About the word "Syntillica™"

The idea of bringing expert consultants together to work in an innovative way was the inspiration behind the new word “Syntillica”.
     
“Syn” is modern pre-fix meaning ‘to act together’ whilst ‘tillica’ is the plural of an Anglo-Saxon word (‘til’) meaning ‘something fit for purpose’.

Putting the two together sparked the slogan:

"Creating Capability"
