Christopher Lopez – Market Leader & Eyo Antigha Jr. – Branch Leader, BankUnited

Christopher Lopez and Eyo Antigha Jr. are committed to building strong relationships with local business owners and becoming trusted financial partners as their businesses grow.

Topic: Building Banking Relationships & Preparing Your Business for Lending

Strong lending opportunities often begin with a strong banking relationship. Christopher and Eyo will discuss what lenders look for, the importance of business credit, cash flow, financial preparation, and why developing a relationship with your banker before you need financing can better position your business for future lending opportunities. Why BankUnited? We believe banking is more than opening an account it’s about understanding your business, your goals, and where you want to go. Our relationship-focused approach allows us to work alongside business owners, help prepare them for lending, connect them with the right specialists, and provide financial solutions designed to support long-term growth.

Relationship Builders is a Chamber networking group designed to help members create meaningful professional connections, build trust, and generate quality referrals. Through regular meetings, members learn about one another’s businesses, exchange ideas, share opportunities, and support each other’s success.

More than simply exchanging business cards, Relationship Builders provides a welcoming environment where lasting relationships grow into valuable partnerships. It’s another way the Upper Tampa Bay Chamber delivers “Big Chamber Services with a Small Chamber Feel.”
