Info: Mr. Robert Baldridge of Wilson Warehouse and Jared McGlocklin are our hosts for the event. SCBR is the brainchild of Robert who wanted to create a venue for Baton Rouge to come together and thrive through relationship building, and fostered by sharing the best talent our region has to offer. Jared, provides over a decade in relationship banking and a strong foundation in SBA 7(a) lending, with a thoughtful, solutions-focused approach to every deal. He believes that lending should be more than transactional—it should be personal, strategic, and aligned with long-term success. WELCOME TO SCBR!
