Details of the second ever International Music Summit have been announced. As previously reported, the Ibiza-based IMS aims to bring together leading names from across the dance music industry to share, network and debate.

Elsewhere, Richie Hawtin will take part in a one-to-one interview with IMS co-creator Ben Turner. Confirming his involvement, Hawtin told CMU: "I heard great reports about the first IMS, and as this is a critical time for the industry and the world at large, this intimate gathering feels more important now than ever before. I am excited to share my experiences and vision for the future with the leaders of the genre".
