The challenge

NBO wanted to look like a digital leader without losing its heritage, while rivals with bigger budgets outspent it on marketing.

The idea

The bank introduced the 'AI Family', a set of AI-generated characters who reflect Omani culture and speak to different customer groups. The family appeared across ATMs, branches, social media, SMS, WhatsApp and offline media. Radix Media is the entrant agency named by Campaign Middle East.
