Chicago Music Nexus is returning this fall with an expanded vision for empowering electronic music professionals in the Midwest.
The second edition of the summit will take place November 22nd, 2025 at The Joinery in the Windy City Bucktown neighborhood, once again uniting industry leaders, artists, creators and entrepreneurs for a full day of thoughtfully curated programming.
Co-founded by Sherm and Olivia Mancuso, last year's sold out-out inaugural Chicago Music Nexus proved there’s demand for a space dedicated to networking and education in the birthplace of house music.

This year's programming raises the bar with panels such as "Going Global: Your DJ Career Blueprint," offering insights for aspiring touring DJs; "Social Media Secrets for Creators," focused on actionable strategies for creators to grow meaningful fanbases; and "Adapt or Die: The New Economics of Dance Music," a candid discussion of today’s financial realities in the music industry.
The lineup of speakers features Daisy Santow of Wasserman, house music producer and record label founder Ky William, and John Curley, co-founder of ARC Music Festival, among others. New additions to the conference's programming include a 60-second PR pitch makeover led by PGM PR founder Petey Mac and a professional headshot station courtesy of Crystal Lotus Studios.
