For the 13th consecutive year, the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes Region is leading an exceptional delegation of local companies to CES — the world’s flagship event for innovation — in partnership with Minalogic and the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes Entreprises Agency. This initiative is supported by a strategic and operational support program designed to maximize impact, visibility, and business opportunities for the organizations representing the region at this global event.
CES: The Global Showcase for Tomorrow’s Technologies and a Growth Platform for Regional Companies
A global innovation hub, CES gathers more than 140,000 visitors and 4,500 exhibitors, including 1,400 startups from 160 countries each year. For companies from the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, it represents a unique opportunity to accelerate growth, reach new markets, engage with key industry partners, and anticipate the technology trends shaping the future.
A Regional Delegation at the Cutting Edge of Innovation
Since 2015, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes has stood out for the quality and diversity of the innovations showcased. In 2026, 35 startups will present their solutions at the regional pavilion, covering major sectors such as next-generation textiles, sustainable mobility, health technologies, next-gen construction and infrastructure, embedded systems, and low-carbon solutions.
This participation is supported by a complete end-to-end program — preparation, on-site support, and post-event follow-up — coordinated by the Region with support from Minalogic to maximize technological and economic outcomes.
In parallel, a visitor program managed by the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes Entreprises Agency will allow 17 companies, 3 universities, and other economic stakeholders to immerse themselves in the CES ecosystem to identify partners and prepare a potential future presence as exhibitors.
