CES has historically been a launch pad for many companies’ new wares. This year is no exception as firms ramp up their efforts to grab attention with the latest gadget developments. CES 2023, which takes place Jan. 5-8, is packed full of exhibitors across several venues throughout Las Vegas– everything from the latest in artificial intelligence (AI), to new metaverse gadgets, updated laptops and PCs, and even home appliances.

This year, CES says more than 323 Fortune Global 500 Companies have registered, along with 85 Interbrand 100 companies covering 41 technology categories. Showrunners say 174 countries are represented at these year’s massive event.

“For anyone who goes there, I think CES is a beacon of hope and optimism,” CES CEO Gary Shapiro said in a statement. “It starts the new year not only on a positive note, but on a note where you realize that you could cut deals, and you could do things, you could be inspired, you could find partners, you could establish business relationships which will change your company or even change the world.”
