Evolution Of Startups Into Unicorns - 2025
As we all know, a startup is tagged as a unicorn when it reaches a valuation of USD 1 billion or more without listing on a stock exchange; thereby making it a rare and highly respected achievement. The term was first published in 2013, coined by venture capitalist Aileen Lee, choosing the mythical animal to represent the statistical rarity of such successful ventures. Normally, everything starts from a good or great idea.
