Free Webinar: Transforming Restaurant Management with AI and DX

As the restaurant industry grapples with unprecedented labor shortages, innovative solutions become essential. Join Crossbit Co., Ltd., a Tokyo-based company focused on enhancing the work experience, in collaboration with the General Incorporated Association for AI Digital Productivity, for a free online webinar on September 10, 2025, titled "Strategies for Surviving the Labor Shortage Era: Efficient Store Management Techniques Using AI and DX."

About the Webinar

In 2025, the challenges in the restaurant sector are at an all-time high, with increasingly difficult recruitment processes and increased training and management burdens. As a consequence, store managers find themselves overwhelmed with tasks like shift adjustments and employee cost management, leaving little time to focus on increasing sales and improving service quality.
This webinar aims to address these pressing issues by demonstrating how to implement practical changes in the workplace through a dual approach involving Digital Transformation (DX) methodologies and skill development through AI training. Furthermore, we will explore financial incentives available, such as the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare’s Human Resource Development Support Grants, which can cover up to 75% of costs, allowing for low-cost implementation.
Whether you are looking to establish a framework that functions efficiently even with staff shortages or to implement systems that foster talent development, this webinar provides valuable insights to ease the operational burdens and boost positive outcomes in your establishment.
