Єдинорогами називають компанії, які досягли капіталізації в $1 мільярд і більше. Зараз Єдинороги виростають з ніш, які швидко зростають та розвиваються – IT-індустрії, де постійно з’являються нові об’ємні сегменти. Більшість Єдинорогів – трендсеттери у своїй сфері, орієнтуються на споживача, націленні на міжнародний ринок.
