Las fases:
  • 🔹 Seed Phase (0 – 1M €)
    This is the starting point: the germinal idea.

    It may arise from a personal intuition, a problem observed in the environment, or a proposal from an institution/hub.

    A first feasibility analysis is carried out: potential impact, alignment with the Lone Unicorn model, and capacity for AI-driven automation.

    The project is registered on the platform and enters the ecosystem with mentors, training, and access to initial resources.

    👉 Goal: turn an idea into a viable project to move towards Pegasus.
    👉 Estimated value: up to €1 million.

    🔹 Pegasus Phase (1 – 10M €)
    The activation phase. The idea becomes an MVP (Minimum Viable Product), supported by generative AI and the first autonomous agents.

    Market validation with the first users.

    Automation of basic tasks: reports, customer service, initial sales.

    Focus on speed and low human cost.

    👉 Goal: demonstrate real impact and attract initial investment.
    👉 Estimated value: up to €10 million.

    🔹 Dragon Phase (10 – 100M €)
    The consolidation and expansion phase.

    Development of proprietary algorithms that differentiate the company from competitors.

    Attraction of institutional investment and preparation for internationalization.

    👉 Goal: move from a product to an innovative, scalable company.
    👉 Estimated value: between €10 and €100 million.

    🔹 Unicorn Phase (+1000M €)
    The super-automation phase. The company becomes a digital autonomous organism.

    90% of processes are managed by AI and autonomous agents.

    The company scales globally without the need for large human teams.

    It is able to reinvent itself in real time and adapt to any market.

    👉 Goal: become a Lone Unicorn.
    👉 Estimated value: +€1 billion.

Colaboración Efectiva

The Lone Unicorn is not an individual path, but a collaborative ecosystem that multiplies the chances of success:

  • Specialized mentors: experts in AI, automation, neuroscience, investment, and soft skills who guide each phase of the process.

  • Co-creation with companies and startups: synergies are generated between innovators, SMEs, and corporations to validate and scale projects.

  • Investors and funds: access to private financing, partner banks, and European funds (through allies such as Finnova).

  • Institutions and global hubs: connections with Impact Hub Málaga, universities, and technology centers across Europe.

  • Shared value model: all actors (mentors, partners, investors) take part in the benefits and impact of the project.

👉 This collaboration is the key that ensures any idea, no matter how disruptive, can become a scalable reality with global impact.
