AUVSI will co-host the FAA's third annual Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) Symposium from March 6-8, 2018 at the Baltimore Convention Center in Baltimore, Maryland.

The UAS Symposium provides attendees with the opportunity to engage face-to-face with government leaders, innovators, and top industry stakeholders to discuss the latest industry developments, the current regulatory environment, emerging research, and other relevant issues surrounding the integration of UAS into the national airspace.
