🚀 India's Investment Momentum Is Unstoppable 🇮🇳 According to Axios, India has captured the highest share (37%) of overall exit value across global markets outside North America and Europe in the past 18 months—surpassing even China, which accounted for 29%. Here’s a snapshot of India’s incredible exit performance: - Public Market Exits: $12.9 billion in 2023, $8.1 billion in H1 2024 - Secondaries: $6.6 billion in 2023, $2.2 billion in H1 2024 - Strategic M&A: $5.8 billion in 2023, $1.1 billion in H1 2024 With its powerful combination of demographics and democracy, India is set to be a key player in the global economy for years to come. Sure, there will be bumps along the way, but going long on India this century is one of the easiest macro bets one can make. 📈 Full coverage by Kia Kokalitcheva : https://lnkd.in/gVbFFibc #IndiaRising #Investment #Economy #Growth #EmergingMarkets #Startups Bhawna B.

Time to reach unicorn status On average, it took just over 7 years for today’s unicorns to reach the billion-dollar mark from when they were founded. This is relatively stable across industries — ranging from 6.6 years for financial services to 7.7 years for healthcare — until you zoom in on generative AI startups. There are 34 generative AI unicorns, and they’ve collectively averaged just 3.9 years to hit unicorn status — 45% less than all other unicorns. In some cases, genAI startups are reaching that mark in under a year. For instance, Krutrim AI, a India-based LLM developer, was founded in April 2023. Just 8 months later, in January 2024, it grabbed a $1B valuation as part of its inaugural funding round. Report Credit: CB Insights #startup #unicorns #generativeAI #WeFounderCircle #Global
