With a history of uniting more than 500 of the best UAV minds in the industry into a single venue, The UAS Summit & Expo will bring together:

Attendees of the event will receive focused, technical presentations and special events designed to describe the latest technology offerings, software packages, business models and regulatory updates on the UAS industry. Exhibiting companies will be showcasing the latest technologies, new product launches and valuable industry services.

“The 2017 UAS Summit, again will demonstrate the outstanding work completed by North Dakota’s leadership to establish the state as a leader in the UAS industry,” says Dr. Delore Zimmerman, executive director at the Red River Valley Research Corridor. “Similar to last year, the companies who will be represented at the Summit are quickly becoming recognized as the first significantly successful players in the commercialization of the UAS industry.”
