About the Event
The drones are coming! 🎮🚁
Drone technology is rapidly moving from experimentation to practical deployment across agriculture. With falling costs, increasing payload capacity, and rapid advances in AI, autonomy and self-docking systems, drones are poised to become a core part of Queensland’s future farming systems.
But where are we today — and what comes next?
Join us at The Precinct (or online via Zoom) for the next QLD Agritech Meetup, where we’ll explore the current state and future potential of drones in agriculture.
We’ll be joined by a panel of experts working across research, software, and real-world deployment:
- Steven O'Keefe — Professor at Griffith University specialising in robotics, aerospace systems and autonomous technologies
- Jerome Leray — CEO of Infarm
- Luke Chaplain — CEO of SkyKelpie
- David Cole — CEO of FlyFreely
Together we’ll discuss:
- Where drones are already creating value on farm
- How autonomy, AI and robotics are accelerating adoption
- What infrastructure (like docking stations and fleet management) will enable scale
- What this means for Queensland producers and the broader agritech ecosystem
This meetup is open to anyone curious about the flying future of agriculture in Queensland - founders, producers, researchers, investors and ecosystem builders alike.
Come along, ask questions, and connect with the local agritech community.
