Event Details:
- What are drones and how did they suddenly go from hobbyists' basements to a multi-billion dollar industry?
- What are the current laws for drones? Who decides where and how they can be flown? Should we worry about them running amok? Taking over the world?
- Is there insurance coverage for drones? How can we manage this emerging risk?
