As foodservice operators find more reasons to use LTE to improve customer service and business efficiency, they also are asking how to prepare for 5G — which will be available in 2020.

On Nov. 21 at 2 p.m. EST, Fast Casual presents a webinar, "Why LTE and 5G are on the menu for restaurants," featuring Anthony Lawson — manager of technical marketing engineering for Cradlepoint, a provider of cloud delivered network solutions.

In this webinar, foodservice operators will learn how solutions that are on the pathway to 5G will enable them to leverage connected IoT technologies and cloud applications now while also planning for the future.

Lawson brings 20 years of experience as a solutions engineer and chief solution architect in the computer networking industry. In his tenure, he has worked with several restaurant and retail customers to leverage IT networking to improve business continuity and drive efficiencies.

Elliot Maras, editor of Kiosk Marketplace and Food Truck Operator, will moderate the webinar.
