ADE 2014: ADE Pro to feature key players such as Danny Howard and Paul Oakenfold

Danny Howard, the most popular dance and electronic music DJ on the UK's Radio 1, will be taking part in the Global Club Debate, Paul Oakenfold will be joining the illustrious list of panelists invited on to the Gamechangers panel, and SFX chief marketing officer Chris Stephenson will be offering advice about how to get the most from brand partnerships on the How to Connect with Brands panel.

Danny Howard is regarded as a key tastemaker with his Dance Anthems show on Radio 1 drawing 1.8 million listeners every weekend, on top of that he makes a weekly show for the US on SiriusXM, and compiles a monthly podcast for British Airways flights. He is also a highly successful club DJ who plays regularly at Amnesia, Privelege and Space on Ibiza, as well as Global Gathering, Gatecrasher, Ministry of Sound, Pacha NYC, Creamfields and many more. He'll be joining Sunburn's Shailendra Singh and the legendary Disco Donny Estopinal on the Global Club Debate, which takes place on Friday afternoon. 

Over the previous two years Gamechangers has featured a selection of exceptional people who have made an outstanding contribution to electronic music and electronic music culture, including Daniel Miller, Dave 'midi' Smith, Nile Rodgers and Giorgio Moroder. This year we're delighted to be able to say that the status of the inviteess is every bit as stellar, with Daniel Havers of Native Instruments, the company that revolutionised the DJ booth, legendary genre-bending producer Arthur Baker, as well as another much loved genre-masher and ground breaking crossover specialist in the form of Perfecto Records founder Paul Oakenfold, who also happens to be one of the original London-based acid house pioneers.

And finally, if you want to know how best to connect and form meaningful partnerships with brands, we've assembled an A-List team of experts to share their experience of brand partnerships on the How to Connect with Brands panel. Taking part is Chris Stephenson, chief marketing officer of SFX Entertainment and head of FX1, SFX's in-house creative agency. He'll be joined by lawyer and brand specialist Ed Shapiro, Bobby Simms of Popshop who has worked with several major brands including energy drink Burn, Aline Clavellina Gonzalez of Barcel, the entertainment and marketing arm of global food giant Grupo Bimbo, and ex-Beatport CEO Matthew Adell.
