Save the Date: DIAS Swiss Drone Day 2026 & General Assembly
The Drone Industry Association Switzerland (DIAS) is pleased to announce the date for the 2026 DIAS Swiss Drone Day, which will also include the DIAS General Assembly 2026.
đź“… Thursday, 21 May 2026
đź“Ť Bern region, Switzerland
Following feedback from many of our members, we have decided to adapt the structure of this year’s event to better reflect the different interests and needs across the Swiss drone ecosystem.
A More Flexible Format
The day will now be structured in a way that allows members to join the parts of the programme that are most relevant to them.
Morning – Regulatory Update
The morning session will focus on regulatory developments affecting the Swiss drone sector, including updates related to FOCA, FOCA processes, and broader regulatory topics. This session is particularly relevant for organisations and operators whose daily activities are closely linked to regulatory frameworks and operational approvals.
Lunch
Early Afternoon – DIAS General Assembly 2026
After lunch, we will hold the official DIAS General Assembly, where we will review the association’s activities, developments, and priorities for the coming year.
Afternoon – Swiss Drone Industry Topics & Keynotes
The afternoon programme will shift to broader industry topics, including keynote presentations and discussions relevant to the wider Swiss drone ecosystem.
Closing – Networking Apéro
We will conclude the day with a networking apéro, giving members and guests the opportunity to connect, exchange ideas, and continue conversations with colleagues from across the industry.
Join for the Parts Most Relevant to You
This adjusted format is designed to make the event more practical and relevant for all members. While we would of course be delighted to see as many of you as possible for the full day, this structure allows you to pick and choose the sessions that best match your interests and schedules.
More Information Coming Soon
Further details — including the full agenda, venue information, and a JotForm registration link to confirm attendance — will be shared in the coming week.
For now, please save the date in your calendars.
We look forward to welcoming many of you to the 2026 DIAS Swiss Drone Day in the Bern region.
Many thanks,
Your DIAS Board
