Everyone wants to create a unicorn and many start-ups are building their business model based on the ones of existing leaders, coming up with the “Uber of…” or the “Airbnb of…” the most random things.

With the fintech market becoming increasingly saturated, new concepts are hard to come by and it’s difficult to tell who will actually make it into the leaderboard. In fact, there is nothing stopping Uber from tapping into the financial industry and creating the “Uber of banking” itself.
Eitherway, if you are struggling to find free gaps in the digital market or if you want to check if your idea is free, this chart by Buzzfeed shows that there are still some unicorn inspired start-up ideas for grabs.
