WeWork, Uber, Bytedance, Robin Hood, SpaceX... What do they all have in common? They're all considered unicorns. What does that mean? Simply put it means they are startups valued at over 1 billion USD. But what makes them so special? Are we living in times when unicorns can still exist? Some of these companies have some pretty dirty histories you may or may not know about. Is there a difference between a unicorn's growth spurt in China vs the West? Let's go unicorn hunting!_x000D_

In this club, we'll take a deep look at some unicorns, their founders and their rises (and sometimes falls). We'll analyze their successes, failures, what lead to them and what we can learn from all of it. We'll talk about key industry players, IPOs, valuations, international investors and all the glamorous and not so glamorous things that go along for the ride._x000D_
