Company goals Develop interactive teaching technologies that streamline the way teachers work and collaborate. Help teachers reach students with diverse learning styles and unique needs. Help schools, districts, and countries bring affordable interactivity to every classroom. mimio’s beginnings While he was a computer science graduate teaching assistant, Yonald Chery observed a problem in his classes at MIT. Students were more focused on copying whiteboard notes than on understanding the concepts behind them. Chery and his colleagues - William Moyne, Manuel Perez, Matthew Verminski, Andrew Kelley, and Michael Dixon - developed a portable device that attached to any whiteboard, connected to a computer, and digitally stored everything that was written or drawn. The mimio Interactive prototype was born. Recent history In 2006, mimio became part of Newell Rubbermaid, a respected global business leader. Along with sister companies CardScan, DYMO, and Endicia, mimio is part of the division of Newell Rubbermaid that has brought innovative, technology-based tools to education and business environments. Headquartered in Cambridge, MA, mimio sells and distributes its products in over 45 countries.
