Consumer Electronics Association (CEA) announced Oct. 16 that it will kick off its first CES Unveiled international event for 2015 in Tokyo. This new products and technology news showcase will be held Feb. 18 in Tokyo, to be followed by events in several other international cities throughout the year.
The CES Unveiled series brings innovative technology companies, top media, buyers, analysts and key industry influencers together to highlight and review new products and tech trends originating at the International CES.
“With Japan’s long history of leading innovation across the consumer technology industry and bringing breakthrough products to the International CES, it is only fitting we bring our Unveiled series to Tokyo,” said Gary Shapiro, president and CEO, CEA. “We received such strong feedback from the Japanese technology community when we met with them earlier this year that we knew the companies, from tech startups to established successes, would welcome the opportunity to participate in this event and showcase the next generation of innovations birthed in Japan to media, buyers, VCs and other key audiences.”
