Artists like Nicole Moudaber and Bedouin — as well as key decision makers from brands like Beatport, Meta, and Factory People — will speak at IMS Dubai.


Now in its second year, IMS Dubai is proving to be a worthwhile adaptation of Ibiza‘s world-famous International Music Summit conference. And with this year’s edition taking place on November 13-14 at Hotel One Central, organizers decided it was high time to announce the first handful of speakers.

According to IMS, this year’s delegates are coming from countries like Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, Italy, Egypt, India, Ghana, Lebanon, and Pakistan. Among them are famous artists like Nicole Moudaber, Bedouin, and DJ Jade.

Hosting this year’s event are world-famous broadcast journalist Pete Tong and post-pandemic breakthrough artist Nooriyah. The conference will also feature higher-ups from relevant companies as speakers, not the least of whom are The Beatport Group CCO Sofia Ilyas and Meta Strategic Partner Manager Samer Jamal.

“The launch of Beatport Presents IMS Dubai last year showed just how much energy, creativity and ambition exists in our community in the SWANA region,” said Tong in a statement. “Electronic music here is on an exciting upward trajectory, creatively, culturally, and as an evolving market with exciting opportunities for growth and collaboration.”

Nooriyah added: “I’m so excited to be joining Beatport Presents IMS Dubai as co-host this year alongside Pete Tong. The SWANA region is one of the most inspiring places in electronic music right now, full of creativity and growth. This summit provides a platform to celebrate incredible artists, amplify the voices of the region, and create meaningful connections that will help shape the future of our culture across SWANA and beyond.”

Badges are currently on sale for $850 AED ($232 USD) plus fees. Purchase yours via Platinumlist, and find more information on the International Music Summit website.
