The Unmanned Systems Expo (TUSExpo)

On 4 – 6 February 2015, The Hague will host the first edition of the European trade fair The Unmanned Systems Expo at the city’s World Forum. TUSExpo is aimed at the fast-growing market for unmanned systems such as drones and will feature both commercial and civil applications in areas including security, agriculture, industry, science, entertainment and environmental protection. Expected to attract some 3,500 international visitors, TUSExpo will be both a conference and a trade exhibition. During the conference, leading experts will speak on behalf of business, science and government on the latest technologies, their applications as well as relevant international regulations. The trade exhibition will demonstrate to visitors the possibilities offered by unmanned systems.
