During an interview with SAE Media Group, Group Captain Gary Darby expressed, “I’ve been to several SAE Media Group's C-UAS Conferences over the past 2 years and developed a brilliant network of industry, academic and military colleagues, most of whom I now consider friends. It is these relationships on the personal level that will be key moving forward as we fight the C-UAS battle. Quite honestly, I couldn’t have done that, established my network, without this conference.”

The UK MoD signed a £56 million contract to enhance Ukraine's air defence capabilities through counter-UAS measures last year.

This highlighted these solutions as a top priority for leading militaries to ensure the safety and security of personnel and equipment in modern conflicts.

Attendees will also receive exclusive insights from Nataliia Kushnerska, Chief Operating Officer of Ukraine's Brave1, on how they are leveraging tech clusters to rapidly establish a C-UAS advantage at a time of conflict.
Designed to safeguard critical national infrastructure domestically and protect deployed personnel overseas, this event serves as a catalyst for progress in the C-UAS sector.
