Central Colorado UAS, the Colorado Office of Economic Development & International Trade and Chaffee County Economic Development Corporation invite you to attend a half day of learning and discovery around the updates affecting emerging unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) technology in a virtual event.

Additional speakers to be identified. If possible, a two-day in-person event will be planned for the Fall of 2021 in Buena Vista, Colorado.
