LAS VEGAS, December 25, 2025 — The Consumer Technology Association (CTA) has confirmed that Dr. Lisa Su, Chair and Chief Executive Officer of AMD, will deliver a keynote address at CES 2026, as the global technology showcase prepares to open registration for its 2026 edition.

Dr. Su will return to the CES keynote stage to outline how artificial intelligence is reshaping industries and everyday life, and to present AMD’s vision for future AI solutions spanning cloud, enterprise, edge and end-user devices. Her address is expected to focus on how high-performance and adaptive computing architectures are enabling the next phase of AI-driven innovation.

Gary Shapiro, Chief Executive Officer and Vice Chair of the Consumer Technology Association, said CES continues to bring together technology leaders shaping the future of the industry. He described Dr. Su as a technology leader who has guided AMD’s transformation into a global force in high-performance computing.

During the keynote, Dr. Su is expected to discuss how AMD’s portfolio — including CPUs, GPUs, adaptive computing platforms and AI software — is being deployed to address complex challenges across data centres, AI-enabled personal computers, gaming and emerging edge applications. AMD’s EPYC processors and Instinct accelerators have become central to data-centre and AI workloads, while Ryzen processors and Radeon graphics continue to underpin advances in consumer and professional computing.

Reflecting on the role of CES as a global stage, Dr. Su said the pace of technological change across industries makes the event a key forum for presenting breakthrough solutions. She noted that AMD’s focus remains on delivering computing power and AI capabilities that can scale from the world’s largest supercomputers to compact edge devices.
