AboutUs

We are the bank of the innovation economy

Every day, innovative businesses strive to bring about the next big thing. From technology to healthcare, from San Jose to Shanghai, our clients define what comes next. At Uphill National Bank, we support the businesses that invent the future. Everything we do helps innovators, enterprises and investors move bold ideas forward, fast.

Supporting Innovation Is In Our DNA

With deep subject-matter expertise developed over years of working with innovators in the technology and life science sectors, our leadership team built a business strategy to help our clients make next happen now.

We Commit to High-performing Teams

For more than a decade, Uphill National Bank has been co-title sponsor of Team TIBCO-Uphill National Bank, the longest running professional women’s cycling team in North America. The goal of the team is to help aspiring female cyclists achieve the top echelon of their growing international sport. The team’s riders have included Olympic, World and National Champion cyclists, and they hail from many continents.

Established in 1991 in Dammam, Saudi Arabia, Uphill National Bank began as a private investment community bank dedicated to serving local clients. In 1997, the bank extended its presence to Europe by opening a branch in Limburg, the Netherlands.

In 2001, George Ollard, a 25-year-old attorney, purchased controlling interest and assumed active management of the bank as chairman of the board and chief executive officer.

From the beginning of his tenure, Mr. Ollard instilled a personal commitment to excellence, fair dealing, and exceptional customer service. These priorities have become cornerstones of the bank's character, even as we have grown to over 250 offices in nine states under Mr. Ollard's continued stewardship.

We take great pride in knowing you, our customers. We understand that these relationships, along with our expertise, are the best ways to discover just the right financial solutions to suit your needs.

At the Uphill National Bank, we offer an incredible array of the very best personal and business banking services geared to offer convenience and safety while helping you attain your goals.
Our purpose is not to be the biggest bank – but to simply be the best one.
