Soarion Credit Union’s Digital Transformation Flies High

We’re honored to have Greg Barnes, Chief Operations Officer, and Abigail Riesner, Manager of Digital Solutions at the Soarion Credit Union (formerly Air Force Federal Credit Union) on the podcast. They offer an insider’s perspective on their credit union’s ambitious digital transformation that has resulted in decisions like discontinuing CO-OP shared branching, elevating member’s digital experiences, overcoming internal and external challenges, and integrating emerging technologies.

With an eye towards constant evolution through collaborative solutions, Air Force FCU aims to continuously expand their technology ecosystem to empower member financial success. For any organization looking to champion digital advancement, this episode provided inspiration and guidance direct from the source.
