What Eventiz Media Group does
Eventiz Media Group is a Paris-based, privately held B2B media company serving the French and broader European tourism and business travel industries. The group operates three specialized media brands — L'Echo touristique (the reference French tourism trade publication since 1934), DéplacementsPros.com (French business travel media, since 2009), and Travolution (international TravelTech media, since 2004) — providing daily industry news, analysis, rankings, and newsletters to tourism professionals. Headquartered at 12 rue du Helder in Paris, the company runs three business poles: specialized B2B publishing, a portfolio of more than 15 annual industry events (conferences, awards ceremonies, VIP dinners, eductours, trade exhibitions, and the TravelTech Hub at VivaTech), and influence/B2B networking services delivered through an Eventiz community membership program.
Revenue is generated across four streams: event sponsorship and exhibition packages sold in tiers (Official Partner, Partner, Supporter) across flagship events; advertising and sponsored content across the three media brands; paid conference and networking event revenue (TOTEC, Travel d'Or, Net Managers, Future of Business Travel, Dîners Konectés, VIP dinners, etc.); and a community membership program that monetizes through premium services and event access. The customer base is enterprise-tier across the tourism value chain — airlines (Air France), hospitality (Accor, Club Med, Pierre & Vacances Center Parcs, Disneyland Paris, MSC Cruises), rail (SNCF), travel management (Amex GBT), technology (Navan, Travelsoft, Worldpay, FLOA), and tourism boards — with sponsorship packages priced on a quote basis tied to speaking slots, advertising inclusions, and visibility benefits. The 2022 integration of Konect Agency expanded the B2B travel-agent event channel, and the 2025 TravelTech Hub at VivaTech opened a dedicated distribution surface into the European technology innovation ecosystem.
