The Consumer Technology Association (CTA)™ announced that CES® 2015 earned the number one spot on the 2015 Trade Show News Network (TSNN) Top 250 Trade Show List. Determined by show management and data supplied to TSNN, the list represents the top 250 trade shows held last year in the U.S. ranked by net square footage. For nearly 50 years, CES - owned and produced by the Consumer Technology Association - has been the launch pad for next-generation innovations changing the world. CES 2015 was held January 6-9, 2015, in Las Vegas, Nevada.


"It is always an honor to be recognized by TSNN. To earn the number one spot on this prestigious list is incredible," said Karen Chupka, senior vice president, CES and corporate business strategy.

As we look forward to the 50th Anniversary of CES in 2017, we will continue to explore ways to showcase innovation and attract the best minds in the industry while ensuring a positive experience for all our attendees."


In addition to a tradeshow floor spanning 2.23 million net square feet, CES 2015 featured global brands and budding startups who unveiled innovation that will improve lives, connect the world and address major global issues. Leaders from a broad array of industries united at the show to survey and interact with each other. 2015 marked the successful introduction of C Space, the CES hub for leaders in the advertising, marketing and digital content communities. CES 2015 also cemented its position as a truly global event with 48,833 international attendees from 153 countries. 


CES 2016 ran January 6-9 in Las Vegas, welcoming more than 170,000 industry professionals and 3,887 exhibiting companies across the most expansive show floor in the 49-year history of CES - more than 2.47 million net square feet.
