The Drone Federation India (DFI) is set to host its upcoming Drone Shivir under the aegis of the Indian Army and Army Design Bureau. The event, themed “Building an Ecosystem for Design, Development, Manufacturing & Certification of Indigenous Defence UAVs in India,” will bring together key stakeholders from government, users, industry, and academia to drive the vision of a self-reliant drone ecosystem.

The roundtable will focus on addressing the critical challenges and supply chain vulnerabilities hindering the development of an indigenous drone and drone component manufacturing ecosystem in India. By fostering collaboration and knowledge sharing among stakeholders, DFI aims to create a conducive environment for the growth and innovation of the drone industry.

The Drone Shivir will serve as a platform for participants to discuss strategies for promoting indigenization, fostering innovation, and establishing robust supply chains. The event will also explore opportunities for collaboration between government agencies, research institutions, and private companies to accelerate the development of indigenous defense UAVs.

As India continues to prioritize self-reliance in defense manufacturing, the Drone Shivir offers a valuable opportunity to contribute to the country’s efforts to build a strong and resilient drone ecosystem. By addressing the challenges and identifying solutions, participants can help shape the future of the Indian drone industry and strengthen the nation’s defense capabilities.
