CLEDC 2027
Xi’an Low-Altitude Economy Development Conference and Low-Altitude Industry Chain Expo
西安低空经济发展大会暨低空产业链博览会
About the show
Xi’an Low-Altitude Economy Development Conference and Low-Altitude Industry Chain Expo (CLEDC) is a trade show for the low-altitude economy, laid out so that aircraft, ground infrastructure and airspace control appear as one operating chain. Detection radar, counter-drone systems and supervision platforms have a hall of their own beside the UAVs and eVTOL aircraft they track, and a new zone covers aerial embodied intelligence: low-altitude models, onboard AI, swarm coordination and robots built for inspection, emergency response and city maintenance.
Government has a place on the floor as well. Provincial and municipal programmes on airspace reform, industrial parks and demonstration scenarios are presented as showcases, with park and base promotion alongside, which makes the show a meeting point for public buyers and suppliers. Shaanxi’s aerospace and defence research base and the east-west cooperation link with Jiangsu shape the exhibitor list, and the Yangtze River Delta, Pearl River Delta and northeast aviation clusters all send delegations. Public security, emergency management, airports and tourism procurement teams form the core buyer group; international delegations, investors, research teams and universities make up much of the rest.
