What is CES 2026?
Held in Las Vegas, the city transforms into a true innovation ecosystem for several days, showcasing global launches, future-focused prototypes, breakthrough concepts, and real-world solutions. CES is the world’s most influential event dedicated to technology, innovation, and applied design.
It brings together companies, design studios, startups, institutions, and thought leaders who are redefining the relationship between people, technology, and the products of the future.
Design and connected technology
Julius Tec, Istobal’s Vacuum Cleaner, and the System One Display are three clear examples of how strategic industrial design and applied technology are transforming key sectors such as mobility, consumer electronics, and intelligent systems.
From advanced mobility solutions focused on efficiency and safety, to IoT-connected equipment enhancing user experiences in high-usage environments, and smart interfaces that optimize human-machine communication, these projects reflect a shared vision: to create innovative, sustainable, and human-centered products.
This approach is perfectly aligned with the major trends shaping both the present and future of global events like CES, where design, technology, and user experience converge.
“CES isn’t just about technology: it’s about how people interact with it. Our work is precisely focused on that intersection between innovation, design, and the human experience.´´´
