We attended (virtually) TechTable Summit 2020 on December 15, 2020, presented by Zagat.

One of our favourite session was:

Adapting to new strategies around social media, data, guest relations, and how restaurants can leverage digital platforms to grow their businesses.

The panel included:

Nick Tran - Head of Global Marketing, Tiktok @atsignnick

Lila King - Head of News and Publishing at Instagram @lilacina

Rachel Karten - Social Media Consultant, formerly with Bon Appetit @milkkarten

What a panel!
