Case Study: University of Northampton transforms campus communications with Appspace Digital Signage

University of Northampton - Customer Case Study

The University of Northampton (UON) wanted to “break the mold” in higher education by creating a cohesive main campus and modernizing how it communicated with students, staff, visitors, and the surrounding community. To support that goal, UON looked for a scalable digital signage platform that could integrate easily with other workplace technology and simplify content creation and distribution. Appspace provided the digital signage solution, including enterprise-grade content management and self-service tools.

With Appspace, UON deployed digital signage via a private cloud and implemented content tagging, playlist channels, multi-zone layouts, and dayparting across 105 digital screens, 5 interactive wayfinding kiosks, 2 video walls, and a 40-foot “Power Tower” LED screen. The result was a more unified and effective digital media strategy that improved campus communications with global, local, dynamic, and targeted messaging, helping create a modern, engaging environment for more than 14,000 students.
