The Hurun Research Institute, in cooperation with the Guangzhou City Bureau of Commerce and the High Technology Industry District, released the 2021 Global Unicorn Index, a ranking of global startups founded in the 2000s that are worth at least $1 billion and are not yet listed on the public exchange.

Despite the pandemic, Hurun Report chair and chief researcher Rupert Hoogewerf still called 2021 the “most successful year for startups ever “.

Consumer behavior has changed irreversibly as a result of the pandemic.
