"DRONE EXPO 2022 in Aichi" will be held - the first in Japan! This is the near future where drones fly around.

1. Purpose of this EXPOProdrone Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Nagoya City, Aichi Prefecture, President and CEO: Shunsuke Totani) will hold the event “DRONE EXPO 2022 in Aichi (hereinafter referred to as this EXPO)” from July 5th to 6th, 2022 at Fujioka Heliport in Toyota City, Aichi Prefecture, where you can experience a drone-based society. Level 4 flight beyond visual range in manned areas is scheduled to be lifted this year, and a ``drone-based society'' is finally upon us. Furthermore, drone logistics in mountainous areas and remote islands is an important measure within the ``digital garden city-state'' concept, which is the framework of new capitalism. The importance of using drones during disasters is also pointed out in the National Resilience Plan, which aims to make Japan a strong and resilient country. Under these circumstances, we will take a look at a ``drone-based society'' in which drones actually fly. At the same time, we hope that through this EXPO, the social acceptance of drones will increase. On July 5th, we are planning Japan's first event centered on drone flight, including a keynote speech by Kotaro Chiba, co-founder/representative partner of DRONE FUND, which is leading the way in a drone-based society, a presentation by Masafumi Hirono, president and representative director of KDDI Smart Drone Corporation, and demo flights from exhibitors. Please come and experience the drone-based society for yourself at this EXPO. *Toyota City and Prodrone Co., Ltd. have concluded a "Mirai Challenge Partnership Agreement," and we are conducting experiments and research at Fujioka Heliport.2.EXPO Overview■Opening July 5th (Tuesday) ・DRONE FUND co-founder/representative partner Kotaro Chiba's keynote speech "What is the impending drone-based society?" ・KDDI Smart Drone Corporation President Masafumi Hirono's presentation "Fly to make your dreams come true" ■Cutting-edge drone presentation flight July 5th (Tuesday) and July 6th (Wednesday) ・Introduction to cutting-edge drone utilization and demonstration flight by Toyota City Fire Department・Introducing the medical DX that Qol Pharmacy is aiming for, "the forefront of pharmaceutical drone delivery" ・Demo flight ・Introducing the disruptive innovation in surveying brought about by Comfort Space FC with drone surveying ・Demo flight ・Introducing Nagoya Railway's track and catenary inspection that accelerates early recovery from disasters ・Demo flight ・Explanation of PRODRONE single helicopter, long-distance drone logistics under strong winds and waves ・Demo flight ・Introducing and exhibiting what is possible with unmanned manned aircraft, an initiative by Terra Lab・PRODRONE next generation concept drone exhibition *Scheduled as of June 10th.
