The virtual workshop will be facilitated by Tim Morrison, BAG Board Member and Shakir Khaja, Lead of the BAG Business Intelligence Working Group with the Department for International Trade (DIT).

BAG Members have been invited by AGS Airports to attend an event at Glasgow Airport on ‘CAELUS Project - a reflection on the success of the previous phase and a launch of the newest phase funded by Innovate UK’ on the 6^th September 2022. As this is taking place on the same day as the BAG Scottish Regional meeting we have decided to cancel this meeting as we believe this event is a fantastic opportunity for BAG Members in the region to get involved and find out more on their CAELUS drones initiative.
