The Financial Times first released the "Unicorn List" on January 22, 2015 to respond to the burgeoning growth of billions of dollars by private companies. Initially, the company announced a cover story called "The Unicorn Age". The hooded unicorn on the right is a cover picture, we like 500 miles here. The list of assets was last updated on August 25, 2015, as a new company is added for each new version of the list (and the company that removed the IPO). Companies such as Spotify, Dropbox, Nutanix, Stripe, Palantir, Docker, Zenefits and many other high growth companies are making this powerful list. The scarcity of the unicorns may be diminished, but the obstacles to becoming one have not decreased. Unicorns is inherently a high growth enterprise and people who are looking for it have a job.

Today, however, the list of famous unicorn which I want includes more than 80 companies. As we are now in the age of unicorns, I will consider entrepreneurs' customs that founded Unicorn's startup 25, to make future members motivate, motivate and imitate their success We made it possible. Facebook's founder revealed that he does not work all day in Facebook's question and answers. In fact, he is 9 to 5 more and he is between 50 and 60. Zuckerberg said, "But, if you were paying attention to our duties, it is basically my life," he continued.

In this survey, we will focus on companies in CB Insights Unicorn List. CB Insights defines unicorns as privately held companies with more than $ 1 billion. In 2013 Techcrunch's article, Aileen Lee of Cowboy Ventures first used "unicorns" as a definition of a very popular multi-billion dollar startup in the past two years. More than 50% of companies in the CB Insights Unicorn List (73 out of 144 companies) joined the list, so 2015 was a year of unicorns. When comparing the latest evaluation of 2015 with the media attention, there is a clear correlation between these two factors. This means that technology media gathers more attention to the company. But the scatterplot also shows that many companies will receive revenue (eg, credit card, Buzzfeed) or less (eg, Palantir, Lufax) that is more concerned than their rating. In order to better understand which startups are attracting attention, calculate media attention and evaluation indicators.
