Anyone have info on General Atlantic?

General Atlantic is the OG growth equity shop (a pioneer of the strategy (the "BX/KKR of growth equity" to put it crudely).

• They raise funds but use a mix of managed accounts and permanent/evergreen vehicles so it is a little harder to assess their scale. Seem to have ~$10bn of capital to deploy as of early 2018 and their deal sizes speak for themselves: $870mm in Jio along with Facebook, SL, Vista, KKR etc. recently suggests they are a mega player in tech growth equity at least.
• Very pure growth equity - do not do buyouts, mostly take minority stakes and use debt infrequently (unlike Insight, TA etc, which dip into buyouts and minority growth rounds). Do $10mm rounds (Duolingo) but also do $870mm rounds^
• Very international - rare US investment firm very active in China and India, and reasonably successful at it.
• Returns in the high-teens (but consistent over a long period; good for growth equity).
• Likely have their toes in most modern high-growth companies (altho didn't necessarily invest in all of them in early rounds): Uber, Airbnb, ByteDance, Ant, Opendoor, Crowdstrike and some "cool" ones you may have seen but are unproven: Clear (airports), DuoLingo, Wish.com
