Maybe Tech will in short term, but investors still will need to chaise yield in a zero interest rate environment.

As soon as things pass, money should start to flow back into startups.

Funding doesn’t matter much if your customer base either doesn’t exist anymore (eg b2b sass companies trying to build a foothold via other startups) or has drastically shrunk (b2c companies targeting consumers with reduced buying power).
