@cantur This question normally comes from folks who don't understand valuations. Here are some publicly listed tech companies that made less than $1B in 2022:
Cloudflare (devtools)
Box (B2B SaaS)
Lending Tree (fintech)
NETGEAR (hardware)
Squarespace (B2C SaaS)
Cloudflare is worth $22B; a 22x multiple. If your startup could command a 22x multiple, at $100M ARR it'd be worth $2.2B, well past the "unicorn" marker.
@james_conor Maybe it's the right time to ask,what did you answer to the question "What's the most impressive achievement you have?" Or something along the lines of it.
@scriptureunited TBH I don't recall (I'm not even sure if that was on the application when I went through). It was like 4 years ago now so tough to remember specifics like that...
@james_conor Everyone has a 'but you have X' and yours is being the ex-CTO of a publicly listed company. Yeah i can see why they funded you. Still, wildly helpful. Are you open to people DMing you about questions? much appreciated?
