Billion-Dollar Ideas: Of 30 Israeli-Founded Unicorns, 13 Joined The Club In 2019

"While Israelis make up 0.11 percent of the global population, with just approximately 9 million people, Israeli founders are behind a staggering 5.62 percent of existing unicorns today (private companies valued at $1 billion or more).

As of December 2019, out of over 500 unicorns currently out there, according to a list compiled by Techcrunch – a number almost counter-intuitive to the term meant to illustrate a statistical rarity – 30 were founded by Israelis, at least 13 of which became unicorns over the past year."
