CES (Consumer Electronics Show), the world's largest consumer electronics and technology fair, is one of the most critical events where Rownd Precision brings its "Manufacturing for Everyone" vision to the global stage. We decided to introduce every new device we launch for the first time at CES fairs. In line with this strategy, CES is not just a platform for us to showcase our products, but a strategic growth platform where we achieve market validation by meeting international investors, customers, and distributors.
CES 2024: First Global Launch and Interactive Experience CES 2024 was Rownd Precision's first major test in the international arena. At this fair, where we took part in the İSTKA (Istanbul Development Agency) pavilion, we introduced our first product, the Rownd Desktop CNC Lathe, to the international market.
One of the most striking moments of the fair was that our visitors in Las Vegas could remotely control our machines in Turkey instantly through the controllers at our booth. The idea of remotely managing an industrial machine with the simplicity of a game console attracted thousands of visitors. This successful launch enabled us to establish valuable global connections for both our commercial and investor discussions.
CES 2025: The Birth of the 5-Axis Desktop CNC Mill CES 2025, which we attended in January 2025, was the event where we took our growth targets and product ecosystem to the next level. We held the prototype launch of our second product, the Desktop 5-Axis CNC Mill, which will revolutionize the industry, in Las Vegas. The interest shown by visitors in this new industrial-standard technology exceeded our expectations; 80% of the customer interest (leads) we collected during the fair were directly directed to the 5-axis mill prototype.
This intense interest quickly translated into commercial success. Immediately after the fair, we made 4 new product sales and initiated a significant collaboration process with the Belgian-based company Distribold for European and US distributorships. We also had the opportunity to lay the foundations for strong business partnerships with many potential distributors from Europe, Mexico, and South Korea.
Our Future Vision: CES 2027 and Beyond Our strategy of launching the prototype of every new device in our product roadmap at CES and then starting Kickstarter campaigns will continue in the coming years.
As Rownd Precision, we are confidently progressing towards our goal of becoming the undisputed leader in the industry by releasing at least one new desktop manufacturing device every year, with the strong momentum we gain from CES events.
