“......日經新聞 14 日報導,新冠肺炎疫情加快全球獨角獸企業(unicorn,指企業價值超過 10 億美元的新創公司)大風吹,在分析美國研究機構 CB Insights 的資料(截至 2020 年 12 月 24 日)得知,2020 年新誕生的 106 家獨角獸企業中,軟體和金融科技(fintech)業者各占 16% 最多,EC 業者為 14%、健康照護和網路安全業者各占 8%,AI 業者僅 3%。軟體、EC 業者占整體獨角獸企業比重合計達 30%,較 2019 年大增近 10 個百分點,反觀 AI 業者比重從 2019 年的 13% 急速萎縮至 3%。
2019 年時,金融科技業者占 21% 最多,其次依序為 AI 13%、EC 11%、軟體 10%、物流業者 7%。過去一年來 AI 和物流業者占獨角獸企業的比重急速下滑,成長產業陣容發生更替,而會發生如此變化,主要是因為新冠肺炎疫情擴散。AI 業者占比雖急速萎縮,不過美國 WiL 共同創辦人伊佐元山指出,「此不代表市場的 AI 投資減少,而是成長產業正將 AI 融入自家技術。」......”
unicorn fintech 在 AppWorks Facebook 的最佳解答
Southeast Asia hit a new milestone recently as Facebook announced its investment in Indonesian ride-hailing unicorn Gojek. Although many other American tech companies like Google, Microsoft, and Expedia have long been active in SEA, this investment marks the social media giant's very first foray into the region.
In terms of ride sharing, it's a two-horse race with Gojek still maintaining an edge on its home turf in Indonesia, while Grab continues to dominate in markets outside of Indonesia.
Fintech has always been a key component of ride sharing startups in attempt to develop deeper customer loyalty (for riders and drives), increase stickiness, and improve profitability with higher margin products like financing, insurance, or payments. And the recent move by Facebook (and Paypal) may just help Gojek tip the scales in its favor.
Its digital payments arm Gopay is now the most widely used e-wallet in Indonesia and was instrumental in helping Gojek build up early traction in the second largest cash-based country in the world.
Widespread penetration of Facebook's social media platform, along with messaging services like WhatsApp and messenger, may help Gopay further expand its reach, and together with Paypal's online payment portals, offer a truly seamless, value-added experience for its users.
Of course, taking American money is not without potential risks down the line. As evidenced by its recent $5.7B investment in India-based Reliance Jio, Facebook will stop at nothing for global domination and may very well strike up similar partnerships with competitors in the space.
All-in-all, the SEA ecosystem has evolved tremendously in the last few years, and its refreshing to see homegrown startups eliciting the attention and interest of international stakeholders, surely signaling a new stage of maturity that will hopefully bring more resources, talent, and opportunities to the region.
