Corsica Events

What Corsica Events does

Corsica Events is a Destination Management Company (DMC) headquartered in Ajaccio, Corsica, and operated as the business tourism division of Ollandini Voyages, the leading tour operator on the island. Founded around 2000 after the founders organized a 300-participant convention in Corte, the company serves corporate clients seeking to host congresses (up to 500 participants), seminars (up to 300 participants at partner venues), incentive trips, team-building events, product launches, and gala dinners in Corsica. Its service portfolio spans core MICE offerings plus a set of differentiated experiential modules including Eco-Responsible Events, Digital Detox Experiences, Team-Learning Programs, Exclusive Original Programs, and Local Cultural Immersion activities delivered through a network of Corsican artisans.

The company's underlying technology stack is essentially non-existent as a software platform; the source data explicitly describes the business as "service-based" with "no specific technology platform," and the core competency is operational logistics and curated local knowledge rather than proprietary code. No AI capabilities, APIs, integrations, or mobile applications are present. The company operates under a single Ajaccio office and serves France-domiciled and inbound international corporate clients, primarily via direct enterprise sales and through its parent's distribution network.

Corsica Events generates revenue through professional services fees for customized corporate event packages, with pricing determined per-quote based on group size, event type, duration, accommodation tier, and activity selection. Distribution runs through direct enterprise field sales and reseller channels via Ollandini Voyages, while marketing is conducted through a bilingual French/English website, content marketing, and physical presence at international Corsican events such as the Tour de Corse rally and the Imperial Regattas. The legal entity is SARL Ollandini Agence de Voyages, a private limited company under French law holding €900,000 in stated capital.
