A CES speaker is a thought leader, an innovative thinker and an industry influencer.
CTA encourages the industry to bring forward thought leaders, innovators and technology experts to be considered for the opportunity to be on one of the world's most influential platforms.
Global innovation will achieve its fullest potential by embracing individuals from all backgrounds.
We're calling on the entire tech industry to ensure we have full representation and a diversity of voices on the CES 2020 stage.
CES provides a platform for tech experts at every stage of their careers, from startups in Eureka Park to global brands on our stages.

Due to the significant number of submissions we receive each year for limited speaking slots, the CES content team makes selections considering the following criteria:
Applicants will be notified of their CES 2020 speaking status on Oct. 11, 2019.
The CES Conference Advisory Board comprises some of the industry’s most credible and distinguished thought leaders throughout various areas of technology. The board counsels CTA on the strategic direction for the conference program, speaker recommendations and content themes and provides insight into the research community.
The Consumer Technology Association (CTA)™ strives to deliver one of the most empirical speaker selection processes in the industry. The best submissions demonstrate the speaker is a catalyst for innovation and change and an influencer in the industry.
Speakers are responsible for arranging their own hotel and travel arrangements. CES does not pay speakers to participate in the conference program or to travel to CES.
Press and analysts have complimentary access to conference sessions.
