Civil and Commercial Drone Systems and Counter Drone Technologies Symposium

The global small drone market will reach $10 billion by 2020 according to a forecast by research firm MarketsandMarkets – this reflects a compound annual growth rate of 11.6 percent from 2015.  Drone manufacturers who to date have been feeding the huge defense market are being joined by an ever increasing number of non-defense drone developers who are targeting the potentially enormous markets for civil and commercial capabilities.  The application opportunities seem limitless.  However, to make these applications a reality, a range of specific regulatory, certification, insurance, safety, and management challenges must be met.

This comprehensive symposium will offer attendees a chance to interact & hear from key leading drone experts that are instrumental in making Commercial and Civil Drones in the National Airspace (NAS) advance ahead.  The program agenda offers the latest information on government plans for drone integration in the NAS.  Topics will examine the most promising high-value applications from industrial security and perimeter monitoring, border management, law enforcement, communications, search and rescue, disaster management, surveying, mapping – and beyond.
