The Story Behind the Mago Pinecone

When people first see the Mago logo, they often ask the same question: “What does the pinecone represent?” It’s a fair question, and the answer goes much deeper than a design choice. The pinecone is tied to a story that reflects the very heart of Mago’s mission.

The Legend That Inspired Our Symbol

Many are familiar with the traditional story of the Three Magi (Three Wisemen). But few know the legend of a fourth Magus who set out on the same journey to meet the newborn King. Unlike the others, he carried nothing of material value, only a simple pinecone.

Despite its simplicity, the gift was sincere. According to the legend, that humble pinecone miraculously transformed into gold, symbolizing how genuine intention and pure purpose can elevate even the smallest offering.

This message resonates deeply with us.

The pinecone is an ancient symbol of growth, regeneration, clarity, and potential. For Mago, it represents our belief that meaningful transformation can come from simplicity and that even complex challenges can be resolved with a straightforward, intuitive approach.

From Symbolism to Mission

Transforming Hybrid Work Into a Positive Experience

Hybrid work is no longer an emerging trend; it is the foundation of the modern workplace. But for many organizations, the experience has been inconsistent and stressful. From incompatible platforms to limited room systems to uneven meeting experiences between remote and in-room participants, hybrid work has often created friction instead of productivity.

Mago was designed to change that. Just as the pinecone in the story transformed into something greater, our mission is to transform the way people Meet, Present, and Collaborate.

Meet: One Platform, All Your Meetings

Mago brings the power of true platform agnosticism. Teams, Zoom, Google Meet, and Webex can be joined from a single unified interface without switching devices or reconfiguring systems.

This delivers an equitable experience for every participant, regardless of location.

Present: Wireless Sharing Without Friction

Whether online or in person, users can instantly share content wirelessly to the room display, eliminating cables, adapters, and delays.

This is especially critical for effective hybrid collaboration, where seamless content flow keeps everyone aligned.

Collaborate: Beyond the Meeting

Mago elevates creativity with built-in tools for:

• Brainstorming
• Digital whiteboarding
• Visual concept mapping
• AR and Mixed Reality collaboration (no VR headsets required)

But the collaboration doesn’t stop when the meeting ends. All workspaces remain accessible, allowing teams to continue working asynchronously, refining ideas, and contributing on their own schedule, all within the same environment.

The Pinecone, Reimagined

The pinecone reminds us of an essential truth: With the right intention and the right tools, what begins as simple can become extraordinary.

At Mago, we carry that philosophy into every meeting room, classroom, boardroom, and hybrid workspace we support. Our goal is to transform daily collaboration from something complex or stressful into something intuitive, inclusive, and deeply valuable.

Hybrid work is the future. Mago is the platform that helps you thrive.
