ADLC calls for concrete actions to accelerate the deployment of BVLOS operations at the European Drone Summit
Today, our Co-founder and CTO, Grégoire Moreau, participated in the EU Drone Summit 2026 in Brussels, an event bringing together policymakers, industry leaders, and innovators who are shaping the future of the European drone ecosystem.
During the session “The Future of BVLOS UAS Operations”, Grégoire joined a distinguished panel alongside Maria Algar Ruiz, Chief Expert Airspace Integration at the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), Predrag Vranjkovic, Head of Strategy, Engagement and Institutional Relations at EUROCONTROL, Giulio Segurini, CEO of STRADAai, and Maris Gorodcovs, Director General of the Civil Aviation Agency of Latvia.
On this occasion, ADLC put forward three key recommendations:
Make full use of Regulation (EU) 2019/947, which already provides the necessary framework and tools to enable the large-scale deployment of BVLOS operations today. Strengthen the resources allocated to National Civil Aviation Authorities (CAAs) and EASA to support the scaling of operators and the broader drone industry. Ensure fair access to international markets, or genuine market reciprocity, for European operators.
A sincere thank you to the European Commission, with the support of the Belgian Federal Public Service Mobility and Transport and the SESAR Joint Undertaking, for organizing this valuable event.
