As Razer’s new three monitor laptop, “Project Valerie”, made headlines at the CES 2017 show, the company’s CEO Min-Liang Tan revealed on Facebook that two of their prototypes were stolen.
Tan explained on Facebook, “I’ve just been informed that two of our prototypes were stolen from our booth at CES today.”
Tan added, “We have filed the necessary reports and are currently working with the show management as well as law enforcement to address this issue.”
Razer’s CEO went on by saying their company has worked hard to build their products and they take pride in creating new and innovative machines. However, Razer takes “industrial espionage” very seriously.
Tan argued, “it is cheating, and cheating doesn’t sit well with us. Penalties for such crimes are grievous and anyone who would do this clearly isn’t very smart.”
