SmartCard, the Frisco-based premium networking technology company behind the titanium NFC business card, announced that its executive team attended CES 2026 in Las Vegas, Nevada, the world's largest and most influential consumer technology trade show, to evaluate emerging hardware capabilities and explore strategic partnerships that will shape the next generation of SmartCard products.
The team spent time on the floor across several of the show's most forward-looking categories, with particular focus on advances in battery technology, precision machining, and nanotechnology. The areas represent key infrastructure underlying SmartCard's hardware roadmap as the company evaluates what becomes possible — and what becomes standard — in premium physical products over the next several years.
"CES isn't a place you go to see what exists," said Jacob McKanry, Founder of SmartCard. "It's a place you go to see what's coming. We were there to make sure SmartCard is already building toward it."
The trip produced several deals currently in negotiation, details of which will be announced at a later date. SmartCard declined to comment further on the specifics of those discussions.
