Climbing through the ranks at CTA and overseeing the one of the top trade shows in the U.S., Consumer Electronics Show (CES), Chupka now is responsible for cultivating strategic relationships, identifying business opportunities and representing the organization in industry forums.

"CES’ success is credited to the many dedicated team members I’ve had the chance to work with to make the show the most influential tech event in the world," Chupka said. "I’m incredibly humbled to be accepting this award and do so on behalf of the entire CES family. It is truly an honor to share this space with so many talented leaders throughout the industry. Thank you for your advice and encouragement over the years. We can’t wait to get back to Vegas in January 2023—there is nothing more valuable than being face-to-face!"
