Pre-CES Presentation Looks at the Winners and Losers of Tech in 2020
Not every company was impacted by the coronavirus in the same way.
The pandemic year of 2020 was a good year for TVs and PCs, as well as surprising products like webcams, monitors and PC headsets, although the news was less positive for headphones and the smartphones.
That’s according to Stephen Baker of the research firm NPD Group, who delivered a presentation Wednesday as part of a virtual media event held ahead of next week’s virtual International CES, and hosted by conference host Techfluence.
In the presentation, titled “Right Place, Right Product, Right Time, The Go-To Consumer Technology Products For the Pandemic,” Baker shared several trends in tech from 2020, and discussed whether they will continue in a post-pandemic world.
