But despite SVB Private's elite clientele, the holiday gift guide isn't intended to make headlines for boasting extravagant items like the Neiman Marcus luxury wish list. Instead, the list highlights SVB clients, which is organized by vendor rather than category and includes quotes from each founder. SVB Private's gift guide includes Flanagan Wines, owned by client Eric Flanagan, pictured with his wife, Kit. During the pandemic, Gregory's 400-plus winery clients were struggling with restaurants closed and wine tastings off-limits. Flanagan has sold wine through SVB's monthly specials and appreciated getting brand awareness with SVB's rich tech clients.
