DroneUA 11th Anniversary: Pioneering Innovation

Today, the Ukrainian representative office of Futurology — DroneUA celebrates the 11th anniversary of its activities in the Eastern European market ✈️✨ Over the past 11 years, DroneUA has repeatedly pioneered the creation of markets for innovative technologies in agriculture, energy, topography, mining, infrastructure, security, real estate, and data processing — becoming a driving force behind their development. Among our achievements: 🔶Large-scale projects in the mining sector, including collaboration with Ferrexpo - Ukrainian. 🔶Pioneering inspections of wind power plants totaling over 100 MW, as well as drone applications on solar panels — preceded only by companies like Google and Facebook. 🔶Ukraine is the world’s leading market in terms of the speed and scale of agrodrones integration — it was with our drones that farmers first took to the fields for agro-monitoring and scouting. 🔶During a particularly challenging time, we helped ensure energy independence for over 200,000 Ukrainian families, with the total capacity of distributed energy systems surpassing 350 MWh. Our eleventh year in Ukraine has been incredible — filled with momentum, discovery, and the unknown. We pushed toward the “impossible,” stepping into the challenging, yet irresistibly exciting: 🌟Launched two Ukrainian pavilions at the world’s most influential event s— Commercial UAV Expo and CES in Las Vegas — where we received recognition from Gary Shapiro, CEO of the Consumer Technology Association (CTA) and executive producer of CES. 🌟Founded the global Fleet of Millions initiative, a launchpad for innovators in unmanned technology and one of the largest global ecosystems for robotics development. 🌟Co-created Beetless, an innovative startup for safe, non-chemical pest control — shaping the vision of future agriculture. 🌟Featured in iconic international outlets like The New York Times and the American edition of Forbes. 🌟Ranked among Ukraine’s TOP 100 most promising startups with FarmFleet, an initiative and partner company within the DroneUA ecosystem, also named one of Ukraine’s TOP 100 AgTech companies and startups. 🌟Received the 2024 Ellie Award from the Pennsylvania Drone Association for our major contributions to drone industry growth in the state. 🌟Registered as an official trademark in the United States, opening new opportunities for Ukrainian engineering across the ocean. 🌟Secured our 7th government contract in the U.S. 🌟We were among the 9 pioneers who initiated self-regulation in the field of AI and, together with 13 leading Ukrainian IT companies, signed the Voluntary Code of Conduct for the Ethical and Responsible Use of Artificial Intelligence in Ukraine. 🌟Contributed to the academic monograph Marketing Communications: Innovations and Modern Trends with case studies in agricultural robotics. 🌟Signed memorandum of cooperation between Ukrainian and Japanese businesses. 🌟Became a key part of the UNDP initiative supporting Ukraine’s industrial regions. 🌟In total, we held and participated in over 150 events worldwide, attracting more than 196,000 attendees. At these events, we fostered technological cooperation between Ukraine and the United States, laid the groundwork for strategic partnerships in robotics and aerospace technologies, shared our expertise in developing and effectively deploying robotics, contributed to strengthening global food security, and played a key role in building and reinforcing technology ecosystems by uniting developers. If there are 365 days in a year, we’ll always need just one more to accomplish everything we’ve planned across continents 🙌🏼 Over these 11 years, we’ve become certain of one thing — nothing is impossible. Every one of our achievements is a story of shared recognition. And that story is only beginning. Thank you all for your trust and support. Let’s keep pushing forward — together👏🏼
