Clogworks Feature in Aerial Uptake Video

The commercial UAS/ drone industry is a rapidly expanding sector with incredible potential to create jobs and growth at European level, as well as worldwide.

PwC research from 2018 estimates there will be more than 76,000 drones in use across UK skies by 2030 and this represents a huge opportunity for the industry.

Clogworks are delighted to be featured in the new Aerial Uptake 2021 video, with focus on exploring some key benefits and challenges of innovation and commercialisation of UAS.

Aerial Uptake brings together local / regional public authorities and key players of the UAS sector from 6 European regions.

The research & innovation project is running from August 2019 to January 2023 and has two partners in the UK: Preston City Council and University of Lancashire (UCLAN).

The lead partner is the municipality of Enschede in the Netherlands.

One of the aims of the project is to create a favourable environment at regional level to allow experimentation, demonstration and facilitate widespread uptake of drone technology.

The video in the link below is a media to showcase positive examples and social impacts of drone technology.

Clogworks’ CEO, Peter Opdam, talks about the company’s challenges and successes since its debut in 2014 and its interest to conduct routine BVLOS (Beyond Visual Line of Sight) trials. Collaborations benefits are also highlighted in the video and some “drone for good” use examples are given, with positive outcomes more and more recognised by the public.

We would like to thankPreston City Council, UCLAN, Media Innovation Studio and Carys Kaiser for making this film happen and inviting us to contribute.

Congratulations to everyone involved!
