One highlight of IIDEXCanada in Toronto last week was a tour of Scotiabank Digital Factory, the innovative new fintech hub created by IA Interior Architects for Bank of Nova Scotia, Canada’s third-largest bank by deposits and market cap, with assets of nearly $1-trillion, serving more than 23 million customers in 55 countries.
We interviewed one of the tour leaders, Beverly Horii, IA Toronto’s managing director and principal, at her firm’s office to chat about why Scotiabank’s Digital Factory has stimulated such interest within the A&D and business communities, and more generally, how IA’s first Canadian branch is doing.
