If you’ve missed personal technology events in 2020 and 2021, here’s some good news: It looks promising that in 2022, many conferences will return to near-normal condition.
2020 was a wash for many technology conferences, and events in 2021 were largely online as the COVID-19 pandemic continues to wreak havoc on schedules around the world. As 2022 approaches, many events that have been canceled or only online are planning a big personal comeback, including CES.
It’s still early, so expect much of this list to be updated in the coming months as events are added, removed or rescheduled. It is also important to note that many of these events are not yet open for registration. And if a month is not on the list, it is not missing – there are simply no events scheduled for this period.
With any luck, we will return to face-to-face trade fairs, professional seminars and industry meetings in less than a year.
