GCC drone market to be worth $1.5bn by 2022

The market for drones services in the GCC region will be worth $1.5bn by 2022, according to a report by the consultancy Strategy&.

Strategy& said much of the predicted $1.5bn figure, which excludes drone procurement, could come from oil and gas, and utilities. These are respectively projected to constitute 43% and 32% of the market.
