STARS @ CES | 2022 LAS VEGAS
IEEE Entrepreneurship attended the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas to seek out the first startups to be inducted into the 2022 Stars Cohort.
CES is a gathering place for all those who thrive on the business of consumer technologies. It has served as a proving ground for innovators and breakthrough-technologies for 50 years. Owned and produced by the Consumer Technology Association (CTA)®, CES attracts world business leaders and pioneering thinkers.
IEEE Entrepreneurship Star judges were on-site in Eureka Park to identify competition candidate ventures with engineering-driven innovation at their core that align with the IEEE core purpose to foster technology, innovation, and excellence for the benefit of humanity. IEEE Entrepreneurship would like to offer the utmost gratitude for the volunteer time and effort of our 2022 CES team of judges:
Simay Akar | Vice-Chair – Products | IEEE Entrepreneurship Stars Judge
