Where military meets industry and science

AMW UAV Forum is the first edition of "Gazeta Morska's" drone forum in Poland dedicated to the development and integration of multi-domain unmanned systems. The event brings together military experts, defense industry representatives, the academic community and public administration, creating a unique space for exchanging knowledge, experience and perspectives.

The Forum serves as a platform for in-depth debate on the contemporary use of unmanned systems in operational, technological and social dimensions. The program includes a comprehensive approach to real-world applications of UAVs, UGVs and USVs, including lessons learned from current armed conflicts, analysis of their effectiveness, possibilities for scaling production and integration with other combat systems.

At the center of attention is the development of multi-domain system concepts and system-of-systems approaches, enabling cooperation of platforms operating in the air, land and sea domains. An important element of the discussion is also the growing role of artificial intelligence, autonomy and shortening of decision-making chains in modern operations.

The Forum also addresses the issue of countering threats from unmanned systems, including the development of counter-drone technologies and the protection of critical infrastructure. Both technological, operational and economic aspects related to the detection and neutralization of threats are analyzed.

Equally important is the social dimension of the drone revolution, including civilian applications, the use of unmanned systems by public services, and the legislative and competency challenges facing the state and its institutions.

AMW UAV Forum is not just a conference, but above all a space for shaping the directions of technology development, strengthening cross-sectoral cooperation and developing future solutions in the field of unmanned systems in Poland and Europe. A space launching a new initiative integrating the unmanned community around common challenges and development opportunities.
