The world’s largest tech show, CES, returned ‘home’ to Las Vegas following a fully virtual showcase last year. Despite some setbacks related to the pandemic, such as popular brands canceling appearances and CES ending a day early, the show was a definite success with over 40,000 attendees in-person, while many others attended digitally. Here are some of our favorite highlights from CES 2022!

Looking Ahead
Because of its hybrid modality, CES 2022 was quite different from previous years. It felt very similar to last year’s convention, which had to navigate through virtual means for the first time ever. As usual, the technology did not disappoint, ultimately demonstrating how well exhibitors were able to adjust to change throughout much uncertainty and difficulty, as well as their commitment to wanting to carry on with exhibiting at the show. Although we’re looking forward to returning to Las Vegas for another in-person show, we expect next years’ experience to be just as great regardless of another hybrid or virtual model.
