BNY Mellon’s Innovation Center is 32,000GSF of state-of-the-art technology working space on the 12th floor of the company’s Pittsburgh headquarters. The brand-new Innovation Center encompasses BNY’s mission to encourage cross-disciplinary interaction and collaboration, through the introduction of efficient staff breakout meetings, hackathons, collaboration sessions, guest presentations, and events.
The main area of the Innovation Center features a technology wall and training room that can be divided to cater to group trainings and breakout sessions of all sizes. In alignment with the company’s multimedia needs, employees have access to a mobile studio cart, allowing for recording and streaming live video, on-the-go interviews, and marketing materials.
The War Room serves as an executive meeting space with the capability of standards-based videoconferencing. This space is used for VIPs and hosting other corporations; featuring panels arranged parallel to each other throughout the room that can run in conjunction with the same content or independently showcase multiple presentations.
The Use-Ability Lab is equipped with flat panels and cameras designed for the recording of focus group participants interacting with the company’s products. These recordings will allow for in-depth analysis and evaluation of user experiences.
