What I value the most about this conference is the focus on drone technology for business purposes. This isn’t about the consumer, its about real world use-cases businesses are leveraging today. Attendees won’t just see raw technology, but where it can have a meaningful impact on their businesses.

The Communications Infrastructure Contractors Association is an industry leader in commercial drones. The Association’s UAS Committee continues to focus on providing the education and training resources that are needed to continue to scale operations in our dynamic industry. I am excited to represent NATE and the wireless infrastructure community as the Commercial UAV Expo reconvenes as an in-person conference this September in Las Vegas.

The past year has demonstrated how technology can be used to respond to global disruptions, and it has highlighted the potential roles that emerging aviation technologies can play in protecting health and safety and improving overall quality of life. This is an exciting and important time for the industry to reconvene and focus on the future of technology.

In a year that saw many sectors struggle due to lockdowns, quarantines, and economic hardships, the commercial UAV industry vigorously demonstrated its resilience and adaptability. From groundbreaking UAS deliveries to advanced emergency response applications, the public has come to not only accept but appreciate the benefits drones are uniquely capable of providing. Now the time has come for the boldest and brightest minds in the industry to reunite in person at the Commercial UAV Expo to celebrate and facilitate the continued expansion of this game-changing technology.

Commercial UAV Expo is the capstone event in the commercial drone industry. This is the room where it happens–the place where key policy makers offer insights on the future of regulations, business leaders share the secrets of their success, and industry players at all levels can connect in ways that advance their businesses and the industry as a whole. It’s an event you can’t afford to miss.

Commercial UAV Expo has firmly established its reputation as the leading annual drone event dedicated exclusively to help enterprises conduct business more efficiently using unmanned aviation technology. We are looking forward to reuniting first responders using Drones for Good™ as we reconvene the DRONERESPONDERS Public Safety UAS Summit in Las Vegas this September.

By bringing together the best experts and specialists in one place, the event will also allow us to highlight the benefits, the best uses of drones, bridge the gaps and discover new services. The Golden Age of drones is finally coming.
