  • ~ 45 minutes

AI is no longer theoretical for restaurants. It’s already shaping how operators manage labor, inventory, and day-to-day execution. The real question now is where it delivers measurable return.

In this session, Deloitte’s US Restaurants & Food Service Leader, Evert Gruyaert, joins Fourth for a candid discussion grounded in Deloitte’s How AI Is Revolutionizing Restaurants survey of nearly 400 global restaurant executives.

Together we unpack where AI is driving real impact today, why operations are emerging as the next major value unlock, and what it takes to move from experimentation to results.

  • Key takeaways from Deloitte’s global restaurant AI research
  • Where AI is delivering real ROI (especially in labor & inventory)
