Unmanned Cargo Aircraft changes the logistics value chain.
Unmanned Cargo Aircraft (UCA) or drone delivery offers the potential to transport loads of 1 kg to 10 tons or more over both short (last mile, Urban Air Mobility) and long distances, either on routes that are unfeasible / uneconomical for other modes of transport or that offer new business opportunities. During the conference, internationally renowned speakers will introduce UCA development projects and potential applications.
Scope: The Unmanned Cargo Aircraft Conference brings manufacturers, logistic industry, operators, knowledge institutes, consultants, shippers and governmental organizations active in the field of unmanned cargo aircraft / drone delivery together.
Focus topics of the conference are:
- Impact of UCA in the logistics value chain and vice versa
- UCA business models: how to earn money with UCA?
- First mile delivery
- Middle mile delivery
- Last mile delivery
- Urban Air Mobility
- UCA configurations:
- Large / medium size
- Urban space delivery
- Medical supply drones
- Regulatory / Legal issues
- What can UCA contribute to economic and social development?
- Market analysis
- Air Traffic Management (ATM) / UAS Traffic Management (UTM)
- Integration of systems / technologies required for UCA to operate
Who should attend the conference:
Shippers | Carriers | Research institutions | Military | Aircraft manufacturers | System Integrators | ICT suppliers | Logistic service suppliers | Entrepreneurs | Investors | Airports | Governmental Institutions | Cargo Companies | Fulfilment companies | Retailers | E-tailers | Consultants | Air navigation service providers | Civil aviation authorities | Data and software providers | Infrastructure operators | Telecommunication companies
The Conference is a unique opportunity to exchange ideas and network with this pioneering community of unmanned cargo researchers, engineers, business developers and end-users.
