Past event: UAS Commercialization Industry Conference 2014

Preparing for the Future Requirements of UAS Commercial Integration in the National Airspace

Can UAS commercialization completely revolutionize your standard operating procedures?

UAS Commercialization Industry Conference
(UASCIC) will bring together a group of early adopters, government officials, industry partners and expert academia to discuss their current trials, future requirements, extensive capabilities, and forthcoming plans to leverage Unmanned Aerial Systems in commercial markets.

Join us as we explore the 10+ industries that are testing and evaluating UAS integration to improve efficiencies, reduce cost, and drive profits as hundreds of standard operating procedures approach the brink of extinction. View the agenda to learn more about the speakers and sessions.


Top Reasons Why This Conference is a "Must Attend"

You will learn how to...
  • Understand the value UAS will add to your organization
  • Determine and set the requirements for UAS integration in your industry
  • Build an internal business case to prove that UAS will allow your company to do something that it couldn't do previously
  • Prepare for the upcoming FAA regulations and ensure you are ready to implement at first opportunity
  • Test and evaluate the ground control system, maintenance tools, hardware, software and human interaction required to operate by collaborating with one of the six different test sites
  • Avoid the mistakes and pitfalls by hearing from those that have already been approved through Section 333 of the FAA Modernization and Reform Act
  • Understand the recommendations made by the test sites to help facilitate the upcoming sUAS regulations
  • Manage the political landscape of your organization to relieve the concern that UAS will replace the jobs of loyal workers and instead, transition this as an opportunity for growth
  • Identify the operator that is right for your implementation plan
  • Develop the partnerships required to invest financially in UAS
  • Build safety guidelines to manage and quantify the risk moving forward
