International CES, the consumer technology trade show produced by the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA) in Las Vegas every February, attracts tech leaders from around the world and is the forum where brands like Apple and Microsoft reveal their hottest new products.

Before debuting their first U.S.-based show this fall in Las Vegas, organizers of IMEX, the worldwide exhibition for incentive travel, meetings and events, launched IMEX America TV, a dedicated online video and TV channel to promote the event.
