Sponsorships

The International CES delivers more distribution channels than any other industry event. Let this powerful audience know exactly how to find you at the 2008 International CES, through targeted or general sponsorships. Watch your ROI grow!






How do you guarantee CES attendees see your logo and company name? Place it alongside the one item that officially makes them CES attendees in the first place: the show badge.

Starting in September, CES begins mailing badges to pre-registrants. By the end of December, more than 85,000 qualified CE professionals - many of them high-level decision makers and executives - have received their show credentials. Put your company logo, tagline, booth number, website address and advertising on the recognizable  insert that accompanies the domestic and international attendee badge mailer. What a great way to brand early and notify attendees about your booth number, product offerings and potential giveaways.

With four months of critical pre-show brand exposure, the deadline for this promotional opportunity comes early. Don't delay.

A great thing about this promotional opportunity:
It drives great booth traffic and drives website traffic four months before CES.
