CES Trends Live: Decoding the Show Floor

CES is where the future is introduced—but with thousands of exhibitors and hundreds of product launches, the real challenge isn't discovering innovation; it's understanding what matters. This fast-paced main stage conversation brings together CTA leaders and industry innovators to unpack the defining technology trends shaping this year's show—from AI and robotics to intelligent living, immersive experiences, sustainability, and beyond. This session provides attendees with a practical framework for navigating the show floor, connecting breakthrough technologies to real-world business opportunities, and understanding where the future is taking shape—one exhibit at a time.

The conversation brings together longtime CES trend interpreters, each with a distinct vantage point on where technology is headed and what’s emerging on the show floor: CTA’s own Brian Comiskey, Chris Dethloff and moderator Lori H. Schwartz, CEO of StoryTech, CES’s official tour partner. Together, they’ll connect the macro trends shaping the technology landscape with the products and companies bringing those trends to life across CES.
