The creators of Dine America, an annual conference for foodservice executives, are proud to announce that Kat Cole, president of Cinnabon, will kick off the 2011 conference in Atlanta with an exciting keynote presentation on October 10, 2011.

Cole joined Cinnabon as COO in November 2010 and was named president in January, after more than 15 years in the industry.

Before joining FOCUS Brands, Kat was vice president of training and development for Hooters America, the international company that operates and franchises restaurants and manages Hooters Brand Entities. Besides presiding over Cinnabon, Cole is also on the Georgia Restaurant Association’s executive committee and the Women’s Foodservice Forum’s board of directors.
