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.
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.
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.

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.
At IDES2025 you will meet public safety leaders from around the world. Through keynotes, training and live demonstrations, you’ll discover how drones are already changing today’s missions and what’s next.
