Synovus Place Wins 2026 Global Digital Signage Award for Omni-Channel Design and Execution

DBSI is proud to announce that Synovus Place has been selected as a winner of the 2026 Global Digital Signage Awards in the Omni-Channel Design and Execution category, earning recognition alongside global brands including Samsung Electronics, Skechers, and Delta Air Lines.

This award recognizes Synovus Place, a flagship branch designed in partnership with Synovus, as a standout example of how thoughtful digital signage strategy can bridge physical and digital experiences. Rather than functioning as a traditional lobby, the flagship serves as a connected communications system that unifies environments, content, and client touchpoints across multiple channels.

“Synovus Place reflects what’s possible when digital is treated as part of the experience, not layered on top of it. It’s an omnichannel framework built to inform, invite, and guide clients to the right next step, wherever their journey begins,” said Mike Forsyth, Director of Transformation Strategy at DBSI.

As a longtime strategic partner to Synovus, DBSI collaborated closely with Synovus teams to evolve their digital signage program into a seamless ecosystem. The work was delivered through DBSI’s in-house Creative Experience Agency, which fuses strategy, design, implementation, and content to bring DBSI’s digital signage capabilities to life for clients nationwide.

Supporting Synovus’s network of more than 240 locations, the project is backed by a cohesive content strategy that keeps messaging consistent while still giving local teams room to highlight what matters in their communities.

“Great digital signage is where strategy, functionality, and creativity meet,” said Mark Severin, Digital Signage Manager at DBSI. “Synovus Place is a clear example of what is possible when you build with intention, design to perform, and implement a content strategy that can evolve with the organization.”

Winners were announced at the Global Digital Signage Awards annual ceremony on February 2, 2026, at the Hotel Miramar Barcelona.
