New Book Launch – Billion Dollar Unicorns

Posted on Tuesday, Jan 13th 2015

While the vast majority of entrepreneurs today are trying to figure out how to build billion dollar Unicorn companies, Venture Capitalists have always been looking for Unicorns to fund.

And yet, the probability of founding or funding a Unicorn is, by definition, minuscule. Over 10,000 companies are born every year that go out to seek financing in the venture capital eco-system. Historically, we have only seen five or six Unicorns a year. The Internet’s reach has expanded dramatically, so this number may increase in the upcoming years. Companies are scaling faster these days, once they find the secret sauce that triggers adoption.

In Billion Dollar Unicorns, Sramana Mitra, founder of the One Million by One Million (1M/1M) global virtual accelerator, invites 17 entrepreneurs who have built ultra-scalable companies for in-depth discussions on how they navigated their ways through the startup process. Sramana’s goal: to identify the lessons learned that can be broadly applicable for millions of entrepreneurs. She has been tracking Unicorn companies for months, inspired by an article by Aileen Lee of Cowboy Ventures.

Perhaps, this book will help more entrepreneurs learn to build billion dollar Unicorns. For sure, it will help many more entrepreneurs learn to build successful businesses. You can order your copy from Amazon Kindle here today.
