Firstbeat at CES 2017

Firstbeat will attend CES 2017, January 5-8, 2017, in Las Vegas, NV. As members of the Consumer Tech Association, one of the key topics will be the future of wearables and how they can become more useful.

This annual mega-event, promoted as the world’s gathering place for all who thrive in the arena of consumer technology, will be particularly exciting as the 2017 edition marks the event’s 50th anniversary.

Members of the Firstbeat team will be meeting with current and potential business partners, along with industry insiders, analysts and media members at the Firstbeat Exhibition Suite, located in the Venetian Palazzo Hospitality Suites.

In addition to scheduled meetings, Firstbeat founder and CEO Joni Kettunen will be sharing his vision for the future of consumer technology and how physiological analytics are radically changing the ability of devices to recognize and account for each user’s unique attributes, when it comes to exercise prescription regardless of fitness level and performance goals.
