Blackhorn in January announced that it had hired Melissa Cheong as managing partner, joining managing partners Trevor Zimmerman and Philip O’Connor. Cheong previously served as chief investment officer at Denver-based Zoma Capital.

At the time of Cheong’s hiring, Blackhorn said that it had made approximately $26 million in investments. The company’s website lists a portfolio of 24 companies in which it has invested.

Blackhorn in April 2018 added former Colorado governor Bill Ritter as a strategy partner, advising the firm on energy investments.

Zimmerman did not return calls for comment.
