When was Consumer Electronics Show created?

The Consumer Electronics Show (CES) was founded in 1967 by the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA). The first CES took place in New York City and featured 17 exhibitors. The show has grown exponentially since then, and in recent years has attracted over 180,000 attendees and 4,500 exhibitors from around the world. CES is now the largest consumer electronics show in the world, and is held annually in Las Vegas, Nevada.
