No. First of all, SV doesn't depend only on investors. All the support for startups is here, from lawyers to graphic design to (probably most important) other founders.

Second, not taking VC doesn't mean not taking investment. If startups downshift, the next lower gear is angels.

What if angels are few and far between, and those that are there lack any experience about angel investing?
