The Five V’s Of CES 2020

A mere eight weeks before COVID rocked our world, Jacobs Media spent this first week in January in 2020 at CES. In fact, multiple tours of radio broadcasters toured the latest and greatest of this amazing show, along with 180,000 of our “best friends.” That may end up being a high-water mark for this event. Today’s “throwback post” provides a good look at how we were thinking and processing CES just five years ago, and what the trends we saw back then meant to the radio broadcasting industry. In all, 60 radio execs joined us that year to witness for themselves the grandeur, energy, and fun that is CES. It’s a reminder of why this event was important back in 2020 as well as its value today.
