CEA Digital Patriots Dinner!

Last night we went to The Consumer Electronics Association’s Digital Patriots Dinner at The National Building Museum.

We snapped the honorees, Revolution CEO Steve Case and Rep. Bob Goodlatte, House Judiciary Committee chair, surrounded by NVTC CEO Bobbie Kilberg and Case Foundation CEO Jean Case.

The annual gala celebrates the achievements of industry and policy leaders who champion innovation in consumer technology, especially in support of a legal and regulatory framework. Here, Consumer Electronics Assn CEO Gary Shapiro with Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe.
