Show Notes

In the latest episode of the #StartupShow, we are all about web development, Swiss startup ecosystem and insightful feedback. To find out the latest trends in hospitality, Cédric met with Jörg Wasmeier, CTO at Appetita.


Jörg Wasmeier is a senior front-end developer based in Zurich, that has worked as a freelancer for the past 12 years. Speaking of freelancing, he claims that there are lots of ups and downs, especially if you invest everything you earn into developing your own ideas. As CTO at Appetita, Wasmeier participated in last year’s F10 accelerator. Click the video below to find out more about his experience with this program.


Appetita is a virtual waiter that is ready to serve you as soon as you sit in a restaurant. It is able to present you with the menu, to discuss your special inquiries and answer your questions. Appetita will send your order to the kitchen without any hassle and at the end, it will provide quick payment methods. Convenient, isn’t it?
