Five authors advancing conversations in uncrewed aviation, workforce development, safety, and STEM education will meet attendees and sign books at Booth #340
Glenview, Ill. — Women and Drones, today announced it will host a multi-author book signing event at its booth (#340) during the Commercial UAV Expo, taking place September 1–3, 2026, at Caesars Forum in Las Vegas.
Throughout the three-day conference, the Women and Drones booth will feature five authors from its network who are advancing conversations in uncrewed aviation, workforce development, safety, and STEM education: Desi Ekstein, Jennifer Pidgen, Dr. LaQuata Sumter, Dr. Renee Welch, and Sharon Rossmark. Each author will have dedicated time throughout the event to meet attendees, discuss their work, and sign copies of their books.
“These are the voices shaping how our industry thinks about people, not just platforms,” said Sharon Rossmark, Founder and CEO of Women and Drones and author of Future Flight: How Talent, Capital and Manufacturing will Shape the Next Era of Uncrewed Aviation. “Workforce development, safety, and STEM education are not side conversations in uncrewed aviation. They are the foundation everything else is built on. We wanted to give attendees a chance to meet the authors doing that work directly.”
“We welcome everyone to stop by, say hello, and get their book signed,” Rossmark added. “It’s a great opportunity to connect with leaders who are shaping the future of our industry.”
