BMI was on hand at the 13th Annual Billboard Dance Music Summit, held recently at the Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas. Brandon Bakshi, a Writer/Publisher Relations executive from BMI's London office, took part in the "Across the Pond" panel, which was moderated by Music 2 Mix President Eddie Gordon. The panel focused on the state of dance music internationally and presented a frank discussion on today's art of the deal.

Shown at the conference are (back row): Agostino Carollo, Eddie Gordon, Darude, and Kaiser Saucy and Lord Fader of the Loose Cannons; (front row): Richard Bridge, BMI's Brandon Bakshi and Ricky Simmonds.  

Other speakers and panelists included Richard Bridge, A&R Manager, Petrol Records; DJ/ producer Agostino Carollo; artists Darude and the Loose Cannons (Kaiser Saucy and Lord Fader); and Ricky Simmonds, Co- Founder/Director, Audiojelly.com.
