Echelon Bank hosted a Shareholder Open House event last week.

Echelon Bank is a modern community bank being built for the businesses, families, and entrepreneurs of the Tampa Bay region. Headquartered in Clearwater, we are combining relationship banking with innovative technology to deliver a smarter, faster, and more personal financial experience. Our mission is simple: to elevate local banking. That means supporting small businesses with the capital and guidance they need to grow, giving families the tools to manage their financial lives with ease, and investing back into the communities we serve. Led by a team of experienced Florida bankers and community leaders, Echelon is focused on long-term growth, local impact, and a digital-first approach to community banking. Anticipated opening: 2026
