- It's not every day you hear about a unicorn prancing about in your neck of the woods.
- There are now 326 Unicorns in the world, according to CB insights, or I guess 327 now, given Airwallex's announcement.
- The US dominates as the home country for Unicorns, followed by China, the UK and India, and then a very long tail.
