LeapFrog Investments: PE for People with Hearts

LeapFrog Investments is a private equity investment firm that focuses on "purpose-driven businesses" in emerging markets (typically Africa and Asia). It seems like a well-regarded shop in the arena of "impact investment," yet there seems to be very little information about it..

I was wondering if anyone had any info regarding job requirements, recruiting, specifics on type of work, culture, etc.

Also, apart from TechnoServe and AgDevCo, are there any comparable firms?
