SXSW Panel Session: Who Will Benefit the Most From Drone Delivery?

SXSW Panel Session: Who Will Benefit the Most From Drone Delivery?
March 13, 2024, Hilton Austin Downtown

Join OSB Partner and Innovation Strategist Ashley Touchton, alongside Tom Walker (DroneUp, Founder and CEO), Paul Davenport (Carilion Clinic, Vice President-Emergency Services & Care Management), and Jennifer Jolly (USA TODAY, Journalist) at a SXSW Panel discussing the future of drone delivery.

Commercial drone delivery in the news tends to be focused around companies delivering lunches and groceries but the benefits this technology offers is far more reaching than what many think. This session will break down how and why four unique demographics and communities will gain the most from wide scale commercial drone adoption: the aging in place population, people in rural/remote areas, suburban communities, and people in crisis.
