DSE DRONE SECURITY EXPO

The DRONE SECURITY EXPO (DSE) has emerged as a milestone event for Europe’s rapidly expanding unmanned aviation sector. From the first steps into the exhibition halls, it becomes clear that this is not a conventional technology fair, but a focused and purpose-driven platform addressing one of the most critical questions of modern aviation: how to safely, responsibly, and effectively manage the growing use of drones. Held at the International Exhibition and Convention Centre EXPO Kraków, the event reflects both technological ambition and a strong sense of public responsibility.

As the first international trade fair in Poland dedicated exclusively to drone technologies and counter-drone systems, the DRONE SECURITY EXPO occupies a unique position in the industry landscape. Organized by Targi w Krakowie Sp. z o.o., the largest trade fair organizer in southern Poland, the event benefits from strong institutional experience while responding to a very contemporary and fast-evolving field.

A dedicated platform for drone security and counter-drone solutions

The defining strength of the DRONE SECURITY EXPO lies in its clear thematic focus on security-related aspects of civilian and governmental drone use. As unmanned aerial systems become more accessible and widespread, their impact on public safety, critical infrastructure, and airspace management has grown significantly. The exhibition directly addresses these challenges by bringing together stakeholders who are responsible for prevention, regulation, response, and innovation.

Public authorities, security services, industrial operators, and technology providers find at DSE a neutral and professional environment for exchange. Instead of abstract discussions, the fair concentrates on concrete use cases and real operational needs. This makes the event particularly relevant for institutions that must balance technological opportunity with legal, ethical, and safety considerations.

The fair also highlights the dual nature of drone technology: on one hand, drones offer efficiency, data, and new capabilities; on the other, they introduce risks that must be understood and mitigated. This balanced perspective gives the DRONE SECURITY EXPO its credibility and long-term relevance.

Hands-on experience through live demonstrations

One of the most distinctive elements of the DRONE SECURITY EXPO is its strong emphasis on practical demonstration. Rather than limiting innovation to exhibition stands, the event creates realistic environments where technologies can be tested, observed, and evaluated.

Live demonstrations are a central attraction and include advanced operational scenarios such as:

BVLOS flights (Beyond Visual Line of Sight)

Counter-drone system tests in controlled conditions

Detection, identification, and mitigation showcases

Integrated security system demonstrations

These demonstrations provide visitors with direct insight into how systems perform outside of theoretical descriptions. For decision-makers, this practical exposure is invaluable, as it supports informed procurement and strategic planning.

The hands-on character of the event also encourages dialogue between developers and users. Feedback from practitioners often leads to improvements and adaptations, strengthening the overall ecosystem.

Expert forums and knowledge exchange

Beyond live technology showcases, the DRONE SECURITY EXPO offers a comprehensive expert forum that deepens understanding and encourages structured discussion. Conferences, workshops, and panel discussions bring together specialists from government, military, police, energy, and industrial sectors.

From regulation to operational reality

The topics addressed go far beyond technical specifications. Speakers and panelists explore regulatory frameworks, airspace integration, data protection, and cross-border cooperation. These discussions underline the fact that drone security is not only a technical issue, but also a legal and organizational one.

Participants benefit from:

Insights into current and emerging regulations

Case studies from real operational environments

Dialogue between technology providers and end users

Shared lessons learned across sectors

This exchange of experience helps align innovation with real-world constraints and responsibilities.

A comprehensive and specialized product landscape

The exhibition presents a broad yet highly specialized range of products and services tailored to the drone security sector. Visitors encounter solutions covering the entire lifecycle of unmanned systems, from development and operation to defense and response.

The showcased portfolio typically includes:

Professional and industrial drone platforms

Software for control, monitoring, and data analysis

Components, sensors, and accessories

Counter-drone and drone defense systems

Training programs and certification services

Consulting and system integration solutions

In addition to established manufacturers, start-ups, technology clusters, chambers of commerce, and government agencies actively participate. This mix creates a vibrant marketplace where innovation, policy, and implementation intersect.

A diverse professional audience and exhibitor base

The DRONE SECURITY EXPO attracts a wide and highly qualified audience. Exhibitors and visitors represent manufacturers, suppliers, software developers, security and defense providers, police forces, military units, start-ups, and research institutions. This diversity ensures that discussions are multi-dimensional and grounded in reality.

On the visitor side, decision-makers and technical experts come from sectors such as security, defense, energy, transportation, aviation, industry, and public administration. Each group brings its own priorities, creating a dynamic exchange of perspectives.

What unites all participants is a shared recognition that drone technology must be managed proactively, with safety and resilience at its core.

Kraków as a strategic host city

Kraków provides an ideal setting for an international event of this scope. As one of Poland’s oldest and most culturally significant cities, it combines historical depth with a rapidly growing reputation as a center for technology, innovation, and international cooperation.

The EXPO Kraków venue offers modern infrastructure and excellent accessibility. Located just minutes from Kraków-Balice Airport and close to the city center, it ensures convenience for international delegations and local participants alike. The surrounding urban environment, with its universities, research centers, and business community, further enhances the relevance of the event.

Why the DRONE SECURITY EXPO matters

In an era where unmanned aviation is advancing faster than regulation and public understanding, specialized platforms are essential. The DRONE SECURITY EXPO fulfills this role by combining technological innovation, practical application, and security expertise under one roof.

By focusing on real challenges and realistic solutions, the event helps shape responsible drone integration into society. It supports collaboration across borders and sectors, strengthens trust between stakeholders, and contributes to the development of safer airspace.

Positioned in the heart of Europe, in the dynamic city of Kraków, the DRONE SECURITY EXPO has established itself as an essential meeting point for anyone involved in the future of drones, counter-drone systems, and the security frameworks that will define unmanned aviation for years to come.
