Slack and Affirm among the biggest valuation jumps in April | Vator

While it’s now harder for companies to raise money, and the number of unicorns has fallen dramatically, that doesn’t mean that the bubble has deflated completely. There are still going to be companies that are going to raise large rounds, with big valuations.

Pitchbook took a look at the companies that saw the biggest valuation jumps, by both multiple and by dollars, in April. Things may be tightening, but they are by no means slowing down completely.

The company that saw the biggest jump by multiple was Vemo Education, a provider of  student-financing solutions for colleges and universities, which raised a $2.5 million round. It’s valuation went up 7.13x, from $1.4 million to $10 million.
