Restaurant executives joined the Hospitality Hangout LIVE from the FSTEC Conference to talk technology, guest experience and growth
NEW YORK CITY, NY, UNITED STATES, October 8, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Branded Hospitality Media recorded the Hospitality Hangout live from FSTEC 2026, the foodservice technology conference held September 23-25 at the Gaylord Texan Resort & Convention Center in Grapevine, Texas. The activation, presented in partnership with Displai, brought together executives from some of the industry’s fastest-moving restaurant brands for candid conversations on the technology shaping how restaurants operate and serve guests.
The Guests
Recorded on site at FSTEC, the episodes feature:
• Patric Knapp, Bobby’s Burgers by Bobby Flay
• Ashley Helkenn, Bonchon
• Jeff Caplan, Church’s Chicken
• Tuan Ho, Displai
The live recordings were part of Branded Media’s on-site podcast activation at FSTEC, which turned the show floor into a studio and gave attendees a front-row seat to the conversations happening across the industry. By recording where operators, technology leaders and suppliers were already gathered, Branded Media captured unscripted insight from the people making decisions in real time. The activation reflects Branded Media’s broader approach of meeting the hospitality community where it is and turning major industry moments into content that lives well beyond the event itself.
The series was made possible by Displai, which joined as partner and brought its own perspective to the lineup through Tuan Ho. Displai helps restaurants and other brick-and-mortar brands create better in-location experiences through AI-powered digital signage, self-service kiosks and visitor analytics.
Episodes from FSTEC 2026 will be available starting November 24th on the Hospitality Hangout, on all your favorite streaming platforms.
