The Nordic drone ecosystem is moving from early adopters to operational deployments in sectors that demand sensor fusion and robust data pipelines. Drone International Expo SE 2026 lands in that environment on 3 and 4 December 2026 at Kistamässan Exhibition & Congress Centre in Stockholm to bring together manufacturers, software developers and service providers in unmanned systems.
Practical information for Drone International Expo SE 2026

Exhibitor profile and represented industries
Exhibitors cover drone and unmanned systems manufacturers, component suppliers including motors and sensors, drone software developers, GPS and geospatial solution providers, research institutes and aerospace organisations. Anti-drone systems and LiDAR suppliers are also listed, indicating breadth that spans agriculture and construction to mapping and defence-adjacent applications.
On-site activities and format
The event features live demonstrations and panel discussions. Demonstrations allow attendees to see aircraft, sensor payloads and data workflows in operation while panels address technical and application topics. The organizers publish a brochure and floor plan to help locate demo areas and exhibitor zones.
Preparing B2B prospecting in Stockholm
- Book meetings in advance using the exhibitor list and floor plan to secure time with priority vendors.
- Focus on technical validation during demos. Ask about sensor calibration, API access and data formats to assess integration effort.
- Request sample datasets from LiDAR and geospatial vendors to evaluate processing pipelines and accuracy.
- Bring clear use cases and budget bands to accelerate procurement conversations and identify vendors with relevant experience.
Market context and figures
An included Statista report places Swedish drone market revenue at US$ 5.69 million in 2024 and projects US$ 6.52 million by 2029 with a compound annual growth rate of 2.76% for 2024 to 2029. Those figures provide context for commercial opportunities on display at the expo.
