#CES2023: The World’s Most Influential Tech Event
The beginning of every new year marks the annual celebration of cutting-edge & emerging technologies at the CES (Consumer Electronics Show) 2023 in Las Vegas. Apart from being the global stage of innovation for over 50 years, the CES is exceptionally groundbreaking in terms of giving a comprehensive glimpse of the future. This year, the phenomenal tech meetup was held between January 5-8 after being put to a halt over the last two years marred by the Covid-19 pandemic. With an astonishing participation of 3200 exhibitors and 173 countries & regions, this is where the world’s biggest brands meet new partners, and the canniest innovators hit the stage to show off their latest novelties.
Owned and produced by the Consumer Technology Association (CTA), the CES 2023 was also noteworthy for bringing new tech trends into the agenda, such as 5G, AI, AR, VR, XR, Cryptocurrency, NFTs, robotics & drones, smart cities, gaming, Web3 & Metaverse, digital health, and many more.
Breaking Down Breakthrough: Unveiling the Future of Tech at CES 2023
During the event, many startups and well-established companies presented brilliant ideas in their bid to make life better & easier for everybody. Also, renewed interest in emerging tech, such as VR (virtual reality), AR (augmented reality), and wearable VR gadgets, was another important takeaway of the show. The 2023 roundup of the CES spotlighted the Web3 revolution, 3D gaming, luxury & fashion NFTs, blockchain, crypto, and the Metaverse, as we obviously observed an inclined interest toward these new trends. Notably, the Web3 featured techs, like the fashion NFTs and VR headsets, were prominently introduced at the event, even with some separate panel discussions regarding how luxury brands embrace innovation like AI and the Metaverse.
Several brands took the initiative and presented their latest innovations based on the Web3 ecosystem. HTC introduced HTC Vive XR Elite, the latest offering from the brand in its VR/AR headset category. LG’s market-leading displays showcased the best versions of Web3-ready tech; the most luxurious TVs now will stand out with the inclusion of access to several NFT marketplaces and Metaverse platforms. One of the leading payments companies, Mastercard, also revealed its latest big move at CES 2023, called Mastercard Artist Accelerator. The project’s main goal is to join the ranks of the Red Bull Music Academy as one the most influential incubators for next-gen music stars. Apart from all these, the initiative was also remarkable in terms of Web3 adoption because it focused on equipping these emerging superstars with the necessary tools that will make them stand out as Web3 artists.
The auto industry also raced into the Metaverse during the CES 2023: for instance, Valeo presented its latest innovations for cleaner, safer and smarter mobility both in the automotive industry and in new forms of transportation. BMW also came up with a concept car for upcoming models that combines the real and virtual worlds alongside premiering its new ‘i Vision Dee vehicle’. The Turkish global technology & automotive brand Togg introduced a digital mobility garden at the event, enabling visitors to try 4 mobility experiences, such as BeyondX, Trumore, Clean Energy Solutions, and Self.AI.
