In the award-winning project, John Ryan developed a three-channel, 500-branch digital signage network, featuring screens placed in high-traffic areas of the branch interior and exterior. The network was designed to convey an array of promotional and informational messages in eight languages. The bank's localization efforts produce thousands of simultaneous programming permutations, which are all handled by John Ryan's Messaging Manager platform.
