PHILIP REECE

BOARD MEMBER

NOMINATIONS COMMITTEE CHAIR

With a background of tech start-up and commercial aviation, the world of unmanned aerial systems was a logical one for Philip Reece, the founder of InDro Robotics.

Fresh from the world of commercial general aviation, as the CEO of a seaplane airline flying 16 flights a day with a fleet of De Havilland DHC-2 “Beavers”, Philip noticed many of the industry flights for clients in construction, mining, forestry, and wildlife could be carried out by UAVS. From there it was a matter of finding the smartest people in the industry and building up a team that could set about bringing the professionalism of commercial aviation to the burgeoning world of “drones”.

Prior to his role in aviation, Philip started and successfully built companies in IT, oil & gas and control and instrumentation taking him from one end of the world to the other, opening offices in London, Houston, Toronto and satellite offices in many locations ending in ‘stan and ow primarily based at the R&D office in Victoria, BC he still gets to travel to far flung places when servicing the humanitarian aid clients that InDro Robotics works with, recently completing work in Haiti and Nepal.
