Discover how one global network is quietly shaping the future of drones, robotics, and AI across the entire energy industry — and why the Caribbean is more connected to this movement than you might think.

Sean Guerre, Executive Director of the Energy Drone and Robotics Coalition (EDRC), sits down with Alan to trace the organisation's journey from a 150-person event to a global network of over 20,000 professionals and 200+ energy and utility companies. Sean unpacks what's happening right now in autonomous operations, the regulatory shifts that will affect every drone operator, and why the next decade looks very different from the last.

Key topics covered:

• How the EDRC grew from a small meetup to the world's premier industrial drone and robotics network
• The current state of autonomous operations in oil, gas, and energy — including Level 4 automation in the field today
• What Caribbean professionals can expect at the Energy Drone & Robotics Summit (June 22–24, Houston)
• Key regulatory developments — NDAA/FCC supply chain rules and FAA Part 108 — and what they mean for operators
• How humanoids, drone-in-a-box systems, and physical AI are changing energy operations right now
