Geek Beat, Tom’s Guide, and Mobile Nations Join Forces for #CESlive 2015
Premier Technology Publications Team Up to Produce Live Programming at the 2015 International Consumer Electronics Show
NEW YORK, NY–(Marketwired – Oct 21, 2014) – Geek Beat, Tom’s Guide, and Mobile Nations today announced their partnership to bring #CESlive 2015 to consumer tech enthusiasts across the globe.
Now in its second year, #CESlive 2015 is a live show broadcasted directly from the south hall of the 2015 International CES in Las Vegas, NV, (January 6-9, 2015). Its unique programming will feature in-depth interviews and insight from the foremost names in consumer technology about the latest products, news, and trends from the event. The show will feature more than 80 interviews and numerous podcasts — all showcasing multiple products, companies, and special guests — and will be hosted by a roster of technology experts that includes Cali Lewis and John Pozadzides, hosts of Geek Beat, Mark Spoonauer, Editor-in-Chief of Tom’s Guide and Laptop Mag, and Rene Ritchie, Editor-in-Chief of iMore.
A massive hit during last year’s CES — in which the live coverage garnered nearly 7 million unique visitors, 10.5 million page views, and more than 2 million video views, with exclusive interviews from leading brands such as General Motors, Samsung, LG, FitBit and more — #CESlive is the preeminent opportunity for brands and advertisers to reach in-market tech consumers from around the world, both at the event and beyond.
