startup Logos and Brands
Young companies with innovative business models and ambitions to scale up are featured in the “Startup” section. Stripe, valued at $95 billion; SpaceX, with a market capitalization of over $150 billion; Canva; Figma (acquired by Adobe, deal canceled); and Notion have gone from garage ideas to global products. Venture capital funds Sequoia Capital, Andreessen Horowitz, and Y Combinator finance startups in their early stages, and an IPO or acquisition by a large corporation completes the life cycle of a successful project. Startup logos in this section are minimalist and tend toward abstraction, while brand logos represent companies whose growth is measured in multiples rather than percentages.
