I've got several acquaintances who go to the CES but I never realized it was hard to go there.

I don't live in the U.S. so could someone explain at a glance so we better understand the article what exactly you need to do to be able to go there?

You need to have your own company and get a booth or you can just go check all the booths?

1. The biggest hurdle is to get a visa to get to the US. Yes it is a big deal these days. Especially for people going from India. In the article if you noticed, I could not get a visa. SO I had to get everything done remotely, which was a challenge. 2. As a startup it is not possible to get a booth. There are costs involved and money is better spent elsewhere. Instead of getting a booth, I convinced another booth owner to let me use his booth the showcase our product.
