DALLAS, July 15, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Bottle Rocket, a proven, global digital product agency and part of the WPP worldwide network is thrilled to announce a new strategic partnership with Olo (NYSE: OLO), a leading restaurant technology provider. This collaboration aims to redefine the digital guest experience by combining Bottle Rocket’s innovative application design and development solutions with Olo’s robust digital ordering platform trusted by over 700 restaurant brands.

Ignite, a digital acceleration platform from Bottle Rocket, offers restaurant brands a bespoke mobile solution with enhanced flexibility and customization that can be built in less time and with less cost by leveraging Ignite’s pre-built foundational components.

Bottle Rocket is known for its pioneering nature and the category-defining work that began with its founding in 2008. The company boasts an expansive history of innovative “firsts” and has created impressive business-changing outcomes and results for industry-leading organizations such as Chick-fil-A, Southwest Airlines, Starwood Hotels & Resorts (since acquired by Marriott), Albertsons, MoneyGram, Dave & Busters, Inspire Brands, McKesson, Bloomin’ Brands, and Verizon, among others.

The company has launched its latest innovation in the form of a digital accelerator for restaurant brands called Ignite. Ignite is a custom digital platform designed to enhance digital growth, loyalty, and retention for restaurants. Based on a comparison of thousands of customer engagements, Ignite allows restaurant brands to create a fully custom mobile and/or web solution in up to 40% less time and with less investment. Ignite was created with a pre-built Olo integration and is purposefully designed to support various restaurant brands. Bottle Rocket’s Ignite and Olo provide a flexible foundation to build differentiated, custom experiences across iOS, Android, and web, unlocking valuable KPIs and scalable innovation.

“A culmination of over a decade of work in the industry, Ignite is an innovative solution that allows restaurant brands an attainable way to create a differentiated brand experience with the added flexibility and scalability that white-label solutions cannot provide,” says Andrew Sevin, Bottle Rocket’s President. “Through Ignite and our strategic partnership with Olo, we are able to help restaurant brands better serve their customers through a fully tailored brand experience that is unique to every brand.”

Bottle Rocket’s depth of experience in the restaurant space, coupled with the creation of the Ignite digital accelerator platform and the integration with Olo, is perfectly suited for restaurant brands wanting to create a new digital ordering experience designed for greater scalability, flexibility, and continued growth.

INDY 500 Stars Join Forces with ZERO Prostate Cancer to Put Veterans’ Health in the Spotlight at Memorial Day Weekend Races

Published

on

By

INDIANAPOLIS, May 23, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — This Memorial Day Weekend, the spotlight won’t only be on speed—it’ll be on saving lives. ZERO Prostate Cancer (ZERO), the nation’s leading advocacy and support organization for prostate cancer, is proud to announce its powerful presence across America’s most iconic motorsports stages: the Indianapolis 500 and NASCAR’s Coca-Cola 600 and BetMGM 300. The message? Veterans are twice as likely to face prostate cancer—and early detection saves lives.

“This weekend isn’t just about racing—it’s about saving lives,” said Josh Bilicki.

In partnership with Juncos Hollinger Racing, ZERO’s logo will be featured on two cars in the 1009th Running of the Indianapolis 500—the world’s biggest single-day sporting event—on Sunday, May 25 at 12:45 PM ET (FOX). ZERO’s logo will appear on the cars of INDYCAR drivers Conor Daly and Sting Ray Robb.

At the same time, ZERO and partner AstraZeneca are making waves in NASCAR’s patriotic tribute weekend with two ZERO-branded vehicles:

No. 66 Ford Mustang driven by Josh Bilicki in the Coca-Cola 600 (Sunday, May 25 at 6:00 PM ET on Amazon Prime)No. 53 Chevrolet Camaro driven by JJ Yeley in the BetMGM 300 (Saturday, May 24 at 1:00 PM ET on The CW)

Together, this high-octane campaign is bringing national visibility to a deadly disease that claims a man’s life every 15 minutes in the U.S.—and hits military Veterans at double the rate of the general population.

“This weekend isn’t just about racing—it’s about saving lives,” said Josh Bilicki. “If even one man schedules a PSA test because of this message, we’ve done our job.”

“As a 48-year-old and part of a sport deeply rooted in the Veteran community, this message really hits home,” said JJ Yeley. “We’re proud to be racing for something bigger than ourselves.”

“Prostate cancer has become too big to ignore,” said Courtney Bugler, President and CEO of ZERO Prostate Cancer. “More than 3 million men in the U.S. are living with this disease, and too many don’t even know they’re at risk—especially our Veterans. Memorial Day is about honoring those we’ve lost, and at ZERO, we’re also fighting to save the ones still here.”

This campaign aligns with ZERO’s bold initiative to save 100,000 lives by 2035, with targeted efforts toward Veterans, Black men, and rural communities—the populations most impacted by the disease.

“It’s time to race toward solutions,” said Daniele Paone, VP US, GYN/GU Cancer Franchise, AstraZeneca. “We’re proud to team up with ZERO and the motorsports community to drive awareness where it’s urgently needed.”

For nearly 30 years, ZERO has been on the front lines of the prostate cancer fight, providing education, support, and advocacy to patients and families. This Memorial Day, from Indy to Charlotte, the message is unmistakable: know your risk, talk to your doctor and get screened.
