THE HELICOPTER AND UNMANNED FLIGHT EXPOSITION
FOR AUSTRALIA, NEW ZEALAND AND THE REGION

With a comprehensive three-day FREE to attend industry conference program, ROTORTECH is the region’s premier helicopter and unmanned flight systems showcase and forum, featuring more than 100 participating companies and key speakers from industry and government.

Join Australia’s helicopter and unmanned aerial flight communities including the Australian Helicopter Industry Association (AHIA), Australian Association for Unmanned Systems (AAUS) and the Aviation Maintenance Repair and Overhaul Business Association (AMROBA) at the industry’s own signature event.

Join the FREE conference program and engage with:

  • Keynote address from the Hon. Michael McCormack MP, Deputy Prime Minister of Australia, Federal Minister for Infrastructure, Transport and Regional Development
  • Aerial firefighting: lessons learned and the way ahead
  • Heli-Mustering: beefing up the helicopter industry
  • Rotary wing tourism: the bird’s eye view
  • Financial forum: question the experts
  • Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems (RPAS) in fire and emergency management, agriculture, infrastructure inspection and aerial survey
  • Helicopter technical workshops from Airbus, Bell, Boeing and Robinson
  • The future rotary wing regulatory landscape

Walk the exhibition floor:

  • More than 100 participating companies
  • Helicopter static displays
  • Unmanned Aerial System demonstrations

Network and socialise:

  • Networking events on the exhibition floor

ROTORTECH 2018 was an unprecedented success, attracting 95 exhibitors, including three days of conferences with 30 speakers across some 22 sessions on Queensland’s Sunshine Coast.

Dramatic growth in demand for the event has prompted a move to the Royal International Convention Centre, Brisbane as a larger, more easily accessible venue with world class facilities, helicopter access and external flying demonstrations and networking.

World of Drones & Robotics Congress @ Hybrid – Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre + Online
Nov 15 @ 9:00 am – Nov 16 @ 5:00 pm
World of Drones & Robotics Congress @ Hybrid – Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre + Online

The World of Drones & Robotics Congress 2021 (WoDaRC) will be held at the Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre on 15 and 16 November 2021. Like last year, it will be presented in a hybrid format, providing in-person physical participation for those able to attend in Brisbane and a high-quality digital experience for those who cannot.

Due to additional companies seeking display space, WoDaRC has moved to a larger space (the Boulevard Auditorium) within the Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre. The Auditorium will also cater to larger numbers and provide increased social distancing for all those attending sessions.

Physical and virtual registration options are available. Al registration options, physical and digital, include access to all congress sessions for six months post-event on an on-demand basis via the WoDaRC viewer portal.
