"Amid the pandemic and growing global health concerns about the spread of

COVID-19, it's just not possible to safely convene tens of thousands of people

in Las Vegas in early January 2021 to meet and do business in person," said

Gary Shapiro, president and CEO, CTA. "Technology helps us all work, learn and

connect during the pandemic – and that innovation will also help us reimagine

CES 2021 and bring together the tech community in a meaningful way. By shifting

to an all-digital platform for 2021, we can deliver a unique experience that

helps our exhibitors connect with existing and new audiences."

CES 2021 will be a new immersive experience, where attendees will have a front

row seat to discover and see the latest technology. This highly personalized

experience will bring a global event to the comfort and safety of your home or

office.

For over 50 years, CES has been the global stage for innovation. CTA's goal for

CES 2021 is to provide an engaging platform for companies large and small to

launch products, build brands and form partnerships, while prioritizing health

and safety. Members of the tech community thrive by coming together, sharing

ideas and introducing products that will shape our future.

Mark your calendars for the first week in January and be on the lookout for

more exciting news about CES 2021. We plan to return to Las Vegas for CES 2022,

combining the best elements of a physical and digital show.

Thank you for your continued support. Please stay healthy and safe.
