Commenting on the line-up of speakers, IMS Ibiza co-founder and curator Ben Turner said: “IMS returns to open the Ibiza season with a powerful and diverse mix of carefully considered content focused on the key issues facing our industry today.

“In 2023, we no longer have the luxury of speculating about the future: AI has fully arrived, and things will move fast from this point forward,” he continued.

“In our industry’s first full year back to business after COVID, we’re presented with a dizzying array of new products, problems, and possibilities.

“Artists finally returning to touring do so amongst a huge generational shift and soaring production and travel costs whilst attempting to navigate the increasingly complex environmental issues surrounding live music.

Dan Chalmers, head of Music EMEA YouTube said: “YouTube is proud to support IMS in bringing together world-leading music pioneers.

“Innovation has always been at the heart of electronic music; forums like IMS are vital to bring us together as an industry to explore how we can collectively innovate and break new ground in the face of an ever evolving technological landscape.”
