RAPAD showcased the region to local, national and international drone companies and enthusiasts in two professional symposiums (2018, 2019) held in Barcaldine.
The organisations capitalised on networks made at the events and continued building relationships with commercial developers both in Australia and overseas.
Key staff from the RAPAD region travelled to drone events including an expo in Japan to learn about industry best practice and promote the region as an ideal location for testing and development work.
RAPAD also created an online guide for accessing the regions best unmanned aerial vehicle sites and actively supported businesses and individuals keen to come to the region with a concierge service.
