RTN's Tech Standards Lab: Fix the Friction & Shape the Future You Need
Date & Time
Tuesday, March 10, 2026, 3:15 PM - 3:55 PM
Description

RTN has already delivered seven industry standards and frameworks to help operators and technology providers reduce friction, improve interoperability, and move faster. As restaurant technology continues to evolve, with AI, integrations, and data complexity accelerating, the next phase of innovation requires deeper industry collaboration.

In this interactive working session, operators and vendors will build on RTN’s existing foundation to identify emerging challenges and help design the next generation of RTN workgroups. Participants will collaborate in small groups to translate real-world operational and technology pain points into actionable ideas that can shape future standards and frameworks.

This session is designed to move beyond discussion and into creation. Attendees will leave with a clear understanding of how RTN drives practical innovation, and how they can play a direct role in defining what comes next for restaurant technology.
