List of Strategic / Operational Focused Activist Funds?

There is a thread here that goes over the difference between Baupost / Third Point / Trian. One of the users stated that Trian was more focused on operational / strategic improvements. 

Was curious if anyone had a list of activist funds that had a similar focus. In particular, interested in any with more TMT exposure as well as smidcap investments. 

Also interested in ways to track fund spinoffs. I tried searching for former Trian PMs that have launched their own funds, but had some trouble Googling.
