50 Business Models of the New Economy. Lessons from Unicorn Companies tells the vibrant stories of 50 companies that emerged in the last 20-30 years, whose business models allowed them to achieve billion-dollar (and sometimes multi-billion-dollar) valuations. They’re different from old-school companies because they were all about new tech and connecting with customers right from the start.

It’s important to note that these companies are from various market sectors with diverse business models, so you’re bound to find something useful for your own business.

By analyzing their growth and operations, the authors have formulated ‘unicorn lessons’-principles that can help others make their companies equally successful. Even from this small selection at the end of the book, one can trace socioeconomic trends entrepreneurs can rely on when developing their business models.

Here are some reviews from the first readers:
Ilya Strebulaev, David S. Lobel Professor of Private Equity and Professor of Finance Graduate School of Business Stanford University:
"At the Graduate School of Business Stanford University, where I teach, we successfully practice the case method: we analyze real-life situations from various companies. This way, students can learn from other’s mistakes and successes-and then apply what they’ve learned to their own businesses.
In this book, business models of 50 interesting companies with huge capitalization are collected-any one of them could be the missing idea or practice that will push you or your project forward. Even for myself, I found several new ideas and unknown facts.
There is no single recipe for startup success! It’s always a combination of founders’ work, investors, and the team-plus a bit of luck. However, the authors have tried to identify some standard components, and their conclusions are worth paying attention to.
I recommend reading this book to entrepreneurs, investors, and business school students. It’s a good investment in your future success".
Leonid Boguslavsky, entrepreneur, investor, founder of RTP Global:
"Successful business models are described briefly and interestingly. Their stories and operational features provide a retrospective of entrepreneurial ideas of the last 10-15 years.I’ll recommend the book to my friends."
