CES will present us with a tsunami of products, but Steve Koenig, vice president of research at the Consumer Technology Association, the group that puts on the big tech trade show in Las Vegas, helped sort it out by pointing out key trends to watch.

Among the things he foresees: Enterprise technology will drive innovation forward and help pull us out of a recession.

Koenig foresees metaverse as a service and the metaverse of things. It’s the ultimate way to combine buzzwords together.
