Abstract
The drone manufacturing industry is one of the most dynamic and rapidly evolving sectors worldwide. It plays a vital role in defense, agriculture, logistics, and construction, with growing demand fueled by advances in technologies and AI. The full-scale war in Ukraine, along with these technological shifts, accelerated the need for enhanced drone capabilities.
Ukraine's drone sector has demonstrated rapid growth since the start of the full-scale war in 2022, driving innovation and local production. International and local investors, venture capital firms, business acceleration, and government programs have increasingly supported this growth. However, the industry faces challenges, including supply chain reliance on China, regulatory hurdles, war-time risks, and export limitations.
This capstone explores strategic investment opportunities in drone manufacturing, focusing on Ukraine. Through a financial analysis of Ailand Systems as a case study and risk and opportunities analysis using the PESTEL model, it provides insights into investment potential and strategic directions. The report is structured to first review the global market, then analyze investment opportunities, analyze a case study of Ailand Systems, identify industry challenges, and offer actionable recommendations for drone manufacturers on the example of Ailand Systems.
