Each success story sparks collaboration, inspires progress, and attracts resources, paving the way for what's possible in Central Texas. This recognition is a testament to the strength and innovative spirit of our startup community. Let's keep this momentum going! #InternationalAccelerator #AustinTech #OpportunityAustin

Always fun to give back to Rutgers to talk about our Let us Nudge journey so far. Thank you, Prof. Gary Minkoff for the guest lecturer opportunity for your Entrepreneurial classes.

Great to be involved with Rutgers Business School on multiple projects in process.... stay tuned!

Let us Nudge was back at International Accelerator this week in Austin, TX. Great to pitch to SMU Cox School of Business. Thanks again Joshua T. and Bhavna Kumar.

Looking forward to our project deliverables soon. #McCombsPlus #hookem #tech

Our recent trip to Italy reinforces the global opportunity for Let us Nudge as we nudged ~30 restaurants, gelaterias, and coffee shops. Yes, we'll have to manage cultural norms and sensitivities on a case-by-case basis. BUT waiting in 104 degree heat in 2 hour lines, or seeing completely empty restaurants in tourist destinations, should help change that mindset quickly to drive our purpose and mission!

Thanks again Audra Gibson for the invitation to yesterday's Techstars event. Quick trip to NYC to meet up with Yale Entrepreneurs and my fellow founders Jerry, Nikki Merkerson, and Jai Kumar! It was great to see the Yale students reaction to Let us Nudge! Evening topped off with Yale University winning 11th pitch completion vs New York University. Great job all! #techstars #yale #nyu #letusnudge #nyc

We are excited to continue our journey in Texas following the Texas Restaurant Association Show. We have returned to Austin and are now at the International Accelerator! Our heartfelt thanks go to LaDora Gilmore, MSHRD for TRA's unwavering support, valuable connections, and assistance in introducing J-Prime Steakhouse as our potential first pilot in this amazing city! We also extend our gratitude to the incredible Taha Memon for your valuable time, insightful ideas, and connections that are helping us scale Let Us Nudge. Relentless '24 is in full swing, and we are eager for what lies ahead!

Had an amazing time in San Antonio with the Let us Nudge team! A huge thank you to everyone who stopped by to discuss our innovative seating maximization technology for both busy and slow periods. Special thanks to the Texas Restaurant Association for hosting such a fantastic event, and to Madison Gessner, MBA and LaDora Gilmore, MSHRD for their support. Looking forward to the exciting opportunities ahead! #SanAntonio #LetUsNudge #SeatingMaximization #TexasRestaurantAssociation #TXRestaurantShow  #TXRestaurants #Restaurants #FoodShow #RestaurantShow
