Burling Bank Partners with 1871 to Expand Banking Services for Chicago Startups

Burling Bank is pleased to announce a new partnership with 1871, Chicago’s premier innovation hub. Through this new relationship, Burling will be providing startup-focused banking services to 1871’s ecosystem of founders and innovators. Members of 1871 will receive access to Burling’s Innovation Banking Suite, built specifically to help founders in Chicago reach their goals.

1871 was founded in 2012 and has been a leader in driving economic development in Chicago ever since. Through their work with countless visionaries in Chicago, they have led the charge in positioning our city as a continued driver of innovation. Through this partnership, Burling will provide 1871’s leaders with another resource to continue that mission.

We believe Chicago’s founders deserve a local bank built to fit their needs, and that is what Burling intends to provide. We look forward to working with 1871’s team and providing a full-service local banking option for Chicago’s startups.
