“XPONENTIAL brings together the most creative minds working on issues face the UAS industry today,” said Brian Wynne, president and CEO of AUVSI. “A drone race at XPONENTIAL is not only an opportunity to showcase how UAS technology is advancing, particularly when it comes to agility and speed, but it is also an exciting event that solidifies XPONENTIAL as the place to be for all things unmanned.”
UVify’s Title Sponsorship of the Denver Internationals will add another exciting experience for the attendees of AUVSI XPONENTIAL 2018. During the race, UVify will demonstrate several of its high-speed products, including the new OOri micro-drone, on the IDRA race track and drone cage. Competing pilots will also get the opportunity to qualify for a Draco Stock Race, which will be integrated between elimination rounds for the Challengers Cup race. Additionally, all race content from the Denver Internationals will be presented by UVify and featured by the Official Media Partner of the IDRA, Dailymotion.

“UVify is a great partner to have to support our goals for the sport,” said Justin Haggerty, President and CEO of IDRA. “There is no doubt, in my mind, that drone racing is the future of motorsports. But first, IDRA needs industry leaders like UVify and AUVSI to work with us to grow the international drone community and introduce new people, especially kids, to the sport and the technologies racers use to compete. We are extremely excited to welcome UVify along for the long flight ahead.”
