For those attending EDMBiz next week, the full schedule has just been announced:
Boards and panels at EDMbiz 2016 will handle the themes and issues at the front line for anybody hoping to break into the dance music industry. One featured discussion will include a selective presentation “EDM is Dead, Long Live EDM!” (EDM’s Value to Brands and Live Events). In this presentation Nielsen will talk about the enormously overstated “death of EDM” and spotlight on the worth EDM fans convey to buyer brands and the live dance music industry.
In addition to the two rooms of programming, EDMbiz will offer attendees the opportunity to take part in some other unique items such as the finals of the first-ever EDC Hackathon, the return of the EDMbiz A&R contest, and a one-of-a-kind mentoring program hosted by Little Empire Music and SkyLight with the intention to empower and educate young hopefuls.
EDMbiz will be taking attendee networking to the next level by beginning each day with a yoga session by Divine Movement and ending each day with a conference wide Networking Happy Hour. Participants will also be able to have facetime with Moby directly following his Keynote as the iconic producer will host a special book signing of Porcelain: A Memoir.
