We've linked world-class engineers with top educators to develop solutions that set exciting new standards for classroom technology.\nMimio began in 1997 with a singular philosophy: to make learning more engaging for students, with technology that makes it easier for teachers to do what they do best - teach. We were founded by way of some very creative thinkers at MIT. Using engineering problem/solution methodology, they realized that students were so occupied with furious note-taking, they weren't fully paying attention to their lessons. Then they wondered, \"What if there was a way to obtain the whiteboard notes, formulas, and drawings without having to write everything down?\" Their passion for discovery led them to invent what became the MimioCapture\u2122 tracking system. Students could finally concentrate on each lesson, and obtain the notes afterward.\nAs Mimio grew, we continued to introduce breakthrough innovations that help educators focus more on teaching and students concentrate more on learning. The result has been a long history ofeducational awardsand worldwide recognition.\n\n\nDirect Marketing Manager\nThe Direct Marketing Manager oversees the development and implementation of direct marketing programs to raise the levels of lead acquisition, lead nurturing and qualification, customer retention, cross-selling and upselling.
