Denham Capital, a global private equity firm with focus on the energy sector, said on Tuesday that it has invested $100 million in seed capital to Endeavor Energy. With this new venture, Denham Capital announced that it has named Sean Long as Endeavor Energy's new Chief Executive Officer. The partnership will produce a new firm that will invest on specific target businesses in the fields of thermal and hydroelectricity in Africa.
