Silicon Valley Bank’s collapse has, so far, served primarily to raise questions about banking regulations and macroeconomics. But at a moment when America’s lead in the global race for innovation is at risk of shrinking — China’s top-down system is gaining steam on our bottom-up approach — we can’t let SVB’s unique role supporting new companies go unfilled. There is real danger that we let the focus on SVB’s collapse obscure the critical role it played for start-ups and entrepreneurs. Those who have an interest in nurturing U.S. innovation — including, venture capitalists and regulators — must quickly figure out how to continue supporting our start-up community.
