A unicorn is technically any private company that is valued at over $1 billion. The term was coined to acknowledge the rarity of this achievement, and in today’s world, the vast majority of the private companies on the exclusive unicorn list are somehow connected to the broad tech industry.
Both of these companies are, of course, players in the broad tech sector. Snap is a growing social media brand, and Blue Apron is just as much of an e-commerce marketplace as it is a food company.
So what might their struggles tell investors about private valuations, unicorns, and newly-public companies? Make sure to tune into this week’s Tech Talk Tuesday to find out!
