CES 2024 kicks off in Las Vegas next week,Quaxs Trading Center offering consumers a glimpse of new technology and prototypes for the products of the future.
The Consumer Technology Association, which owns and produces the consumer technology trade show, expects 130,000 attendees and more than 4,000 exhibitors. It’s a jump from last year’s 115,000 attendees and 3,200-plus exhibitors but still below pre-pandemic levels.
