The business program of the International Forum "Unmanned Systems: Technologies of the Future" has been published

The official website of the event has published the business program of the International Forum "Unmanned Systems: Technologies of the Future", which will be held from August 7 to 17, 2025 on the territory of the Skolkovo Innovation Center.

Developers, manufacturers, operators, consumers, scientific and educational organizations, regulators and representatives of government agencies in the field of unmanned aircraft and robotic systems (UAS and BRS) will take part in discussions on topical issues of the development of unmanned systems in Russia, establishing cooperation and establishing export links. The business program will run on August 14-15, 2025. To participate, you must first register on the Forum's website.

"Russian President Vladimir Putin has set a clear goal – to make Russia one of the global technological leaders in the field of unmanned aircraft systems by 2030. To do this, it is necessary not only to ensure the localization of production and the ability to create a wide range of drones, but also to form a powerful industry with a developed infrastructure and high-quality service. The most important conditions for achieving this goal are accelerated technology development, simplified flight procedures, and the creation of a personnel training system. In this regard, the Forum is intended to become a platform where efforts to achieve these goals are concentrated, supporting innovation and paving the way for the mass introduction of unmanned systems into the economy and daily life of the country," said Anton Kobyakov, Adviser to the President of the Russian Federation.

The program's discussions are structured around six key thematic blocks that reflect the current directions of the industry's development: "Market", "Technology", "Production", "Infrastructure", "Drones and Society", and "Personnel".

The plenary session "The national rating of dronification. How to consider the economy of the sky #Archipelag2025" will become an important discussion platform dedicated to the formation and development of the national ranking of the regions of Russia.

In addition, during the plenary session, participants will discuss approaches to measuring and calculating the sky economy, a new industry economy where the integration of unmanned platforms, the development of services based on them, and the organization of digital, seamless airspace play a key role.

The Forum's business program will also include the FORESIGHT 2050 session, which will focus on the global future of the drone industry. Participants will consider how autonomous transport technologies, integration with the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence and quantum computing will affect various industries and change everyday life. Experts and industry representatives will try to identify the most likely scenarios for the future, identify possible challenges and new opportunities, and discuss what actions need to be taken now to successfully move towards technological leadership and adapt to a rapidly changing world.

The international forum "Unmanned Systems: Technologies of the Future" will be held in Moscow for the first time on behalf of Russian President Vladimir Putin. The forum will bring together leading Russian and foreign experts, developers, manufacturers and exporters. Educational intensive courses, a business program with discussion of current industry topics, drone competitions and the international pilot championship "Moscow Mayor's Cup" are planned as part of the event. Most of the program will cover the annual design and educational intensive "Archipelago-2025", which is held within the framework of the forum-festival "Territory of the Future. Moscow-2030". Guests will also be able to visit an exhibition of the latest achievements in the field of unmanned systems and take part in workshops on sports drone management and delivery technologies.
