So here's the thing. Unicorn founders, founders of companies that have reached a $1 billion plus valuation didn't come from business school didn't come from Mckenzie. Instead, as you see on this literally of this study that Endeavor came out where they have tracked all types of founders of unicorn companies, what they came to light or what they resurfaced was the fact that founders for the most part what they did is they actually worked for a very successful startup before. On average, they had 10 years of working experience before they actually went at it and started their own business. And here's the other thing, they almost for the most part lived and worked abroad.
