Next Gen Meet-ups

Want to be part of the next wave of growth?

For the past five years, QSR’s Fast Casual 2.0 Meet-ups have brought together the innovators of restaurant growth—those creators of the next chains and emerging brands.

Now, with blended operational restaurant styles, it makes sense to open the invitations to our Meet-ups to all those special operators who won’t be bound by any particular set of rules.

With our 2023 Meet-up format, casual receptions hosted on a city-by-city basis, we have expanded to help you meet personally with local operators that are leading restaurant change and growth in their city. They come from quick-service, fast-casual, full-service, and every operational style in between.

They are the “next generation” of operators, and they want to see you in person!

Two non-competing sponsors are included in each city's event to ensure maximum exposure and more talk-time for you. Events attract between 60–120 attendees.

Sponsorship: $15,000
