Organizers of Commercial UAV Expo have formed a strategic collaboration to bring HYSKY Society hydrogen aviation education to Commercial UAV Expo in Las Vegas, NV, September 3-5, 2024. 

Commercial UAV Expo is a global commercial drone trade show and conference. The event will be co-locating with HYSKY Society, producer of the world’s largest hydrogen aviation event focused on zero-emission aviation.

Together, they aim to enhance the collaborative opportunities for professionals in the commercial drone and hydrogen aviation sectors and advance the future of hydrogen-based flight. 

Danielle McLean, Founder & CEO of HYSKY Society, said; “Co-locating the FLYING HY Conference 2024 with Commercial UAV Expo is huge for HYSKY. It’s not everyday a small startup nonprofit gets to share our passion for hydrogen aviation with nearly 4000 people.

We’re beyond thankful for the Commercial UAV Expo’s support—it’s exactly the boost that hydrogen aviation needs to spread the word about this magical little molecule and get everyone as excited about clean skies as we are.”

Lee Corkhill, Group Event Director at Diversified Communications, organizer of Commercial UAV Expo, said; “It’s imperative to recognize hydrogen as a power source for the commercial drone space, making HYSKY Society a perfect fit as a collaborative event partner with Commercial UAV Expo.

“Adding the FLYING HY Conference and a Hydrogen Pavilion will allow attendees to get a closer look at technological progression and future opportunities.”

HYSKY Society will host a myriad of offerings as part of the co-location including a full-day Hydrogen Aviation Course, and the FLYING HY Conference, which is the world’s largest hydrogen aviation event featuring two days of education for the hydrogen aviation ecosystem. Attendees will learn how to source hydrogen, fly safely with hydrogen, benefit from tax credits, and build and position their businesses as leaders in the hydrogen market. Additionally, a Hydrogen Pavilion on the exhibit hall floor will showcase top vendors and technology in the space. 

The HYSKY Society event co-location will complement three days of robust commercial UAS offerings, including the Commercial UAV Expo Conference Program, Keynotes, the DRONERESPONDERS Public Safety Summit, outdoor flying demonstrations, pilot training, add-on workshops, 225+ solutions providers, Exhibit Hall Theater programming, and networking events.
