Arjun Naik, Founder and CEO of Scandron, received the award from Lt Governor of Ladakh, Brig (Dr) B D Mishra, in recognition of Scandron’s expertise in developing state-of-the art drones that can tackle critical logistical challenges in some of the most demanding high-altitude terrains. This award reinforces Scandron’s leadership in the evolving Logistics Drone space.

Known for its harsh climate and high altitudes, Ladakh served as an ideal testing ground for drones designed to operate in extreme environments. The HIM-DRONE-A-THON 2 win is particularly significant as Scandron continues to solidify its position as a leader in logistics drones technology.
