The Secretary of Commerce Drops by Our CES Booth – And Is Proud of the Results

International CES 2014 has come and gone this week. You may have heard of it from our blog, Facebook page, or the news. In addition to the curved OLED TVs, 3D printing machines, and personal health monitoring, portable power was a hot topic at this year’s show. We did, after all, get honored by the CES Innovation Awards in that category. We had visitors from all sorts of industries dropping by our booth to see the one-of-a-kind SunSocket Solar Generator; visitors like U.S. Secretary of Commerce Penny Pritzker.

Secretary Pritzker was on a mission to visit the small handful of companies attending the show that met certain requirements. She wanted to show support for American brands based in a single state that manufactured domestically and exported internationally. AspectSolar was one the few honored companies (that’s two times we’d been honored so far at CES). For fifteen minutes, Secretary Pritzker and our CEO, Esmond Goei, chatted about where the company’s been and where we’re going. Needless to say, the future looks bright with her blessing.

We had a few other interesting visits and we expect to have a few interesting follow-up meetings. International CES 2014 was a productive week for us! Expect to see AspectSolar products available through more retailers and online distributors this year. That’s all we can say for now.


Thanks, Las Vegas, for an amazing journey! Luckily, news from International CES is the one thing that happens in Vegas and doesn’t stay there. You’ll be seeing a lot more of us soon. We promise to bring even more exciting innovation to next year’s show.
