Remotely Piloted and Autonomous Aircraft Systems (RPAAS) are transforming industries, from military operations to vital public services and innovative commercial ventures. Think of reduced acquisition, operating, training, and through-life support costs, compared to crewed aircraft and ground and maritime alternatives.

But what are the unique challenges that integrating RPAAS into civilian airspace presents? How can we navigate the evolving regulatory and air traffic management (ATM) environments and ensure economic viability, crucial for widespread adoption?

In the 2025 RPAAS Conference, our experts discuss and explain the obstacles currently hindering progress, exploring practical solutions to overcome them and pave the way for broader integration of drone technology, including:

• How can we achieve cost-effective RPAAS operations without compromising safety, ensuring these safe and effective RPAAS operations remain economically viable for all stakeholders?
• Examine the crucial question of airspace management and service provision and who bears the financial responsibility within the Air Traffic Management (ATM) framework.
• Insights into the market outlook, highlighting key issues and barriers and outlining the essential initiatives required to unlock the full potential of drone operations.
• Future trends and market outlook: Exploring emerging technologies and market trends shaping the future of RPAAS
• How can we assess the potential economic and societal benefits of RPAAS and eVTOL, and what is their transformative impact on various sectors and the broader community?

Join us for this essential conference, where we will explore the economic and socio-economic landscape of RPAAS in government and commercial sectors as well as explore the societal benefits and impacts of RPAAS, offering a comprehensive look at the future of this transformative technology.
