HiveLive Platform Behind Online Accounting Community

HiveLive Inc., a publisher of enterprise social-networking platforms, reported Monday that its technology is powering an online community for the American Accounting Association. HiveLive said the association is offering the custom-designed community, called AAACommons, as a place for university professors, researchers and accounting professionals to advance their craft. Specifically, HiveLive noted, the association’s 8,000 members can use the site to share resources, search for colleagues and experts, exchange teaching tips and keep track of industry news and trends. The community, HiveLive said, was built on its LiveConnect platform. HiveLive is a privately held company headquartered in Boulder, Colo.
