We're wrapping up Let us Nudge travel for 2024, with our final trips to Austin and Houston, TX! Thank you Texas McCombs School of Business MBA team for presenting new verticals to us. Thank you, LaDora Gilmore, MSHRD and Texas Restaurant Association, for some great relationships in progress! The problem is real at Franklin Barbecue, Aga's, and Bundu Khan... and we're hoping to solve it soon with our solutions. #dining #tech #letusnudge

Our recent trip to Italy reinforces the global opportunity for Let us Nudge as we nudged ~30 restaurants, gelaterias, and coffee shops. Yes, we'll have to manage cultural norms and sensitivities on a case-by-case basis. BUT waiting in 104 degree heat in 2 hour lines, or seeing completely empty restaurants in tourist destinations, should help change that mindset quickly to drive our purpose and mission!
