What’s the Latest Coming Out of the Commercial Drone Industry?  Lisa Ellman is Executive Director of the Commercial Drone Alliance, an independent non-profit organization led by key members of the commercial drone industry.  The Alliance advocates for the commercial use of drones by reducing barriers to enable the technology. It creates value for commercial enterprise end users to facilitate adoption of drone technology, and educates on the benefits of UAS for various end user communities.   Lisa is widely recognized as one of the “world’s foremost authorities” on drone policy and law. She was featured in Fortune's "Most Powerful Women" series for her efforts to develop policy governing drone use in the United States. In addition to her role with the Commercial Drone Alliance, Lisa is also a Partner at Hogan Lovells and Chair of the firm’s global Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) Practice Group, a “one-stop shop” for all legal and policy issues related to commercial drones.  In this episode of the Drone Radio Show, Lisa talks about the Commercial Drone Alliance, a recent White House Summit on Advanced Air Mobility, the status of the FAA BVLOS ARC report and the Commercial UAV Expo, which is going on as we speak in Las Vegas.

Advanced Air Mobility and BVLOS Update ~ Lisa Ellman, Exe. Director Commercial Drone Alliance

While the COVID-19 pandemic has required politically divergent factions to work together, this election year continues to be a time of great division in our country.  Americans are experiencing heightened anxiety and economic uncertainty due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and they are looking to sources of strength, inspiration, and, above all, unity during this trying time.Lisa Ellman, Executive Director of the Commercial Drone Alliance and Partner and Unmanned Aircraft Systems Practice Chair at Hogan Lovells, is one such source. In this episode of Drones in America with Grant Guillot, Ellman, widely considered a trailblazer and visionary in the commercial drone industry, reflects on her career in the industry that began with a series of jobs working for President Barack Obama’s administration (prior that that, President Obama was Ellman’s constitutional law professor at the University of Chicago!).While President Obama’s administration commenced the initiative to integrate drones into the national airspace, President Trump’s administration has continued those efforts without regard to the political differences between the administrations.Ellman says, “It’s absolutely a bipartisan issue – this isn’t something where political differences are stark in any way and, in, fact, I think we can all unite behind seeking to enable commercial drones and public use of drones in a way that benefits society for all of us.”Foreseeing how important the commercial drone industry would become for the country, Ellman realized she could have even more of an impact by moving to the private sector, which led her to establish the UAS Practice at Hogan Lovells, as well as the Commercial Drone Alliance with Gretchen West, now President and CEO at Schiebel Aircraft.In this episode, Ellman also discusses the importance of educating young girls and woman as to the increasingly import role they will play in the industry.  She also addresses the importance of gaining the public trust and the significant role remote identification will play in the integration of drones into the national airspace.
