(4 August 2020, Suzhou, China, Mumbai, India and Oxford, UK) The Hurun Research Institute, in association with Suzhou New District from East China, today released the Hurun Global Unicorn Index 2020, a ranking of the world’s start-ups founded in the 2000s, worth at least a billion dollars and not yet listed on a public exchange. This is the second year of the list and follows on from six quarterly Hurun China Unicorn Indices. This report includes the Hurun Best Unicorn Investors in the World 2020, a ranking of the 100 most successful unicorn investors. Valuations are a snapshot of 31 March 2020.

Hurun Research found 586 unicorns in the world, based in 29 countries and 145 cities. On average, they were set up nine years ago, with 80% selling software and services and 60% consumer-facing. 5% were in traditional sectors, with the majority disrupting financial services, retail, entertainment, business management solutions, healthcare, logistics and automobile. The total value of all known unicorns in the world is US$1.9tn, equivalent to the GDP of Italy.

89 unicorns saw their valuations rise, 23 saw their valuations drop. There were 142 ‘new faces’ and 50 drop-offs. Of the drop-offs, 30 were because they went public or were acquired and 20 saw their drop below US$1bn.

Hurun Report Chairman and Chief Researcher Rupert Hoogewerf said: “We have found 586 unicorns in the world. These young companies, only nine years old on average, are the world’s most exciting start- ups, leading a new generation of disruptive technology and attracting the world’s top young talent. Just look at Elon Musk’s SpaceX – valued at US$36bn and fifth on the Hurun Global Unicorn Index 2020 – which caught the imagination of the world by delivering two astronauts to the International Space Station on 31 May. Others that have made headlines recently include Beijing-based ByteDance, which is seeing its massively popular short video app TikTok come under threat from both the US and Indian governments, as well as China fintech Ant Financial, which is reportedly looking at a whopping US$200bn IPO in Shanghai and HK.”

“The USA and China continue to dominate with 80% of the world’s known unicorns, despite representing only 40% of the world’s GDP and a quarter of the world’s population. The rest of the world needs to wake up to providing an ecosystem that allows unicorns to flourish.”

“Hurun has set out to find every unicorn on the planet, ranking countries and cities by unicorn head office location. I hope this will help countries and cities to standardize the number of unicorns they have.”

“Of the 61 unicorns founded by Indians, a massive two thirds are based outside of India, predominately in the USA, whilst only 21 are based in India. The Indian founders of the 40 unicorns outside of India deserve to be recognised in much the same way as Sundar Pichai and Satya Nadella, an inspiration to many young Indian entrepreneurs.”

Where are the World’s Unicorns based?

2 / 33 The world’s unicorns are based in only 29 countries around the world, spread around 145 cities.

The USA pipped China to lead by 233 versus 227, together accounting for 79% of the world’s unicorns. “The dominance of the USA and China is such that they each have more than four times the number of unicorns in Europe, which today has 58 unicorns,” said Hoogewerf.

USA and China added 58 and 38 ‘new faces’ this year.

The UK was third with 24, led digital bank Revolut worth US$6bn. Europe’s largest unicorn was Switzerland-based biopharmaceutical company Roivant Sciences worth US$7bn. “The UK has more unicorns than Germany, France, Sweden, Spain, Italy, Russia and Holland combined”, said Hoogewerf.

India was fourth with 21 unicorns, led by payments solutions platform One97 Communications (US$16bn), travel-stay finder (US$8bn), online educator BYJU’s (US$8bn), and cab aggregator (US$6bn).

Despite a population of just under 9 million, Israel was 7th, ahead of France and Switzerland.

By city, Beijing is the world’s unicorn capital with 93, comfortably ahead of San Francisco with 68 and followed by Shanghai, New York, Shenzhen and Hangzhou. As a region, Silicon Valley leads the world with 122 or 21% of the world’s unicorns.

9 of the Top 10 cities for unicorn headquarters are in China and the USA, with London the only other city to make the Top 10. “China and the USA dominating the world’s unicorn cities is significant because these unicorns create an ecosystem of talent and investors,” said Hoogewerf.

Paris is the unicorn capital of mainland Europe with 6 unicorns, just ahead of Berlin with 5 unicorns.

USA. The USA led the world with unicorns, just ahead of China. In the USA, SaaS and AI unicorns led, followed by e-commerce and fintech. By valuation, fintech led but fintech unicorn valuations in the USA were only one quarter of those in China.

4 / 33 China. China follows the USA with 227 known unicorns and with a further 16 unicorns founded by first or second generation Chinese outside of China, predominantly in Silicon Valley. “Interestingly, two of the three largest unicorns co-founded by Chinese outside of China are US and UK versions of China’s on- demand food delivery platform ELEME, which went on to be acquired by Alibaba in 2018.”

By number of unicorns, China was driven by e-commerce, followed by AI. By value, fintech led the way.

Can’t find a unicorn here

Italy, Russia, Mexico and Holland are the largest countries in the world by GDP without a unicorn. “Only 29 countries have unicorns, meaning that the other 170 or more countries in the world are without a single unicorn, led by 10 of the world’s 25 largest economies,” said Hoogewerf.

What industries have been disrupted?

“Unicorns create value mostly by disrupting existing industries. Financial services and Retail are the two sectors most disrupted by unicorns, followed by Media & Entertainment, Business Management Solutions and Healthcare,” said Hoogewerf. “The car industry, for example, is being disrupted by unicorns in the fields of autonomous driving and e-cars.”

20 or 4% of the world’s unicorns were incubated by large companies before being spun off and attracting outside investors.

China-based e-commerce platform JD and Alibaba spun off three unicorns each followed by PingAn and Suning with two each. All but two were spun-off from a China-based company.

Hurun Research believes the Hurun Global Unicorn Index to be the most serious attempt to capture all of the world’s unicorns into one list.

Valuing unicorns can be tricky. The very nature of these super-fast growing companies makes valuations hard to pin down, but to ensure consistency of the valuations, the Hurun research team used the most recent valuation based on a sizeable round. Countries and cities are ranked according to the unicorn head office.

The Hurun research team used databases that specialize in recording rounds of investments by the professional investment world, cross-checking the data with some of the world’s top investment houses, industry experts, unicorn co-founders and media sources.

Unicorns can drop out from the list either by going public (IPO), being acquired by another company, or dropping in valuation below US$1bn.

Hurun Research has been tracking China’s top unicorns since 2017, starting with the Hurun China Unicorn Index and the world’s unicorns since 2019.
