BUSAN, KOREA, February 04, 2025 /24-7PressRelease/ — DSK 2025 takes place from February 26 (Wednesday) to 28 (Friday) at BEXCO in Busan. Originally launched as South Korea’s first drone-focused exhibition in 2016, Drone Show Korea has showcased drones’ limitless scalability and applications over the past decade, earning the title of ‘Asia’s largest’ drone event. This year, it has been rebranded as DSK.

DSK 2025 will feature a range of joint and special exhibition zones centered around “All About Drones: Boundless Expansion of Drones.” The Defense Zone will host prominent defense industry leaders, including the Republic of Korea Army, Navy, and Air Force, and major Korean defense companies such as Korean Air, LIG Nex1, KAI, Poongsan, Korea Defense Industry, and Vessel Aerospace.

Israel’s D-FEND will present its C-UAS (Counter-Unmanned Aircraft System) technology.

The Disaster & Safety Drone Pavilion will showcase Korea’s Fire Department, K-Water, and the Drone & Security Research Institute. For the first time, innovations such as Liberaware’s ultra-compact drones for hazard detection and KAIST ASCL’s hybrid VTOL hoverbike will debut in Korea.

The Geospatial Information Convergence Alliance, spearheaded by the Spatial Information Quality Management Service, will showcase drone-based data collection and 3D mapping advancements. WAYS1, iGiS, SISTECH, and ALLFORLAND will be involved.
