Bangkok, Thailand – August 2026 – DronTech Asia 2026 is gaining momentum ahead of its third edition, taking place 11–13 November 2026 at IMPACT Exhibition & Convention Center, Thailand, with a growing international line-up of drone, unmanned systems and advanced technology companies confirming their participation.

The growth comes at an important time for the industry. The Asia-Pacific drone market was valued at approximately US$22.6 billion in 2025 and is projected to reach US$54.9 billion by 2033, representing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.1%, according to Grand View Research. Growth is being driven by expanding commercial applications alongside increasing government and defense demand for unmanned capabilities.

The technology is also changing quickly. Artificial intelligence (AI), robotics, autonomous navigation, advanced communications, cybersecurity, propulsion, batteries and advanced materials are all playing a greater role in how drones are designed, operated and deployed.

DronTech Asia 2026 will bring these technologies together, connecting manufacturers and technology developers with government agencies, defense organizations, operators, system integrators and commercial users from across the region.
