Eureka Park Entry Criteria

Qualifying to exhibit in Eureka Park at CES is a selective process. CTA reviews every application to identify the most compelling, innovative startups.

What CTA Looks For

CTA’s review team evaluates each applicant’s website, product pitch and vision to build a showcase of the most promising new companies in consumer technology.

  • Consumer Tech Relevance

    The startup must offer a product or service directly tied to consumer technology, including smart devices, wearables, AI, health tech, vehicle tech, Audio/Video, smart cities, enterprise technology and related categories. The technology must be demo-ready as a prototype, beta or branded final product. Concepts or components for another device do not qualify.

  • True Startup Status

    Eureka Park is for early-stage companies, often pre-launch or recently launched, with a first product introduced on or after January 1, 2026. Companies with years of sales history are not a fit.

  • Standout Innovation

    The technology must be fresh, disruptive and positioned to attract investor, media or market attention. CTA is curating the most exciting breakthroughs, so applicants should clearly tell their story and explain what makes their product original.

  • First-Time or Limited Exhibitor Status

    Startups are generally limited to exhibiting in Eureka Park for a maximum of two years. First-time exhibitors are prioritized. Alumni may return once more if their product has not fully launched and they still meet all other criteria. Companies that have exhibited elsewhere at CES outside Eureka Park are typically ineligible.

  • No Intellectual Property Conflicts

    The startup must have a clean intellectual property record, with no known disputes or legal issues that could affect its credibility or participation.
