Consumer Electronics Hall of Fame
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Consumer Electronics Hall of Fame, founded by the Consumer Electronics Association, CEA, honors the leaders whose creativity, persistence, determination and sheer personal charisma helped to shape an industry and made the consumer electronics marketplace what it is today. The Consumer Electronics Hall of Fame inductees have made a significant contribution to the world, and without these inductees, our lives would not be the same.
The Consumer Electronics Association announced the first 50 inductees into its Consumer Electronics Hall of Fame at the 2000 International Consumer Electronics Show. In the 2000 class of inductees we find among others Ray Dolby, Thomas Alva Edison, Edwin Armstrong, Masaru Ibuka, etc. Each year another world-class group of inventors, engineers, business leaders, retailers and journalists are inducted into the Consumer Electronics Hall of Fame.
