UNICORNS (INCREDIBLY VALUABLE STARTUPS)
Компания-стартап, получившая рыночную оценку стоимости в размере свыше 1 миллиарда долларов США.

Incredibly valuable startup, VC-backed company with a reported valuation above $1 billion. Young, innovative, and highly-valued companies backed by venture capitalists.

Everybody is looking for unicorns, but nobody knows what they look like (until the horn grows in). It may be possible to identify companies that will do well, but it’s impossible to predict those, and only those, that will be unicorns, in part because the formula for success is constantly changing.
A few unicorns produce the majority of the returns in the venture capital business.
