There are many startups that have reached unicorn (1B) valuation by this point. Very very few of those have less than 20 employees.


Is that a necessary condition though or due to the environment? A security company I worked for got acquired and in a relatively short time they went from 100 to 300 to 600 quickly in preparation for the acquisition. I am not sure those people were required for the valuation or if they were part of the standard game plan of a sale.
