African startups on the SVB collapse

Focus on Africa

Available for over a year

African startups are waiting to see what happens next after the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank over the weekend. The bank - which specialised in lending to technology companies - was shut down by regulators who seized its assets. Bola Mosuro speaks to Benjamin Fernandes, whose company banked with SVB, to hear about the impact this may have on African startups. (Credit: Cem Tekkesinoglu/Anadolu Agency via Getty Images).
