Every hospitality startup pitches a similar story: better tech, faster growth, bigger returns. Someone has to decide which ones are worth the check. On this episode, Matt is joined by Chris Hemmeter, Managing Partner at Thayer Investment Partners. They talk about how venture capital finds and funds the future of hospitality tech: what convinces investors, what makes a business worth the investment risk, and where the smart money thinks this industry goes next.
Chris Hemmeter is a Managing Partner at Thayer Investment Partners, a venture capital platform investing in technology companies in the travel and mobility space. Chris has over 35 years in and around startups and high-growth businesses in travel, hospitality and technology, having founded seven companies.
