Jordan Mafi, Michael Kalifeh, Esme Pham, Alexandra Greenberg, and EDM Identity’s own Grant Gilmore and Destinee Mondragon are this month’s IndustryHours panelists.
Come August 20, IndustryHours is back with the latest edition of its Monthly Marketing Mixer, which is sponsored by NEFT, at BSPOKE/LA in Los Angeles, a must-attend event for any dance music professional. The August panelist lineup just dropped — and, full disclosure, this one includes two key members of the EDM Identity team.
Namely, our founder and editor-in-chief, Grant Gilmore, and head of social media, Destinee Mondragon, will both participate in talks at the event. The former has made it his mission to raise the bar on EDM journalism, having written and edited thousands of articles since he launched EDM Identity ten years ago. The latter started out in a digital marketing role with EDM Maniac and has parlayed those skills to give the brand a social media presence deserving of its mission.
Gilmore and Mondragon aren’t the only panelists who specialize in the media space. Another is Jordan Mafi, the former editor of Nest HQ who has held various other roles at other companies in the scene over the past decade. Also appearing on the IndustryHours Monthly Marketing Mixer August panelist lineup is Alexandra Greenberg, founder of Falcon Publicity and spokesperson on behalf of artists like deadmau5, HAYLA, Subtronics, and countless others.
And while Esme Pham started out with EDM Maniac, she went on to gain a wealth of experience in digital marketing before landing her current roles offering creative direction and consultation with Thrive Music and Elev808 Designs. Last but not least is Michael Khalifeh, a marketing strategy lead for AEG/Goldenvoice.
Additionally, this edition of the Monthly Networking Mixer will begin with a special guest speaker. PENDULUM and Worlds Away founder and CEO, Magnolia Sevenler, will speak on the future of the two brands and what they have in store for 2026.
