Created in 1967, the CES (Consumer Electronics Show) in Las Vegas is the largest trade show dedicated to technological innovation and a great showcase for start-ups, VSEs and SMEs. For the ninth time, the Occitanie Region will be represented there: its economic development agency, AD’OCC, will accompany 26 regional digital companies from January 5 to 8 for the 2023 edition. Four of them have received a “CES Innovation Award 2023”: A Capela, Odaptos, I-Percut and AllPRiv.

More than 2,400 exhibitors from 164 countries will take part in this event, which is held every year in early January in Las Vegas. 100,000 visitors are expected to attend. Carole Delga, President of the Occitanie / Pyrenees-Mediterranean Region will head the regional delegation.

She states:

“The Occitanie Region is once again coming in force at the CES in Las Vegas 2023 with 26 companies participating in the largest international tech event under the Occitanie banner. This year, I wanted to be by their side, in order to promote the exceptional ecosystem that we have in Occitania and to highlight the potential of our companies and their innovations. The stakes are multiple: to help our companies gain visibility and accelerate their international development, but also to convince new partners and companies to come and settle in Occitanie. The CES is also an opportunity to discover and anticipate industrial and technological changes, in order to create the jobs of tomorrow in startups, VSEs and SMEs in our region.

An accompaniment of the agency AD’OCC

This year, the AD’OCC agency and the Occitania Region are supporting 13 companies that will exhibit under the Occitan pavilion in the heart of the France Pavilion, in the EUREKA PARK area dedicated to startups and disruptive innovations, three under other pavilions and 10 others that have come as “visitors”.

To optimize their participation and help them stand out, the agency offered 35 hours of collective and personalized coaching to each of the 26 regional companies participating in the CES.

This coaching program and the support of the Occitania Region House in New York are undeniable assets for them to convince and seduce major accounts, to break into the French and international market, and to effectively approach this extraordinary event.

The companies A Capela, Odaptos, I-Percut and AllPRiv received a “CES Innovation Award”, which recognizes innovative solutions in 28 different categories. The jury, composed of entrepreneurs, journalists, and influencers, awards 3 companies per category and offers increased visibility to the winners.
