Building on Pericom’s Legacy

This June we proudly celebrated the 50th anniversary of Pericom (now fully part of Digital Origin Solutions), whose expertise now underpins much of what we do at Digital Origin. From pioneering early computer systems, to shaping today’s foreign exchange boards seen across UK high streets. Pericom’s legacy has helped us grow into a leader in digital signage.

Today, with more than 9,000 units installed across the UK and Europe, our in‑house team continues to design, build, and maintain innovative display solutions. If you’ve seen a foreign exchange board in a high street bank, chances are it’s one of ours.

And this technology is making a real difference for our clients. As Kostas Kallias, Performance Manager at No1 Currency shares:

“Since Digital Origin installed digital boards in our agents’ stores, we’ve seen a significant increase in sales. The ability to display live currency rates and promotions has driven impulse purchases and boosted overall revenue. Customers appreciate the dynamic content, which makes exchanging currency more engaging and informative while updates happen instantly across all locations, saving time and resources.”

And as the world of digital signage is constantly evolving, so is our product range. Through our in-house team we scope, conceptualise and build a whole variety of solutions designed to support marketing, facilities, operations and IT teams, ensuring every display delivers real impact.

Looking Ahead: Digital Signage in 2026

As we move into 2026, digital signage is evolving beyond external marketing. With more people returning to offices, businesses are recognising the importance of internal communication and community-building. Screens are becoming tools for brand advocacy, delivering welcome messages, team news and updates that make employees feel part of something bigger.

The brand experience internally and externally has never been more important. And digital signage is now a key advocate for it. The latest solutions are plug-and-play, flexible and easy to update, ensuring messages are never static but dynamic, relevant and engaging. From reinforcing company culture to enhancing the workplace environment, digital signage is set to become a cornerstone of marketing strategies.

And of course, AI is taking this even further. In 2026 we can expect to see AI-driven content that adapts in real time. Displaying messages based on factors like:

• weather,
• audience demographics,
• and even contextual triggers.

Expect smarter scheduling, predictive content recommendations and analytics-driven insights to become standard features in the digital signage landscape.
