OLD AND BUSTED: Viva Las Vegas!
The New Hotness? CES 2021 Moves to an All-Digital Experience.
“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, [the Consumer Technology Association.] “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.”
No matter who wins in November, it will be curious to see how long it takes before the Coronavirus moves out of the headlines.
