Innovator Gil Harel
Who He Is: Though he got his start working in the marketing department of Israel?s Isrotel hotel chain and at Expedia, the 39-year-old Cornell MBA now focuses on the restaurant and bar industry with his new website, Bitehunter.
His Big Idea: The Bitehunter site and its iPhone app scour more than 500 online sources including Gilt City, OpenTable, restaurant.com, and even Twitter to locate the best deals in any given area. It?s a Kayak-style approach for dining deals, which Harel acknowledges as inspiration for his food-focused search engine: ?Historically, airlines adopt cutting-edge technology first, followed by hotels, then restaurants.? And as foodie deal services such as Groupon and BlackboardEats continue to proliferate, his simple aggregator is a welcome resource.
