Arlington, Va. — The Eureka Park Marketplace at the 2015 International CES will expand by more than 50 percent compared with last January’s show, said owner and event producer, the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA).
CES will be held Jan. 6-9, 2015, in Las Vegas.
Returning for its fourth year, the Eureka Park Marketplace will highlight entrepreneurs and their home-grown innovations across the consumer technology spectrum, said CEA. The space, located at CES Tech West within the Sands Expo, is expected to span 35,000 net square feet, up 59 percent from the 22,000 net square feet at the 2014 CES.
Along with start-ups in the beginning stages of development, Eureka Park also will host more established, mid-stage start-ups looking to expand their growth. In addition, the University Innovations Marketplace, located within Eureka Park, will showcase developments from some of the country’s leading educational institutions.
Said Karen Chupka, senior VP, International CES and corporate business strategy, CEA: “Innovation is the force that drives our industry and the lifeblood of the International CES, as evidenced by the continued success and exponential growth of the Eureka Park Marketplace. Over the past three years, we’ve witnessed countless start-up success stories at Eureka Park — companies have secured funding, entered partnerships with distributors, and advanced to their first full production cycle. We’re thrilled to bring the Eureka Park Marketplace back to the 2015 CES and can’t wait to witness the next wave of ideas and innovations on display.”
