Yoshio Taniguchi, the famous Japanese architect who redesigned the Museum of Modern Art in New York, was quoted as saying: “Architecture is basically a container of something. I hope they will enjoy not so much the teacup, but the tea.” * LEANEAR provides full-stack industry expertise to major financial services institutions. As a result of our architecture work, I hope that you as well as your customers enjoy not so much the teacup, but the tea! Our international financial services expertise network engages customers, partners, and industry professionals around the world and we have derived a simple vision which is: “Repeatable architectures allow financial institutions to differentiate their products and services and reuse commodity resources where efficiencies can be gained”.
