Meet the Top 3 Start-Up Alley Finalists
LIVE WEBINAR: 5.12.26 | 2 PM ET
Every year, RTN’s Start-Up Alley at MURTEC identifies the technology that will move from "novelty" to "necessity", and this year, we are focusing on the three things every operator cares about most: Driving foot traffic, scaling bottom-line growth, and slashing utility costs.
Meet the founders behind the solutions and learn how to implement these three critical drivers in your organization:
-
Drive Foot Traffic with Scale Social (Grand Prize Winner): Learn how to turn your customers into your most effective marketing team. Scale Social is an AI-powered UGC "supply chain" that automates the sourcing and licensing of customer photos and videos to create high-performing ads that actually get people through your doors.
-
Drive Bottom-Line Growth with Saivory (Finalist): Discover the platform built by restaurants, for restaurants. See how advanced technology can help you acquire, manage, and monetize your guest data more effectively to maximize the value of every single customer.
-
Drive Utility Costs Down with Cap Energy (Finalist): Take control of your back-of-house expenses with specialized energy dashboards. Learn how to use weather-driven insights and performance benchmarking to uncover hidden usage patterns and significantly reduce your energy spend.
Presented in partnership with our sponsor, SageNet, this isn’t a pitch session! This is a masterclass in modern restaurant efficiency. Join us as we sit down with the teams behind these three innovations to learn how they are helping you protect your margins, capture more revenue, and keep more money in your pocket.
