The Consumer Electronic Show (CES), perhaps the most influential tech fair in the world, is around the corner. Held annually in Las Vegas, it is where the latest and greatest in technology is showcased.
Come January, the 2023 edition of CES will see the participation of 70 of the brightest and forward-thinking startups/scale-ups from the Netherlands.
The NL Tech Pavilion at CES 2023 includes two pavilions for the second year in a row. The ‘Netherlands Tech Square’ will feature the 40 newest and best startups. 30 other scale-ups will offer their innovative solutions in the ‘Netherlands Next Level Innovations Pavilion.’
The Netherlands has participated in CES six times prior, and this year will be their seventh. In the past, more than 250 Dutch companies have visited the fair. As a result of their attendance and participation, those companies are estimated to have generated nearly 10,000 high-quality jobs throughout the country.
‘CES Unveiled Amsterdam’
The official kickoff of the Dutch mission is on Thursday, October 13, during the ‘CES Unveiled Amsterdam’ programmed in the Beurs van Berlage. The event is organised by the Consumer Technology Association (CTA) in partnership with the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate.
Minister Micky Adriaansens, Economic Affairs and Climate, will open CES Unveiled and visit the Dutch participating innovations.
Adriaansens says, “The CES is a proven world stage for Dutch startups and scale-ups to present their innovative solutions. Not only on the international market but also to interested investors. This allows these entrepreneurs to grow. We do that by bringing seventy companies that develop promising technologies or products.”
In addition to the Dutch companies, startups from the Visegrad region and Germany are also presenting their products, a unique event for CES Unveiled Amsterdam.
There will also be keynote sessions from Gary Shapiro, president and CEO of CTA, Ali Niknam, founder and CEO of bunq, and Sabine Stuiver, co-founder of Hydraloop, among others.
