This past May, the Consumer Technology Association (CTA) launched CES Foundry, a new destination at CES 2026 dedicated to accelerating breakthroughs in AI, blockchain, and quantum technologies. CES Foundry, located at Fontainebleau Las Vegas, will unite innovators, entrepreneurs, investors, media, and industry leaders in exploring how these transformative technologies are defining the future.
“CES Foundry is a community for global innovators to unite and solve,” said Kinsey Fabrizio, President, CTA. “This is where brilliant minds in AI, blockchain, and quantum will collide, collaborate, and create solutions to the world’s greatest challenges, from improving health care to reinventing global finance. You don’t want to miss our new launchpad for what’s next.”
Just steps from the Las Vegas Convention Center’s West Hall, CES Foundry will feature live demos, top-tier networking, and two stages of immersive content. This is the premier destination for emerging leaders and established names to gain visibility in the rapidly evolving AI, blockchain, and quantum industries. Small demo stations, ideal for showcasing cutting-edge products and sparking meaningful engagement, are available. CES Foundry hosts unparalleled networking opportunities, bringing together pioneers in AI, blockchain, and quantum technologies.
CES Foundry offers unique opportunities, including:
- CES Foundry Stage, where innovators are welcomed for fireside chats and addresses
- CES Discovery Stage, which will host demos, pitch competitions, and Q&A sessions on topics like AI ethics, automation, decentralized finance, quantum, security, and tokenization
“AI is dominating the conversation, and CES Foundry will amplify the incredible energy already surging across CES,” said John T. Kelley, Vice President and CES Show Director, CTA. “This is where early-stage meets enterprise, and cutting-edge ideas get the visibility—and opportunity for investment.”
CES Foundry will forge the next era of AI, blockchain, and quantum through discussions and networking at the most powerful tech event in the world. Lead the conversation with sponsorship and content opportunities by visiting CES Foundry.
