Jiří Horník at Dronecon 2026
At this year’s Dronecon expert forum, KŠB partner Jiří Horník took part in two panel discussions.
In a panel focused on the future of unmanned traffic regulation, Jiří highlighted several challenges related to the implementation of U-space. During a separate discussion on the possibility of eliminating drones and the related responsibilities, he pointed out that adopting new legislation may not be necessary, as Czech law already provides for certain effective measures.
Dronecon is one of the leading professional forums in the field of unmanned aviation in the Czech Republic, bringing together representatives from the public sector, industry, and technology leaders.
