Enter the Norwegian Drone & Defence Market!
What happens when drones leave the laboratory and face darkness, freezing temperatures, rough seas and unreliable positioning?
And how can unwanted drone activity be detected and countered?
Norway offers a unique environment for testing and deploying UAS technologies.
We invite German companies to an exclusive business delegation to Trondheim, focusing on drones, Counter-UAS, autonomous systems, sensor technologies and dual-use solutions.
At the centre of the programme stands the Dark Drones 2027 conference, a specialised event bringing together industry experts, researchers and end users to examine drone operations and detection under demanding conditions.
