The cumulative value of US-based Unicorns is $211B. While the list is anchored by “decacorns” like Uber ($40B valuation), Palantir ($15B), Snapchat ($15B), SpaceX ($12B), Pinterest ($11B), Dropbox ($10B), and AirBnB ($10B), this is the aggregate value of all 57 private US VC-backed companies that are worth $1B or more.
This collection of companies is now worth more than tech titans such as Amazon, Intel, Cisco, and many more. Of the Nasdaq 100, only Apple, Google, Microsoft, and Facebook have a higher market cap than the privately-held US Unicorns.
