In Asia today, there are over 60 “unicorns” — privately held companies valued at $1B+. Of those, a whopping 41% are backed by four of China’s largest internet giants — Baidu, Alibaba, Tencent, & JD.com (hereafter referred to as BATJ) — or their affiliates such as Ant Financial, according to CB Insights data.

Within China, the figure is even higher. Forty-six percent of China’s unicorns are today backed by BATJ. Of the four, Tencent has backed the highest number of China-based unicorns at 15. China unicorns backed by more than one of the four include food delivery platform Ele.me, ride-hailing giant Didi Chuxing, online insurance carrier Zhong An Insurance, photo sharing app Kuaishou, real estate brokerage Beijing Homelink and electric vehicle maker NIO.
