Watch the full LinkedIn Live replay: Qu CEO Amir Hudda joins host Michael Beck for a candid conversation on the State of Digital for Enterprise Restaurants — Qu's annual research report on how the largest restaurant brands are investing in digital ordering, point-of-sale modernization, kiosks, drive-thru, loyalty, and AI.
In this discussion, Amir and Michael go beyond the headline numbers to talk about what enterprise QSR and fast-casual operators are actually getting right — and where most digital transformation projects are still stuck. They cover where digital ordering revenue is growing, why so many brands are still running on aging POS systems, what's realistic for AI in restaurants in the next 12–24 months, and how operators should prioritize investment when budgets are tight.
What you'll hear:
- Key findings from Qu's State of Digital for Enterprise Restaurants report
- Where digital channels (mobile, web, kiosk, drive-thru, third-party) are gaining vs. plateauing
- Why legacy POS is the hidden bottleneck behind most digital initiatives
- A practical view of AI in restaurants — what's hype, what's actually shipping
- How CIOs, CTOs, and operators should sequence modernization across corporate and franchise stores
- Lessons from enterprise brands like Blaze Pizza and Golden Chick on running unified commerce at scale
Who this is for: restaurant CIOs, CTOs, COOs, VPs of digital and IT, and franchise leaders evaluating their POS, ordering, and digital roadmap.
