His accomplishments include securing over $125M in an oversubscribed financing round from marquee investors including DCVC, NEA, Softbank and Future Ventures, signing a major global OEM as a customer, creating a new functional prototype that is 50x higher performing than conventional sensors and maturing Mythic’s AI SDK on its APUs (Analog Processing Units) to be on par with the leading GPU SDKs. Mythic is now actively expanding its presence in Europe.
