Interestingly, it has taken
an average of 7.8 years to make a unicorn in 2021, lower than 9.9 years which
was the case in 2020. “The trend that is noticeable here is that time has been
reducing, as founders with prior founding or startup experience are coming into
play,” analysts said in the report.
Explaining the heightened investor interest in
the fintech space, Shishir Mankad, managing partner and head of financial services
at Praxis Global Alliance, says that the financial services sector is relevant
for every industry given the variety of use cases that the segment generates.
“Financial transactions provide very valuable data to get insights about
customers,” says Mankad.
