Pathways Forward
EASE Report Part 2 | Summer 2025
Executive Summary
Global dynamics create an uncertain, yet promising landscape for the UK drone industry, but critical challenges make this a crucial point to enable scalable, sustainable models.
Commercially viable BVLOS at scale is still at least five years away – too long for the ecosystem to survive without clear, near-term value for end users. We are only scratching the surface, with 100X market growth ahead - but how many will endure the journey?
In this Part 2 paper, leading drone end users in EASE have defined five priorities for action. Expanding today’s applications through these pathways is essential not only to sustain the ecosystem past a tipping point, but also to build the foundations for BVLOS at scale.
