Startup Banking

Side note:

Percussion music plays.

Alton:

You can’t scale a big mountain if you're institution is small. But a big institution that acts very small to clients can scale large mountains.

Melissa:

We often get asked the question why J.P. Morgan is focused on the innovation economy today. And my answer to that is that this is not a new business for J.P. Morgan.

Alton:

We have 15,000 clients in the commercial bank. We have 4 million start-ups in the business bank.

Melissa:

What we offer to startups is a simplified payments platform to meet all of their basic banking needs. We've tried to make it very simple for them to make payments, get paid, and to help them stay safe from a cybersecurity perspective.

James:

The bankers have not just the ability to advise you on treasury services, or cash management, or traditional banking subjects, but are able to then relate that to a specific subindustry.

Alton:

We target this startup community with very specific products, services, and honestly discussions. If you think about that scale and pace, you’ve gotta start small but you have to get big really quickly.

Holly:

It's incredibly flattering to have such a world-renowned institution behind a young brand and a mission. And J.P. Morgan is the right partner to help us build this brand and take me on this journey.

Melissa:

It's literally impossible to outgrow J.P. Morgan. From, again, you're very basic banking needs to as you grow over time, we can really scale and grow with the company through every stage of their life cycle.

James:

Our bankers live and breathe this. Every time I meet a founder, I'm energized by their vision. They see patterns and connections other people don't see.

Alton:

Although they see the product around the corner, I'm actually helping their company itself look around the corner. So I feel like we're partners.

Speaker 1: The life science and healthcare industries are leaders in innovation. Technological development is accelerating at a massive pace in both sectors. It's a dynamic time, but also a time of uncertainty.

Lisa Gill: I think that the word disruptive is a word that's synonymous with healthcare today. At JPMorgan, we know the industries well. We know the trends. We know what institutional investors are going to be looking for.

Speaker 1: We know how to help founders raise funds, thrive, and succeed. It's at the core of what we do. We bring decades of experience in advising entrepreneurs and investors around the world, and while many entrepreneurs think they're not ready for JPMorgan, or that they're too small, we believe that while you might be small in size, it doesn't mean you're small in potential. Our commitment, combined with our ability to leverage JPMorgan's global network, allows us to find connections and opportunities for clients and those within our innovation economy ecosystem.

Sam Quinn: One of the reasons we started the life sciences practice is we saw a need in the sector, in the community, in the market for this type of advice.

Speaker 1: JPMorgan focuses on the things we excel at, so our clients can focus on their strengths too. They want a partner that understands what they do and what they think about, such as, "How do I manage my day-to-day operations, excess liquidity, and treasury payments? What can I do to expand my business internationally? And when should I start thinking about an exit plan, for myself and my business?" JPMorgan understands all of this. We're here to help both on the corporate and personal fronts. We'll work with you and your company across your entire lifecycle. That's one of the biggest strengths we offer to life science entrepreneurs and companies. We'll be there for you, from start to finish.
