In his new role, Moon will lead the sales team for CTA as well as CES. Moreover, he will drive growth as well as industry engagement for the world’s largest tech event.

“Given his understanding of the tech sector and boundless enthusiasm, Brian is a great fit for this position,” added Karen Chupka, executive vice president, CES. “CES is a global show; a third of our attendees come from countries other than the U.S. Brian has extensive international sales experience and his knowledge will be especially valuable.”
