After taking first prize at both the Centre d'entrepreneurship HEC-Poly-UdeM contest and the 2006 Pierre Péladeau Bursaries,
the young firm Mimetyk Interactive Inc., brainchild of Polytechnique students Alexandre and Nicolas Plouznikoff, continues on
its winning streak by bagging the Technical and Technological Innovation award from the prestigious Québec Entrepreneurship
Contest. In addition to a $10,000 grant, the pair also received the Office Québec-Amériques pour la jeunesse prize, which will
enable them to make a business trip to a destination in the Americas.
Mimetyk Interactive Inc.
Mimetyk Interactive Inc., presently housed at the Centre d'entrepreneurship HEC-Poly-UdeM, developed an innovative advertising
solution based on interactivity. The new program, which lets users interact virtually with ads, has proved more successful in
attracting the public's attention than traditional advertising.
Congratulations, Alexandre and Nicolas!
