Adding to the tropical narrative, Yorker DMC—Maldives destination specialists—joined the event, represented by Mr. Sanjiv Gosain (CEO) and Mr. Ashish Lamba (Product Manager), offering in-depth insights and expertise that enriched the overall experience.
The event not only spotlighted the resorts themselves but also offered travel partners a deeper look into the inspiring journey of The Cocoon Collection Maldives. The group has a strong-rooted legacy in the Maldives and Indian Ocean and is known for its authentic connection to the region.
What truly resonated with the audience was the entrepreneurial story behind the brand—a transformation from successful tour operators to passionate hoteliers. This unique background allows the owners to truly understand the nuances of the travel industry and relate deeply with travel trade professionals, making them trusted and admired partners in the region.
