Our aim is to deliver industry backed guidance to the UK Government on the steps required to enable safe and secure rapid commercialization of the UK drone industry.

In the last few years, the UK Government has worked tirelessly to understand and develop strategies to enable what is widely understood as one of the most exciting emerging industries in modern history.  The drone industry encompasses many elements which, when fully commercialized, will create significant benefits to UK Plc.  While the drone industry spans all environments (surface, underwater, air & space), for the purposes of this paper, the term drone is used purely to represent air drones (UAS).
