Women in tech bring greater innovation

Gina Glantz’s column, “Women need to be onstage at Consumer Electronics Show,” ignores the women who participate in CES.

Diversity and inclusion are core principles for us. IBM’s Ginni Rometty, GM’s Mary Barra and Yahoo’s Marissa Mayer are among the tech leaders to keynote in past years. We spotlight diverse voices, ideas and opinions across all of our programs. CES engages women in multiple speaking roles. We just finalized plans for industry experts, including A&E’s Nancy Dubuc, PepsiCo’s Kristin Patrick and MediaLink’s Wenda Harris Millard, to take the keynote stage at CES 2018.

CES 2017 featured over 275 female speakers. A range of views and experiences promote greater creativity and, in turn, innovation.
