Will what happened at CES, stay at CES?

Hello and welcome back to Equity, a podcast about the business of startups, where we unpack the numbers and nuance behind the headlines.

This is our Wednesday show, where we niche down to a single topic, think about a question and unpack the rest. This week, Natasha chatted with Haje Kamps and Brian Heater about CES which took place last week over in the ever-exciting Las Vegas area. All of toptechtrends.com/tag/ces/”>our fantastic CES coverage can be found on the site, but for the purposes of today’s show, we tried to keep it analytical, chatty and, at times, even a bit robotic. (You’ll see what I mean).

Here’s what we got into:

• Post-CES feelings and why the show has stayed relevant after all these years
• toptechtrends.com/2022/12/29/ces-2023-preview-what-to-expect/”>How expectations of the show compared to the reality, robot pillows and all
• Who did and didn’t show up
• Brian’s toptechtrends.com/2023/01/05/consumer-robotics-show-2/”>new suggestion for what the conference should be called 
• The energy of innovation on the showroom floor, fromtoptechtrends.com/2023/01/09/how-companies-at-ces-are-taking-on-climate-change-or-pretending-to/”> sustainability to big swings to over-engineered blenders
• toptechtrends.com/2023/01/07/batteries-batteries-everywhere/”>Batteries! 
• And finally, how the downturn and COVID-19 may have impacted the way startups are pitching themselves to the public. Selection bias, it’s a thing!
