CNBC’s tenth annual Disruptor50 list highlights 50 private companies that have grown through the downs and ups of the pandemic, and are now poised for greater economic and consumer difficulties.

They have collectively raised half a trillion dollars in venture capital. At least 41 are unicorns, with valuations of $1 billion or more – 14 are valued at over $10 billion. However, becoming a unicorn is all too common. Market volatility has made it difficult to value companies in the public and private market. Other stats are more interesting: 

40 percent of these companies are committed to a core social or environmental goal. Ten Disruptors of 2014 are in the logistics sector. They tackle the dysfunctional global supply chain which has led to four-decades high inflation. Eight focus on reducing healthcare costs, and reaching out to underserved people. Many more will be devoted to climate change. Nine Disruptors this year have a female founder. Sixteen of the Disruptors feature chief executives from ethnic and racial minorities.  

These 50 businesses were selected by the proprietary Disruptor 50 methodologyPitchBook estimates that they have raised $56 billion worth of venture capital at an implied Disruptor 50 price tag of $552 billion.
