TechTable and Culterra Capital Release 2021 Restaurant Tech Ecosystem Map

New York, NY, July 01, 2021 --(PR.com)-- The last several years have seen a vast proliferation of tech within the restaurant and hospitality industries, and it is an understatement to say there has been a massive shift in operations over the past 18 months due to the pandemic.

In an effort to categorize the variety of technology players transforming restaurant operations and the guest experience, TechTable, a platform and annual summit dedicated to innovation at the intersection of hospitality and technology, and Culterra Capital, an investment and advisory firm focused exclusively on tech-driven innovation across the food supply chain, have partnered to update and present the 2021 Restaurant Tech Ecosystem Map. The map is sponsored by Back Of House, a platform to help independent restaurateurs find, filter, and save on the solutions their businesses need to succeed.

The Map highlights over 225 tech start-ups and veterans operating in the primary segments of the sector. The map may be viewed or downloaded at: www.techtable.com, or www.culterracapital.com.

Among the numerous segments in the ecosystem, TechTable and Culterra Capital expect the following areas to experience growth and momentum through 2022:
· Voice/Bot Technology, · Robotics/Automation, · Shared/Ghost Kitchens, · Food Safety/Quality, · Ordering and Payments will continue to evolve, · Marketing Analytics/ CRM, and Order/Delivery (both B2B and consumer-facing marketplaces) will continue to consolidate.

The 2021 Restaurant Tech Ecosystem Map breaks down the industry into the following key segments: Search/Discovery; Reservations/Event Management; Corporate Meals/Catering; Order/Delivery Marketplaces (B2C); Marketing Analytics/CRM; Point-of-Sale; Order/Delivery (B2B); On-Premise Ordering/Payments; Voice/Bot Technology; Robotics/Automation; Shared/Ghost Kitchens; Food Safety/Quality; Food Waste Management; HR/Staffing; Operations/Business Intelligence; and Purchasing/Inventory/Back Office.
