Are you interested in bringing a group from your country to the International CES? As a delegation leader, you will help your clients maximize the value of their trip to the International CES by helping them plan what to see and who to meet at the show, while arranging the logistics of travel. CEA has a formal delegation program in place that provides benefits for both delegation leaders and members.

Free show registration is among the list of  benefits for delegation program participants. If you join a delegation and register for CES after September 30, the $100 registration fee will be waived.

U.S. Department of Commerce International Buyer Program

The International CES is a proud participant of the U.S. Department of Commerce’s International Buyer Program (IBP). Through the U.S. Commercial Service’s network of offices in U.S. Embassies and Consulates worldwide, the IBP recruits pre-screened foreign buyer delegations and brings them to selected tradeshows in the United States, connecting U.S. companies with international buyers.   Commercial service trade specialists located in your local embassy or consulate can assist you with show registration, help you locate the products you are looking to purchase at the show and assist in setting up meetings with you and U.S. businesses. The International CES proudly participates in the International Buyer Program (IBP), sponsored by the Commercial Service of the U.S. Department of Commerce. As part of the IBP, many foreign commercial specialists lead delegations to CES. Locate the Commercial Service office in your country.
