Praxiem – What’s in the Name
By Walter Knitl – CEO at Praxiem
At Praxiem we help turn ideas into products through practical actions and the application of our knowledge and real-world experience in product management, high-tech development and commercial management. We are the practice or a shop, a virtual emporium, our clients come to for both guidance on product realization and for hands-on actions and deliverables.
Our name borrows from two words that reflect what we are and what we do – praxis and emporium.
The first part praxi comes from praxis, a word with several related meanings – translating ideas into action; practical application or exercise of a branch of learning; application or use of knowledge or skills; the practice and practical side of a profession or field of study; deed, act, action; a practice.
The second part em and iem come from the first part of emporium (em) and strengthened by rhyming with the last part (ium). Emporium has several related meanings – a marketplace; a place of business; a shop or retail store selling a variety of items; a commercial center.
Praxiem is a practice where you can shop to turn ideas into practical actions and results, and ultimately successful products, services, and policies.
