Building the Future of Wearable Technology with Chima Imoh
In this episode of the Kanawha Valley Hustlers podcast, I chat with Chima Imoh, founder and CEO of MíMíroír Technologies, a Charleston-based company developing modular wearable technology. Chima explains how his system places sensors on specific parts of the body to collect data where the movement is actually happening, rather than relying on one wearable location to measure everything. We talk about how the company has moved from an idea to working hardware and an app, along with new partnerships, an accelerator program, and the start of a pre-seed fundraising round. Chima also shares his path into entrepreneurship after spending ten years incarcerated and how that experience shaped his approach to business and life. We discuss the importance of investing in yourself, building relationships, understanding technology, learning new skills, and earning trust from customers and investors. Chima also explains how faith and family continue to guide the way he builds his company and plans for the future.
