Dronitaly is back

The third edition will host the two innovative areas Pro and Fun

Modenafiere - the well-known Italian fair happening in Modena - will host the third edition of Dronitaly. The biggest drones kermis will take place from September 30th until October 1st 2016.

An absolute novelty of this year will be the two areas Pro and Fun. The former gathers all the companies active in the professional use of drones. It will be a marketplace where the demand for professional drones will encounter the offer. Besides companies, the area Pro will host experts, academics and research centres able to give precise information on the use of drones at work. In particular, greater attention will be given to the following sectors: security, agriculture, construction and surveillance.  Workshops, roundtables and One2One meetings will work as functional discussion forums.

The area Fun is basically devoted to the use if drones as a hobby, primarily addressing makers, developers and youth. Drones fans will also be informed on the rules regulating the drones' flight in "consumer mode". In particular, makers, developers and high school kids will be given a space called Fucina where they will have the chance to present their projects. At the same time schoolchildren will have a dedicated section (the Nursery), along with the biggest indoor fly circuit ever made in Italy (the Arena).

The need to inform consumers on the rules of drones' flight is essential, considering that they occupy the same flight space of planes. Therefore, rules have to be learnt in order to keep high security standards.

The past two editions worked as a good experiments to improve Dronitaly, enriching it with new spaces, activities close to customers' preferences. In 2015, 100 thousand pieces were sold and this year forecasts are quite positive as well.

Certainly, Dronitaly stands as the perfect venue to go to know more about drones, their use and functions, both for leisure activities and for work.
