Call for Speakers – Deadline February 26, 2021

Commercial UAV Expo America, presented by Commercial UAV News, is the leading international trade fair and conference focusing on the integration and operation of commercial UAS. The sixth annual event will take place September 7-9, 2021 at the Mirage Las Vegas. 

In a market changing as rapidly as UAS, education is critical. At Commercial UAV Expo Americas, we carefully develop conference topics in cooperation with an Advisory Board of esteemed professionals. We thoroughly vet prospective speakers to ensure our speakers are the best in their topic area. Our goal: to provide outstanding, actionable information on the critical issues industrial users face integrating or operating UAS and to provide a glimpse at what’s coming next for UAS.

Can you deliver on these objectives?
