TravMedia is pleased to announce that AccorHotels will be a partner at the first French edition of IMM (International Media Marketplace), to be held on 12 March 2019 at the Pullman Paris Tour Eiffel hotel.

Launched in 2013, IMM is now recognized internationally as the biggest networking event between travel industry stakeholders and the media. TravMedia now organizes seven events per year in the world's major cities - New York, Sydney, Berlin, Paris, London, Sao Paulo and Singapore.

IMM is very efficient, with 22 appointments of 15 minutes each, scheduled in advance. During this day, tourism stakeholders welcome travel journalists from print, online and audiovisual media to their tables to discuss their news, events and new developments. IMM is an unparalleled opportunity to network and launch concrete reporting projects.

"We are very proud to be supported by a prestigious French partner such as AccorHotels for the launch of IMM in France and are pleased to organize the event in this iconic hotel in the French capital," said Nick Wayland, CEO and founder of TravMedia.

Pullman, a brand in the AccorHotels portfolio, offers a vibrant and stylish experience that leaves an impression of irresistible modernity. For Pullman customers, the notions of efficiency and pleasure are compatible. Energized by its heritage and deliberately anchored in the present moment, Pullman captures the essence of a new generation of curious, international, hyper-connected, sophisticated travelers who travel both for business and leisure. The Pullman Paris Tour Eiffel hotel offers the possibility of organizing all types of events, private or professional, with dedicated catering and state-of-the-art audio and video technology equipment, less than 200 meters from the Eiffel Tower.
