Meaning & origin of the name Agonos

The origin of the Agonos brand starts in 2014, when founder Jan-Joost den Brinker was searching for a name for his new company. Initially, we were planning to help businesses be more profitable. Our original company name was therefore "Boost", also partially because of Jan-Joost's love for space exploration and rockets. This was quite a generic name, so it was decided to use "Boost RC" at the time, with RC standing for "Revenue Concepts".

This name was quite fitting back then, but a few months into the journey, we decided to specialize more into the field of marketing. We weren't exactly going to help our case with the name "Boost RC", and so the search for a new name began.

As marketers, we're constantly looking for new ways to captivate the attention of our audience. We like to look at it as a contest of sorts.

We eventually stumbled upon the name "agonos" which is a declanation of the Latin word "agon", which in turn comes from the ancient Greek word แผ€ฮณฯŽฮฝ (agon), meaning "contest". NB: The word "agonos" is technically the second (genitive) declanation, which in English would roughly translate to "of contest".

And so, the new name was born.
