What does the name Concursive conjure up for you?
Concursive is a made up name derived from a real but obscure word, "Concursion." Concursion is a synonym for "Fusion" and literally means a "running together of people, things and ideas." Words like "Concourse," "Concurrent" and "Concur" are all derived from this same Latin root: con carre, to run together. There is also an implication of the whole being greater than the sum of its parts. So for me, and for any others who care to investigate, Concursive will conjure the notion of many elements coming together to create something powerful. I think that describes the mission of our company very well. We are also making use of the term "Concourse" for our products. Today, we are launching ConcourseSuite 5.0. In short order, we will be announcing other products and initiatives under the "Concourse" umbrella. A Concourse is a place where people meet and connections are made. As discussed above, in today's wired world, those are essential components for successful business. We think our new naming scheme really captures this whole interconnected, mashed up, always on world that is the signature feature of our age.
