History

The first CES was held in June 1967 in New York City. It was a spinoff from the Chicago Music Show, which, until then, had served as the main event for exhibiting consumer electronics. The event had 17,500 attenders and over 100 exhibitors. From 1978 to 1994, CES was held twice each year: once in January in Las Vegas known for Winter Consumer Electronics Show (WCES) and once in June in Chicago, known as Summer Consumer Electronics Show (SCES).

Since the summer Chicago shows were beginning to lose popularity, in 1998, the show changed to a once-a-year format with Las Vegas as the location.

 CES 2021 goes digital

A digital version of the Consumer Electronics Show kicked off on January 11 virtually showcasing technology innovations from around the world as the pandemic has people relying on gadgets and the internet in their daily lives.

The extravaganza has traditionally pulled in more than 4,000 exhibitors from startups to big multinationals, with upwards of 175,000.

And although this year’s all-digital event was a significantly different experience from past shows, there was plenty of innovative tech on display. From smart toilets and disinfecting robots to transparent OLED displays and sleep tech, CES 2021 was a showcase for the latest innovations in consumer and enterprise technology.
