Report reveals the nations with the highest valued ‘Unicorn’ businesses

Almost 50% of the global unicorn list is made up of American companies, but which are the most valuable?

Tipalti has looked at the latest stats and figures for unicorn companies in its new 2023 Unicorn report, following the success of its 2021 and 2022 reports, to reveal the most valuable Unicorn companies in the world.

The most valuable Unicorn companies

2	Ant Group	$150
3	SpaceX	$125
4	Shein	$100

10	Instacart	$39

ByteDance, the Chinese tech company responsible for the creation of popular social media app TikTok, has managed to keep its place at the top spot, whilst increasing its value to a huge $180 billion. This is compared to $140 billion in Tipalti’s last report.
Financial services corporation, Ant Group has the second place on the list. The company – which owns the world’s largest mobile payment platform, AliPay – is valued at $150 billion.
SpaceX is the third most valuable unicorn company in the US on the list. The company – which was founded by business tycoon Elon Musk and Tom Mueller – is, however, valued at $125 billion.

Further insights from the study revealed that:

14 of the top 30 most valuable unicorns are from the US, including the likes of SpaceX, Stripe, and Instacart.
308 companies joined the unicorn list last year, meaning that new entries account for 21.52% of all unicorn companies.
