The 3rd annual EDMbiz Conference & Expo heads to The Cosmopolitan Hotel in Las Vegas June 17 through 19 with the addition of an expo featuring EDM-related brands. The initial speakers list is quite broad and even includes Bob Lefsetz who will appear for a “special conversation.” Additional highlights include keynote panels with Hardwell and Above & Beyond and a new EDM consumer report from Nielsen. EDMbiz takes place in the initial days of EDC (Electric Daisy Carnival) Week.
The EDMbiz Conference & Expo is shaping up to be quite the industry affair. This year they’ve added what they describe as a “full-scale expo featuring EDM culture’s most sought-after music and lifestyle brands.”
