Food! How appropriate – it is the holidays after all. But, technology and food? ‘TechnoFood‘ is the theme for this event! No one would ever think these two things would go together. Food is a vital part of our existence. But as we all know, technology has changed the world, so it is only appropriate that it has changed the way the food service industry works.
Join us the morning of Wednesday, December 16th as we welcome the leaders of two companies that have created innovative ideas to intersect the two! One company has greatly benefited our children’s lives by helping schools serve healthier meals to kids with their extensive menu planning and nutritional analysis. The other has found ways to maximize efficiency of the service and hospitality industry, as well as the education arena.
They have taken food to a whole new perspective. Come and hear these great speakers talk about their companies. It’ll make you hungry for more!
The Rising Stars series gives us an ‘up close and personal’ look at what it takes to found and grow a successful business in the Rochester region.
This event is free, but pre-registration is required. Event is limited to 135 participants, so be sure to register early!
