Unicornhood – Digital Growth Case Study in Hyderabad

Unicornhood
India's startup ecosystem operates on a broken promise—despite ₹42B in funding and 100+ unicorns, 92% of funded startups still fail to scale beyond Series A, and 77% collapse due to poor execution despite having capital. The incubation industry has become a volume game where "spray and pray" methods treat unicorn creation like a lottery rather than an engineering discipline. Traditional accelerators focus on survival metrics while systematic success remains elusive. Unicornhood entered a space where the fundamental question wasn't being asked: if funding, talent, and timing don't guarantee success, what does? They discovered the hidden truth—the factors that contribute most to failure are precisely where startups receive the least support.
