"Stockholm has produced more unicorns per capita than any other city in the world"
I don't know where this fact was sourced from and why it keeps on getting repeated but it's obviously not true. According to http://fortune.com/unicorns/ http://fortune.com/unicorns/, Sweden currently has 2 unicorns, Spotify and Klarna. Add in Skype, Minecraft and Candy Crush Saga as unicorns that have exited and you're up to 5.
In contrast, San Francisco alone has 34 with more in the greater Bay Area.
- sandstrom 11y agoThe per capita part is key. Sweden's population is 1/35 of the US. (I haven't checked the numbers, you may still be right, but I the claim doesn't sound unreasonable)
- shalmanese 11y agoThe metric is per city.
