What's in a name?

Much debate has been had over the past 6 months over our name...Zogix.  We are frequently asked what does it mean, where does it come from, does it stand for anything, how do I pronounce it?  However all these questions stem from one thing, people notice our name and it draws comment.  In a world where people are bombarded with new brands and company names, the importance of choosing a name that stands out and sticks should not be underestimated.  So what does it mean and how do you pronounce it?

Zogix is an abbreviation for Zones of Global Innovation Exchange which originates as follows...

Zones...the Zogix application comprises three types of zones that allow members of the network to undertake certain activities.  These are the Private Zone, Community Zones, and Solution Zones...more soon

Global...the power of the Zogix network comes from connecting people around the world who would otherwise not be able to connect and collaborate

Innovation...the aim of the Zogix is to connect people, enterprises and institutions to create new products, services and solutions...in other words open innovation

Exchange...Zogix facilitates the swapping of knowledge, skills and intellectual property to drive innovation      

The Z and X in our name also draw comment and were recommended as two of the most memorable and distinct letters.

How is it pronounced...well that is up to you!
