The CES-2023 consumer-technology expo in Las Vegas runs from January 5-8.

Russian companies have been banned from participating in the CES-2023 consumer-technology expo in Las Vegas, organizers said on January 4. "We did not welcome them this year, given the political situation," said Gary Shapiro, head of the Consumer Technology Association, which organizes the event. "We just didn’t feel it was appropriate." Shapiro said that about a dozen Ukrainian tech firms were expected to display at the show, which runs from January 5-8.
