Counter UAS Technology Europe Conference 2025

Developing Effective C-UAS Capabilities to Protect European Skies from Hostile UAS

April 1-3, 2025 - London, United Kingdom

We are delighted to announce the third annual Counter UAS Technology Europe Conference, taking place in London on 1-3 April 2025.

With the growing proliferation of small drones and UAS technology, European armed forces and security agencies seeking to protect critical national infrastructure at home and also forward deployed personnel operating abroad. The European Counter UAS market is constantly growing with new programmes and projects announced. There has therefore never been a more important time for European C-UAS stakeholders to meet and network at Counter UAS Technology Europe 2025.

Counter UAS Technology Europe 2025 will showcase the very latest technology in the market to ensure that European personnel, equipment and infrastructure are protected from the proliferation of drones.

Speakers will feature from leading European C-UAS Programme Managers, wider international defence organisations and the top industry providers.
