Context
Drones offer a wide range of possibilities, particularly as a promising alternative in terms of modal shift. By supporting a safe, secure, and efficient integration in airspace the implementation of the U-space Regulation is considered a key enabler for the emergence of the drone sector. Adopted in 2021, the U-space Regulation became applicable in 2023. The objective of this U-space event is to provide a status update on the implementation of the regulation from a regulatory perspective. Firstly, the event will provide a general overview of the implementation of the U-space Regulation across Europe. Then, lessons learned from three countries will be presented. Finally, you will be invited to engage in insightful panel discussions on the challenges of “emerging European U-space market players” and of “social acceptance”. This event takes place at Port House Antwerp and is organized by the Belgian Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Mobility, Mr Georges Gilkinet, in collaboration with EUROCONTROL and EASA.
