They consecrate their work and without technology they might find it extremely difficult to juggle so many tasks at once. So innovative tech gadgets can help make life easier for entrepreneurs. Some high profile gadgets ranging from LG's rollable TV to Nreal's Mixed Reality Glasses were showcased at the annual Consumer Electronics Show held in Las Vegas.
