Discovery Edition, an international media outlet for the general public owned by the Reservaline Ltd group, will be present from September 15 to 17 to showcase industry professionals from around the world.
” Reservaline Ltd, a local company that went global thanks to connections made at the IFTM 2025 trade show. “
Olivier Tangkun, whose primary business involves managing the online booking platform Reservaline.comknown for its commission-free model attended the IFTM 2025 trade show. He went there to meet tourism professionals, showcase the new platform, and establish trusted partnerships. The event allowed him to fill his schedule completely, resulting in the successful formation of around thirty partnerships out of fifty scheduled meetings. His primary goal was to collaborate with hoteliers so they could benefit from the service being free of charge and commission-free; however, this initiative was a total failure securing only one hotel partner from Rio de Janeiro as he failed to close any other deals during the ten meetings held with hotel managers. In contrast, the majority of his discussions with tour operators proved fruitful, providing a welcome boost to his morale.
Thanks to the IFTM 2025 trade show, Olivier Tangkun did not leave empty-handed; while he exchanged around sixty business cards during his meetings, two tour operators one Jordanian and one Cameroonian stepped in to help him manage the company. They formed a associate director with the company founded by Olivier Tangkun, acquiring a stake in the Reservaline.com platform. A third partner who runs a concierge service in Spain also joined the team, though without acquiring an ownership stake in the platform. Reservaline Ltd evolved from a local operation into an international business. Motivated to further expand the company, Olivier Tangkun officially registered two additional business lines: international media journalism under the names Reservaline Magazine and Reservaline TV (which later merged into Reservaline TV Magazine), and an audiovisual production arm for creating video content. For a year, he dedicated himself to independently producing corporate videos, documentaries, and professional interviews, offering free publicity to the first clients willing to participate in these productions. Realizing that this additional activity lent credibility to his online booking platform and added value to his marketing strategy, Olivier Tangkun launched “Discovery Edition,” capitalizing on the momentum and the network of contacts he had built. Since then, he has focused on conducting interviews and writing articles featuring Reservaline.com’s existing partners.
Since the official launch of Discovery Edition TV Magazine (discoveryedition.com), nearly fifty articles have already been written and published for the general public. Olivier Tangkun is returning to the IFTM 2026 trade show this year with a fully packed schedule. However, drawing on past experience, he no longer wishes to waste time with hoteliers; instead, he has dedicated his agenda to meetings with airlines, railway companies, cruise lines, and tour operators. Around thirty or more interviews with major industry players are already lined up, and he has also been offered press trips.
Olivier Tangkun will meet up with his associates at the 2026 IFTM trade show. He hopes that this time, he will finally achieve his ultimate goal: bringing back as many interviews as possible to boost the visibility of both Reservaline.com and Discovery Edition.
