“Basically my point of view on unicorns is that private companies which have sky high valuations, it doesn't really mean anything in the real world until it's marked to market. And there's only two ways things get marked to market in venture capital: Either a company is acquired by another company for cash or marketable security, or it goes public, and then it has reporting requirements and then the market will determine the value.” WorldWayMeanTwoRealValuesViewsCompanySkySecurityDeterminePoint Of ViewReal WorldCashVentureRequirementsReally MeanTwo WaysUnicornValuationVenture CapitalSky High Author:Kevin Kinsella
“The stock market has gone up and if you are stock picking, that's fine, you may do a bit better than the market. But if you want to play in another game where you can get rapid increases of value and so on and so forth, this apparently has become the new parlour game, to invest in these companies and many their cases, the private equity that has been piling in onto of the venture capital is creating the unicorn, in other words the company with the $1 billion valuation.” IfsWantMayHas BeensPlayValuesGamesBitsCompanyCasesGoneFineCreatingIncreaseBillionsVentureEquityRapidsUnicornValuationVenture CapitalPrivate Equity Author:Kevin Kinsella
