Drone Show Partners
A dedicated technology platform inside GTLF.
The Korean African Drone Expo is a focused showcase of drone and autonomous systems technology: exhibitors, live demonstrations, technical sessions and structured conversations about technology transfer and joint development.
It sits within the wider GTLF ecosystem — transport, logistics, infrastructure, investment and policy — so that technology is discussed alongside the industries that will deploy it.
Not just on display. In motion.
A programme of participatory activities will bring the energy, control and possibilities of drone technology to life.
Activity formats and timings will be announced as the programme is confirmed.
