Over the weekend, Cathie Wood, founder and CEO of ARK Invest, congratulated edge computing startup Mimik after a senior Nvidia Corporation NVDA executive voiced strong support for the company during the GTC 2025 conference.
What Happened: "High praise for mimik from @Nvidia. Congratulations, @Fayarjomandi!" Wood wrote on X, formerly Twitter, sharing a post by Mimik CEO Fay Arjomandi.
Wood is also a member of Mimik's board of directors and has invested in the company.
In the video shared by Arjomandi, Les Karpas, Developer Global Account Manager at Nvidia, praised Mimik's decentralized agent-based architecture.
"I discovered Mimik sometime last year and was very impressed with their peer-to-peer mesh network. It's a huge enabler for computer vision and edge-based AI," Karpas said. "It allows different devices to cooperate with each other … I'm very bullish on Mimik's future."
Karpas highlighted Mimik's Agentix-native mesh as a breakthrough for real-time AI collaboration across endpoint devices, enabling a distributed, device-first approach to computing.

Why It Matters: Founded in Vancouver, Mimik Technology is pioneering a shift away from centralized cloud computing by enabling data processing directly at the edge — closer to where data is generated.
This approach reduces latency, improves privacy, and enables real-time AI decision-making without relying heavily on cloud infrastructure.
Mimik's platform supports interoperability across devices regardless of their operating systems, offering a modular framework for developers to deploy secure, low-latency applications.
The company raised $14.3 million in Series A funding in 2021, with Wood and other institutional investors participating.
