New name retires the Gen 4 and MCS labels to better reflect where Mersive is steering collaboration next.

DENVER, Oct. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Mersive Technologies today announced that its collaboration platform, previously known as Gen 4 and the Mersive Collaboration Suite (MCS), is now Mersive Polaris. Its website and visual identity have been updated to match.

Mersive Solstice defined its category, showing that a room could share wirelessly, simply and reliably. But what rooms are asked to do has changed. Meetings now span more platforms, more networks and more devices than any one room was designed for.

Answering that took more than new hardware. Drawing on fourteen years of deployments and feedback from IT and AV teams, Mersive rebuilt the platform with software at its core, so rooms keep improving long after install day.

“Gen 4” made that sound like the next step in a hardware sequence. It isn’t. It’s built for the landscape rooms work in now, and it needed its own name.

Every generation of this line has looked up: Mersive Sol in 2012, then Solstice Gen 1 in 2013, Gen 2 in 2015, Gen 2i in 2017 and Gen 3 in 2019. While a solstice marks a turning point, Polaris is the fixed point the northern sky turns around, the star navigators steer by, and the role Mersive intends to play in customers’ spaces for the next decade.

“Solstice showed the market what wireless collaboration could be,” said Damian Blazy, CEO of Mersive. “Calling what came next a fourth generation undersold it.”

“Polaris isn’t the next Solstice with a new label,” said Ryan Lee, Vice President of Product at Mersive. “It’s a different way of building, and the name signals that.”

Mersive Polaris includes Polaris Essentials, Polaris Pro and Polaris Host. Gen 4 and MCS customers are using the same products, now under the Polaris name.

Solstice Gen 3 is supported into 2029, with a mapped transition path and a trade-in program. It runs side by side with Polaris, so customers can upgrade room by room at their own pace.
