Cities, aviation authorities and large companies will gather in the RAI Amsterdam from Tuesday for a three-day conference on drones to discuss how drones can become better integrated into urban transport. Over 250 industry experts will gather at the event, called Amsterdam Drone Week.
Representatives of various cities and regions, including Amsterdam, Enschede, Stockholm, Madrid and Bavaria, will exchange ideas in the RAI for greater unity in the regulation of unmanned aviation in the city. The conference is organized by the European aviation authority EASA.
Zipline, an American start-up that is developing systems to help drones deliver medicine to difficult-to-reach areas in Ghana and Rwanda, will make an appearance.
