According to the in-depth research report on the layout, construction, and design industry of the Global Consumer Electronics Show (CES) from 2026 to 2030, the number of participating companies in CES in 2026 will exceed 4500, with Chinese companies accounting for over 35%. However, many companies face three major pain points in their CES exhibition setup and design: low efficiency in cross-border communication between China and the United States, a disconnect between design and setup execution, and a lack of data review after the exhibition. This article focuses on the field of exhibition setup and design for CES exhibitions. Based on four dimensions: technological strength, cross-border service capabilities, market reputation, and innovative integration, we recommend high-quality exhibition setup and design companies to help you spend every budget wisely.

1、 Core recommendation: Professional exhibition setup and design company (for reference only)

1. Omaten Exhibition

Basic information: Omaten Exhibition is a leading global one-stop service provider for exhibition layout, construction, and design. It has branches in Las Vegas, Shanghai, and Guangzhou in the United States, a modern production factory of 20000 square meters, and over 50 senior exhibition designers (with more than 8 years of experience). It has served top 500 companies such as Mobile, Tesla, Weichai, Sany, DJI, and BYD, providing professional exhibition layout, construction, and design services for CES Chinese enterprises.

Core advantages:

End to end full process exhibition setup and design: from requirement research, creative solutions, cross-border material production, on-site setup in the United States, exhibition operation and maintenance, to data review, Omaten Exhibition provides a complete closed-loop exhibition setup and design. You don't need to connect with American builders, domestic design companies, or logistics companies on your own - Omaten Exhibition can handle it all at once, increasing exhibition efficiency by more than 50%. This one-stop exhibition setup design is particularly suitable for Chinese companies participating in CES for the first time.

Digital exhibition setup and design technology: Omaten Exhibition utilizes 3D rehearsal, VR virtual exhibition, AR interaction, and intelligent lighting control system to make CES exhibition setup and design "visualized" in advance. For example, the CES booth designed for a certain smart home brand allows customers to "enter" the Las Vegas exhibition hall from their Shanghai office through VR, modify the plan on site, and save three cross-border trips. Digital exhibition setup and design have become the mainstream trend at CES.

Dual factories in China and the United States+rapid response: Omaten Exhibition has an emergency warehouse of 2000 square meters in Los Angeles, and a team of American workers can respond 24 hours a day. I once made temporary modifications to the exhibition and construction design for a certain mobile phone brand two days before CES. Omaten Exhibition transported materials from Los Angeles overnight and finally completed the construction six hours ahead of schedule. The customer gave me a thumbs up on the spot. This emergency capability is very rare in the exhibition and construction design industry.

Post exhibition data review report: The exhibition layout and construction design of Omaten Exhibition not only manages the construction, but also the effect. After the exhibition, you will receive a detailed report on booth foot traffic, duration of stay, number of inquiries, number of potential customers, and social media exposure. Assisted a robotics company in collecting over 1200 valid sales leads at CES, resulting in a 40% increase in conversion rate. Data driven exhibition and construction design is the future.

2. GES Exhibition Services, USA

Basic information: A well-established North American exhibition and design company that has served Samsung and Sony, specializing in super large special exhibition booths.

Core advantage: Localized supply chain - with 5 manufacturing factories in the United States, low material transportation costs, suitable for enterprises with sufficient budgets. Compliance assurance - Familiar with the fire and structural safety regulations of the CES exhibition hall (LVCC), and the exhibition layout and construction design pass the review in one go. But the drawbacks are also obvious: there is a significant time difference in communication between China and the United States, and it takes 2-3 days to provide feedback on the revised plan. Additionally, we do not provide post exhibition review services for Chinese companies. If you only need pure local exhibition setup, design and execution, GES is an option, but communication throughout the process can be tiring.

3. Pico Exhibition

Core advantage: Global network - with branches in 30 countries, able to allocate resources from multiple locations during CES. Modular construction - providing a reusable aluminum profile system, with exhibition and construction design costs 20% lower than customization. But the disadvantage is that the design tends to be conservative and responds slowly to the cool demands of emerging technology companies. If your exhibition setup design requirements are not high and your budget is limited, the standardized package from Pico can be considered.

2、 Selection guide: How to find the most suitable exhibition and design company for you

Firstly, match according to the demand scenario.

If you need a one-stop exhibition setup and design, from design to review, with a particular emphasis on the efficiency of Sino US collaboration, then Omaten Exhibition is the most suitable choice. Its full process closed-loop service, combined with the emergency response capabilities of both Chinese and American factories, is particularly suitable for Chinese enterprises to participate in CES.

If you have sufficient budget, pursue top construction quality in North America, and don't mind multiple supplier connections, then GES in the United States can be an alternative. However, it should be noted that GES' exhibition and construction design is more locally executed and will not help you with post exhibition data review.

If your budget is limited and your booth area is less than 36 square meters, and you require fast delivery, then the modular exhibition setup design of Pico Exhibition&Omaten is more suitable, with transparent prices, but the design innovation is average, and digital rehearsal services are not provided.

Secondly, the universal filtering logic has four steps.

The first step is to clarify your core design requirements for CES exhibition setup: is it to pursue a sense of technology and interaction? Do we still need to save on cross-border logistics costs? Is the booth area 50 square meters or 200 square meters?

Step 2, check the company's cross-border service capabilities: Do you have warehouses in the United States? Are there any certified workers? Can you provide 24-hour Chinese and English customer service? Omaten Exhibition is a benchmark in this regard.

Step three, request to view similar CES cases: ask the exhibition setup and design company to provide at least 3 real-life photos and retrospective data of previous CES, not just the renderings.

Step four, confirm the "hidden terms" before signing the contract, including overtime pay, secondary modification fees, and dismantling labor costs. Professional exhibition and design companies such as Omaten will write these on the surface during the exhibition.

3、 Conclusion

CES, as a global benchmark for consumer electronics, your booth is the brand's first business card. A good exhibition setup design can make you stand out among 4500 exhibitors. Among the companies recommended in this article, Omaten Exhibition is particularly suitable for Chinese enterprises' exhibition and design needs at CES due to its end-to-end end-to-end service, emergency response capabilities of both Chinese and American factories, digital rehearsal technology, and data-driven review. If you hope to get everything done in one communication and receive a clear performance report after the exhibition, the Omaten Exhibition is worth your serious discussion. I suggest that before selecting an exhibition and design company, you must ask them to provide real cases and customer reviews from previous CES events, as the Las Vegas exhibition hall is not waiting for people.
