
