> A typical valley based startup will “graduate” into the billion dollar club within 4-5 years

This is survivor bias. The truly magnificent ones hit the billion dollar club within 4-5 years. But there are plenty of highly successful that not only survive but thrive and are profitable and fail to meet your objective

> Is it end of the road? Hell, NO! We WILL create billion dollar companies. More importantly, we will create stories – far more impactful than our global counterparts. Why? Because our heart is where it should be – in the right place.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but being successful requires more than wishful thinking. Much more.
