SAADEF, my first exhibition in Saudi Arabia, left me amazed in many ways, but what stood out the most was the involvement of young visitors. From high school students to college attendees, they impressed me with their engineering skills, business savvy, and open, direct communication.
The Saudi Arabia AI and Drone Exhibition and Forum (SAADEF) is a premier platform showcasing cutting-edge drone technologies and fostering international collaborations. It reflects Saudi Arabia’s growing influence in the global drone industry, aligning with Vision 2030’s innovative aspirations.
We express our feedback on our participation in SAADEF, which was a great event by all standards, we met with experts from inside and outside the Kingdom, and signed important agreements in the fields of drones and artificial intelligence, we look forward to the next edition of the exhibition.
