Truist Financial Corporation has established a new Innovation and Technology Center (ITC) in Charlotte, North Carolina.   

The 100,000 ft2 client-centred technology centre features client journey rooms, a research lab and collaboration hubs.

Client journey rooms are designed to cater to the personal banking requirements of wealth clients and businesses of all types and sizes, the company said.

The new centre also includes a Makers Space, where Truist teammates will develop prototypes to test and refine new products and services.

It also features an 18-person contact centre, which will allow engineers, designers and product owners to connect with call centre agents to get instant feedback directly from clients.

Truist chief information officer Scott Case said: “The new Truist Innovation and Technology Center is ultimately all about our clients—a unique space that brings together direct client input with some of the best and brightest talent in the industry to build an innovative ecosystem that will propel Truist into the future.
