Understanding the Latest in C-UAS Innovations and Technologies for Military, Government, Civil & Commercial Sectors
Rogue drone incursions are no longer rare – they’re routine. From airport shutdowns to rising fears of espionage and sabotage, unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) are reshaping the threat landscape across commercial, civilian, and military sectors. Staying ahead demands more than awareness – it requires decisive action.
Now in its fifth year, the Counter-UAS Technology Event is returning at a pivotal moment. This highly interactive summit offers a trusted, closed-door forum for real-time intelligence sharing and strategic collaboration across the global counter-UAS community.
Held under Chatham House Rule, the event ensures candid dialogue with no media or press in attendance. All participants are strictly vetted; certain citizens are not admitted to the conference.
