MILITARY ROBOTICS & AUTONOMOUS SYSTEMS

Military Robotics & Autonomous Systems is the leading event dedicated to the development, procurement and integration of Uncrewed Systems (UxS). In an era of heightened instability and growing threats, the ability to deploy risk-reducing yet tempo- and mass-generating robotics and autonomous systems has never been more critical. As the UK and allied NATO nations significantly increase defence spending, investment in robotics and autonomous systems is accelerating. This surge in funding underscores a clear priority for the RAS community: ensuring the safe, effective, and scalable operationalisation of these technologies to deliver enhanced capability, resilience, and interoperability across modern battlefields. With 300+ attendees representing more than 25 nations worldwide, the 9th annual Military Robotics and Autonomous Systems conference is not to be missed.

THE LOITERING MUNITIONS USA CONFERENCE

The Loitering Munitions USA Conference will return to Arlington, VA in May 2026 as the only forum built exclusively to for education and networking on the latest Loitering Munitions Programs. With insights from senior leadership, operators & acquisition professionals from across the entire US DOD, and welcoming perspectives from key international allies, attendees will hear directly from those pioneering LM development and integration in one dedicated forum across two days. Whether as a speaker, industry partner or delegate, we look forward to welcoming you to this vital gathering in May 2026.

EMEA HUMANOID ROBOT SUMMIT 2026

EMEA Humanoid Robot Summit 2026 will focus on the latest progress in core technologies, manufacturing ecosystems, ethics and safety, and real-world applications. It will feature a main forum and several thematic sessions, covering AI algorithms, perception and motion control, bionic materials, power systems, human–robot collaboration, and regulatory frameworks. Additionally, an innovation showcase and investment matchmaking program will connect cutting-edge technologies with global markets and capital. Within Europe’s open and responsible technology ecosystem, this summit will not only serve as a leading platform for technological exchange but also as a key driver for the sustainable and ethical development of humanoid robotics worldwide. We look forward to welcoming scientists, entrepreneurs, and policymakers from around the world to co-create the next chapter of the intelligent humanoid era.

2026 ENERGY DRONE & ROBOTICS SUMMIT

Join us for the ultimate event in the world for UAVs, Robotics & Data/AI, 3D Reality Capture, Geospatial and Digital Twins focused on the business and technology in energy & industrial operations, inspections, maintenance, surveying & mapping. Over the last 9 years, it has grown to the most influential gathering of industrial, energy and engineering asset owners/operators from around the globe where the key challenges & solutions are addressed for operating robotics, drones, satellites, and remote systems successfully and managing actionable geospatial data , from the stars to the sea floor. During three days, we connect 1500+ global energy & industrial robotics, drone & data leaders at a time of rapid growth for our sector. The latest ideas, use cases, best practices, tech, and trends from a wide variety of robotics & drone industry experts: innovators, regulators, the most energy asset owners & service firms and more.

NEXT GENERATION UAS SUMMIT

The battlefield has changed - drone dominance is no longer a future ambition, but rather today’s operational imperative. IDGA's Next Generation UAS Summit convenes senior leaders from the U.S. military, defense innovation community, and industrial base to drive the next phase of unmanned capability. As unmanned aerial systems redefine lethality, ISR, electronic warfare, and force projection, this summit focuses on scaling production, integrating advanced autonomy, and fast-tracking acquisition to deliver battlefield advantage. Over two focused days, you will gain direct visibility into emerging UAS investment priorities, one-way attack systems, vertical lift modernization, AI-enabled autonomy, ISR capabilities, and next-generation training pipelines. Hear real-world lessons from Ukraine, understand expanding industrial base opportunities, and align with the policies reshaping procurement and deployment. Join us in June to secure your position at the forefront of next-generation UAS capability and operational dominance.

COMMERCIAL UAV EXPO

Commercial UAV Expo, September 1-3, 2026 in Las Vegas is the premier event for the commercial drone industry focusing on the integration/operation of commercial UAS and showcasing Drones In Action. The event will feature exhibits and demonstrations by sUAS solutions providers, keynotes, panel discussions, outdoor demos, AI-powered networking; and more.
