About XPONENTIAL
Event for unmanned systems and robotics, featuring exhibits, workshops, and networking across defense, commercial, and public safety sectors.
XPONENTIAL 2027
AUVSI's XPONENTIAL runs 17–20 May 2027 at the Miami Beach Convention Center, with the education programme running 18–20 May.
XPONENTIAL is an event for uncrewed systems and robotics — drones, autonomous ground vehicles, maritime autonomy and the software, sensors and policy infrastructure around them. Run by the Association for Uncrewed Vehicle Systems International, it draws an unusual mix: defense programme offices and primes alongside commercial drone operators, delivery companies and the FAA-adjacent policy world.
The show rotates cities annually — 2026 was Detroit — and lands in Miami Beach for 2027.
