Imagine my surprise when I see that the President of France talking about increasing the number of unicorns in France. Is it April First?
Nope, your French dictionary may be dated, but Antidote (https://www.antidote.info/en) came to the rescue:économie –Jeune entreprise du domaine des nouvelles technologies qui, sans être cotée en Bourse, est estimée à plus de un milliard de dollars
That's "Young company in the field of new technologies which, without being listed on the stock exchange, is estimated to be worth more than one billion dollars" in English. Not to mention this is a really good term since some of these companies really have zero assets.
Their real assets are YOUR INFORMATION which they sell.
Maybe some of these companies actually have a product, but they sell airware for the most part.
Here's your unicorn.
