What SOLUM does

SOLUM operates a B2B infrastructure model centred on connected display and IoT deployments. It supplies retail and enterprise environments with a stack that includes signage control, CMS, analytics, pricing automation, remote device management, and adjacent workflow tools. Value is created by integrating physical in-store hardware, software control layers, and operational analytics into one environment that helps customers manage stores, displays, pricing, and shopper engagement. A higher-value extension of this model is its retail media capability, which lets retailers monetise in-store screens and shelf-edge assets as advertising inventory. This creates a layered business model: infrastructure and software are sold to operators, while the media layer can generate platform fees and potentially variable revenue linked to campaign usage and attribution.

Category differentiation

This company is not a consumer app or a pure advertising network. It is a B2B retail and enterprise technology provider combining connected display infrastructure, software control, analytics, and in-store media monetisation tools.

Company news briefing

Briefing updated:

SOLUM has strengthened its European retail presence through strategic partnerships with Skippify and Simbe, focusing on the integration of real-time shelf communication and autonomous store intelligence with its Electronic Shelf Label (ESL) infrastructure. Additionally, the company launched its next-generation Newton Core+ ESL at the Retail Technology Show 2026 in the UK. These developments indicate a focus on scaling smart in-store signage and automated retail operations across the region.

Business model & monetisation

SOLUM monetises through integrated deployments that combine hardware with recurring software. The main commercial mechanisms are likely software subscriptions or licensing for CMS, analytics, remote management, pricing, and workflow tools; project and deployment revenue attached to display and ESL installations; and retail media platform economics through campaign management, measurement, and monetisation enablement for retailer-owned media inventory. The retail media layer likely uses platform fees and/or revenue share, while the broader stack is primarily subscription-led and enterprise sales-led.
