Drones (also known under the acronyms UAS, UAV, RPAS) are opening up new amazing business and service opportunities as ever before. Cross-sectorial and cross-fertilized co-operation  among sectors are the only options possible to stay at the edge of competitiveness and technology, whatever the main activity sector a company is in.  Come & gain new business perspectives with drones!

Drone companies will meet representatives from end-users sectors and discuss win-win collaborations. Companies active in more traditional sectors will measure and maximize on the value that civilian use of drones can bring to their business.

Enterprise Europe Brussels c/o impulse.brussels - with the support of BeUAS, the Belgian Drone Federation - organises the 1st edition of the “DroneDays” matchmaking event 2016. The event will take place during the professional days of the “DroneDays” fair, in parallel to the “Imaging Days” fair, in Brussels. Really added value and focused event for professionals who are business-minded and opened to new perspectives. 

The main purpose of this event is to:

- pave bridges for collaboration among companies which are active in a given economic sector and which could enhance their competitiveness by relaying on the technical advantages a drone can provide, thus opening up opportunities for new organisation and business model innovations in more traditional ways of doing business.

- Initiate cross-border contacts and long-lasting co-operations (clients/partners/end-users)
