We support companies and technologies that enable both mitigation of and adaptation to climate change by rising consumers and producers.

LeapFrog’s Climate Strategy marks a natural extension of the firm’s 16-year journey as a pioneer of impact investing, backing companies that deliver essential services and products that enable lower-income consumers to build better lives.

LeapFrog believes that emerging consumers can swiftly transition beyond expensive and highly polluting energy, transport, and agricultural business models to new low-carbon and climate change resilient technologies – much as hundreds of millions of low-income customers have leapfrogged traditional telecommunications and banking models in recent years.

The Climate Strategy focuses on companies providing green products and services that are already cost competitive in many emerging markets, and enjoy enabling regulatory tailwinds. This large and expanding investable universe includes PAYG rooftop solar, distributed energy systems, 2-wheeler electric vehicles and smart farming practices.
