Where technology, strategy and real-world experience come together

The world of drones is evolving faster than ever. For law enforcement, border control and public safety agencies, the question is no longer if drones will define the future, it is how we prepare for it. At INTERPOL Drone Expert Summit 2025 (IDES2025) in Ávila, the answers take shape.

IDES2025: Keynotes, educational sessions and live demonstrations

The official program for INTERPOL Drone Expert Summit 2025 (IDES2025) is now live. This is the event you cannot miss.

When the skies go silent: Who pays when airports stop for drones?

When the radio chatter falls silent and planes stop moving, airports count the cost of uncertainty. Drone-related shutdowns have exposed how fragile modern aviation becomes when even a hint of risk enters controlled airspace.

Countermeasures: Who acts, who decides and what actually works?

When an unidentified aircraft appears near an airport, power plant or public event, the instinct is simple: stop it. Reality is far more complex. Counter-drone measures range from passive detection to active neutralisation, but questions of responsibility, legality and safety make “shoot it down” far from an obvious answer.

Detection vs. Disruption: The new frontier in counter-drone technology

As drone incidents multiply, the challenge is no longer about spotting them — it’s about preventing disruption. For airports, defence, and critical infrastructure, the next generation of counter-UAS technology must deliver clarity, not confusion.

From panic to prediction: The AI advantage in counter-drone defence

For years, every drone alert meant panic. Now, artificial intelligence is turning chaos into comprehension — predicting risks before they unfold.

The price of doubt: When drones challenge what we think we know

For years, the Nordic and Baltic skies have hosted a steady stream of “possible drone sightings.” Some have turned out to be false alarms; others remain unexplained. Each incident exposes the same problem — the cost of uncertainty in an era where seeing something doesn’t always mean knowing what it is.
