Jack Doohan: From F1 to a Food-Tech Startup

Formula 1 reserve driver Jack Doohan calls in from the Monaco Grand Prix, recounting his path from a three-year F1 contract to being sidelined and pivoting into tech. He explains his startup's push to build a unified system of record for food service, aggregating data from 80-100 fragmented systems (POS, ERP, supply chain) into a self-learning brain with a forecasting layer, citing botched AI rollouts at Starbucks and Pizza Hut as evidence that proprietary data is the moat. He says the company is contracted across just over 5,000 locations, targets 10,000 by year-end while cash-flow positive, and will raise only from strategic insiders; he also describes the paddock's value as a networking venue and athletes moving into venture.
