UMEX is designed as an ideal business platform to promote and showcase unmanned systems technology. The 1st Edition UMEX will provide a professional platform for manufacturers to meet operators and establish lucrative business relationships while promoting the ecological, environmental, civil and humanitarian benefits of unmanned systems.
Speaking on the partnership Saleh Al Marzooqi, IDEX Chief Executive Officer said “The growing sophistication of unmanned systems technology is rapidly defining the modern defence era. We are delighted to have ADASI as principal sponsor in its first year. Unmanned systems represent the very leading-edge of defence technology, reinforcing strong security infrastructures.”
