CES 2020 is slated to showcase transformative tech and innovations in digital health, smart cities, AI, and other marketplaces from January 7th to January 10th, 2020. Drawing visionaries and major innovators from every field, more than 1,100 people are expected to share insights and speak at the show that draws close to 25,000 attendees. Among them will be keynotes from Quibi Founder and Chairman of the Board Jeffrey Katzenberg, and CEO Meg Whitman.
Bringing over 40 years of experience as a leader in the entertainment industry, Katzenberg also co-founded and serves as a managing partner for WndrCo, co-founded DreamWorks SKG, and became a chairman of the Walt Disney Studios. With his expertise, DreamWorks Animation SKG was sold to Comcast for 3.8 billion in 2016.
Unlike Katzenberg, this isn’t Whitman’s first time speaking at CES. Serving as their key speaker during CES 2002, she’s served as the CEO of the Hewlett Packard Enterprise, the President and CEO of eBay Inc., overseeing their growth to $8 billion in annual revenue and more than 15,000 employees. She’s also held executive positions at The Walt Disney Company, Hasbro Inc., and Bain & Company.
“It is an honor to host Meg and Jeffrey, both titans in the technology and entertainment industry, who have joined forces to revolutionize the mobile subscription video streaming industry with the upcoming launch of Quibi,” said CTA president and CEO Gary Shapiro. “Meg and Jeffrey are committed to producing content for their audience that will transform what’s possible in short-form video programming.”
