Steve Wozniak has always found himself in a somewhat strange place on the public scene. He is one of the co-founders of Apple, and the community often echoes his movements. For this reason, and even if he is outside the company, always tends to get some media coverage when he comes out on stage.

Typically, it makes a number of headlines regarding the future of technology. As well he usually talks quite freely about the current Apple. For example, not so long ago, he urged the company to recognize the right to repair, which the people of Cupertino are not fully implementing.

Today he came to star in some news as a judge in a contest called “Licorn Hunters”. It’s a program aired on YouTube and Facebook that stars singer Lance Bass, and stars Craig Plestis, executive producer of “Mask Singer”, in which they are looking for the next “unicorn” start-up, who are those companies that exceed a billion dollar valuation.

From Variety, they indicate that the program would aspire to higher levels than the Internet. Concretely, the program would aspire to be broadcast on television, for which it requires the support of a network. Something that, at the moment, does not seem to have happened.

One of the peculiarities of “Licorn Hunters” is that it allows the participation of the public. In addition to the “silver circle” itself, which includes the show’s judges and investors, viewers may indicate your interest in investing in the companies presented. Of course, with the risk that this entails.


For the time being, five programs were broadcast on the Internet, and it looks like they’ll continue to produce the show, even if it doesn’t make it to TV. All can be viewed on the official website, where more information about the format is also included.
