The International CES is looking for conference speakers for CES2008 in Las Vegas, Jan. 7-10, 2008.
CES, which bills itself as the world’s largest consumer technology trade show, will feature more than 175 sessions and expects more than 140,000 attendees from over 140 countries at next year’s event.
