Shenzhen Low-Altitude Economy and Unmanned Systems ExhibitionUASE

The Shenzhen Low-Altitude Economy and Unmanned Systems Exhibition (UASE), held concurrently with the Shenzhen Drone Exhibition (UASE), serves as a leading indicator for the drone market in China and worldwide.

As the annual flagship event of the global low-altitude economy, this exhibition leverages Shenzhen’s industrial strengths as the “Drone Capital,” focusing on innovative developments in drones and the low-altitude economy. It establishes a premier platform for high-level international exchanges, resource matchmaking, and technology transfer, comprehensively showcasing China’s robust capabilities in the low-altitude economy and spearheading a new phase of high-quality growth for the global low-altitude industry.

Currently, the low-altitude economy has been included in the Government Work Reports for three consecutive years, entering a critical window characterized by the concentrated release of policy benefits, accelerated technological breakthroughs, and large-scale implementation across diverse application scenarios. As a result, this trillion-yuan blue-ocean market is rapidly expanding, emerging as a new growth engine and a powerful driver of high-quality economic development.

Shenzhen, as a pioneering and exemplary city in China for high-tech innovation and the development of the science and technology industry, is widely known as the “Drone Capital.” Leveraging its robust industrial foundation, well-established ecosystem, and cutting-edge innovation capabilities, it has become a global hub for the drone and low-altitude economy sectors and is actively striving to establish itself as the “World’s No. 1 City for the Low-Altitude Economy.” 

Leveraging Shenzhen’s “20+8” strategic emerging industry cluster framework, the low-altitude economy—identified as a key growth area—has expanded into multiple sectors, including manned flight, logistics and transportation, last-mile delivery, and urban governance services. With its technological innovation capabilities consistently leading the world, the sector has achieved leapfrog development across the board—from core chips and flight control systems to complete aircraft manufacturing and real-world applications—continuously injecting strong momentum into the World Unmanned Aircraft System Conference. This has driven the event’s steady expansion in scale, elevation of its thematic scope, and sustained enhancement of its global influence. As the industry empowers the conference and the conference, in turn, reinforces the industry, Shenzhen and the World Unmanned Aircraft System Conference enjoy symbiotic prosperity, mutually catalyzing each other’s growth.

The Shenzhen Low-Altitude Economy and Unmanned Systems Exhibition (UASE) spans an exhibition area of 110,000 square meters, bringing together 1,220 drone and low-altitude economy–related enterprises from 17 countries and regions. With tens of thousands of drones on display, the event has established a comprehensive showcase ecosystem covering the entire industry chain, offering a holistic view of technological innovations and industry development trends in the low-altitude economy. The exhibit portfolio encompasses not only core equipment such as drones, eVTOLs, flying cars, general aviation aircraft, and unmanned helicopters, but also extends into emerging fields including artificial intelligence, low-altitude infrastructure, low-altitude safety and security systems, communication and navigation technologies, as well as new materials and renewable energy sources, achieving full‑dimensional coverage from core technologies to real-world applications.

The event will attract over 200,000 professional visitors for networking and business discussions, with more than 10,000 global trade buyers participating. Overseas sub-venues have been established in countries and regions including South Korea, Saudi Arabia, and Pakistan, enabling seamless connectivity of global resources and efficient integration of online and offline activities. This initiative will further promote the internationalization of drone technologies and products, enhancing the global influence of Shenzhen’s drone industry and low-altitude economy.

The Shenzhen Low-Altitude Economy and Unmanned Systems Exhibition (UASE) is not only a grand industry event that brings together global expertise, but also a fresh starting point for driving industrial upgrading. We are confident that, taking this conference as an opportunity, industry peers worldwide will build consensus, deepen collaboration, and foster the deep integration of drone technology across diverse sectors, enabling low-altitude technologies to better empower social development and improve people’s livelihoods. Meanwhile, Shenzhen will continue to leverage its strengths as the “Drone Capital,” guided by technological innovation, supported by industrial clusters, and strengthened through international cooperation, injecting continuous Shenzhen wisdom and Chinese momentum into the high-quality development of the global low-altitude economy.
