It’s also important to point out that CES is a showcase for actual product vendors and an event to learn about what’s happening in the consumer technology space. For example, it was immensely gratifying to see esteemed research firm Parks Associates conduct an in-person event on the smart home for the first time in 2 years, which attracted more than 200 participants and was joined by numerous top-echelon industry leaders.
