In today's day and age being a part of the tech industry is all the rage. But someone who was interested in all things tech even before it became cool, is Idris Lura. Idris Lura is originally from Australia but moved to Texas in 2005. Today, he is the CEO and founder of Letsgrub, a tech company that connects people through their love for food.
Idris Lura wanted to build a platform that would help people connect over something that is common to all. With Letsgrub in existence it is now easy to meet likeminded individuals from different countries and backgrounds, not only in terms of geography but also in terms of food. Different cultures have different methods of collecting and growing ingredients as well as differences in using them as part of a dish. However, if you are exposed to enough of these different cultures, one can often notice blatant similarities which take away the shock factor that many feel in "exotic" food. In this manner, not only is Letsgrub being used as a site to connect with foodies across the globe, but also teaches a lesson along the lines of the recent "don't yuck my yum" movement visible on social media.
Through Letsgrub, Idris Lura has been successful in bringing together the two major aspects of humanity- food and business. However this is not to say that anyone who participates in this field can become successful. Both the food industry and the tech entrepreneurship industry possess huge levels of competition and it can be difficult for newcomers to make it large in a short span of time. This is why Idris Lura has always mentioned making connections to be one of the most important steps any business owner can take.
Getting to know people in the industry works in two ways. Firstly these connections can form a network which can be used to advertise your business to a wider audience base. On the other hand, considering these connections are either competitors or could be otherwise involved in your own supply chain, there is much to be learnt from those who have already been in the game. Idris Lura has put in hours of dedication working on Letsgrub, treating it like a passion project just so that it could be successful in the future. Fortunately, all his hard work has paid off and now, Letsgrub is considered one of the best services that is revolutionising how people view food.
Letsgrub has only recently started making waves in the industry and has a long way to go before it takes a stand. Make sure to follow Idris Lura and Letsgrub's journey to the top by checking out their social media profiles today!
