EGADE Business School deploys
wavetec's financial displays
at Financial Lab

Project Requirements

EGADE Business School required a turnkey solution to create the environment of a mock stock trading floor at its Financial Lab for students studying Finance. The use of visual aids and interactive displays in educational institutes is becoming a fundamental aspect of imparting education and explaining new concepts to students.

As a part of EGADE Business School’s commitment to innovation and its mission to develop internationally competitive business leaders, EGADE wanted to invest in financial displays to provide the best educational environment to its students.

Our Solution

By creating a mock stock trading environment in its financial Lab, EGADE wanted to impart a sound understanding of the financial industry with a practical approach. The Financial Lab at EGADE will enable students to apply their information of the finance field to the online, real-time trading data showing on the screen and learn the mechanics of trading.

Wavetec installed a 32m long ticker at the Financial Lab of EGADE Business School to create an environment of a trading floor in the financial lab.  The 32m * 26 cm ticker, with a resolution of 7872*64 pixels, bordering the walls of the lab is integrated with Thompson Reuters feed, and disseminates real-time financial information to students allowing them to experience and learn how stock markets operate.

On the successful installation of the ticker, German Martinez, Regional Manager Wavetec, in Latin America said,

“Wavetec specializes in providing turnkey LED display solutions to financial markets and institutions; we are pleased to partner with EGADE Business School as this venture will contribute towards creating a practical Financial Lab, and make learning interesting.”
