SOLUM’s solution addresses this shift by enabling real-time measurement of advertising effectiveness and customer engagement in physical stores, providing metrics previously only available in digital commerce.

”Our solution turns retail spaces into dynamic advertising platforms, enhancing the customer experience with personalization,” said Jeon. “Connecting digital signage with ESL enables stores to create more engaging customer experiences while developing new revenue opportunities.” said Jeon. “Connecting digital signage with ESL enables stores to create more engaging customer experiences while developing new revenue opportunities.”

The solution not only improved operational efficiency by eliminating manual price updates but also created new revenue streams through targeted advertising capabilities.

(NYSE: ROK), the world’s largest company dedicated to industrial automation and digital transformation, has extended its highly informative ROKStudios video series, looking at how digital technologies are proving essential to realizing business-critical outcomes across multiple applications.

From exciting sustainability start-ups, through established chocolate and steel production, and on to digitally transformed pharmaceutical operations, the new ROKStudios episodes are a compendium from the company’s Automation Fair 2024 event. The discussions include interviews with founders, managing directors, CEOs, business development managers and team leaders, all of whom face unique challenges, but still unite under a common drive towards more sustainable operations – not just for them, but for their customers, too.

“Digital technologies, by their very nature, are highly adaptable and create firm, yet scalable foundations from which all elements of a business can flourish and grow,” said Gustavo Zecharies, president, Europe, Middle East and Africa, Rockwell Automation. “The diverse range of attendees at Automation Fair highlighted how every facet of the global manufacturing universe sees digitalization as the future, and these ROKStudios interviews showcase how industry leaders and visionaries have achieved their outcomes.”

Dermot Carragher and Peter McGinnity, founders of Irish company ControlSoft Automation Systems, discuss how outdated systems can hinder progress and share how a transition to solutions that unify people and technology is essential for modernization and growth, and how this single-plan-based collaboration is just as critical in the supply chain too.

A global confectionery company representative explains how essential digitalization is in business continuity, not just for handling supply-chain disruptions and the effects of global events, but also for absorbing the pressures of organic and inorganic expansion. He goes onto explain his company’s digital transformation mindset.

Finally, Marti Cortada, U.S. business development manager for Adasoft, a company that specializes in factory management and industry 4.0, explains what best-in-class pharmaceutical operations look like and how his company’s mantra “because people empower factories” makes a real impact.
