CES is where the consumer technology industry comes together to discover new products, explore emerging technologies, build partnerships, and shape the trends that will define the year ahead. For manufacturers and technology brands, it represents one of the most important opportunities of the year to connect directly with media, influencers, retailers, distributors, partners, and industry leaders who help shape awareness and purchasing decisions.

In a crowded, fast-moving environment where thousands of products compete for attention, success at CES is about more than booth traffic or product demonstrations. The brands that make the greatest impact arrive with a clear story, compelling news, meaningful opportunities to engage with media and industry audiences, and a strategy designed to build visibility before, during, and after the show.

Caster has decades of experience working across the smart home, consumer technology, AV, IoT, security, and connected device industries, with extensive experience supporting brands around CES. We help technology companies plan and execute PR and marketing programs for CES and Pepcom 2027, including pre-show media outreach, product launches, executive visibility, media briefings, awards strategy, press events, thought leadership, content amplification, and post-show follow-up designed to turn CES momentum into year-round brand visibility.

Why Brands Need a Strategic Communications Partner for CES

The most valuable opportunities take shape before the show, from securing media meetings to developing award submissions and shaping launch messaging. With the right CES PR strategy, brands can build awareness before the show, maximize visibility during CES, and extend the impact long after the event ends.

Editors, analysts, podcasters, influencers, and video teams are all covering the show differently. Brands need a coordinated media strategy to break through the noise and a partner to coordinate all the moving pieces.

Build Digital Discoverability

Caster also helps brands improve visibility across both traditional search and AI-driven discovery platforms through media coverage, structured website content, thought leadership, and owned content strategy. Recent industry analysis increasingly shows that earned editorial coverage carries more influence in AI-generated answers than syndicated press releases alone.
