Mimic Joins Tomorrow Street’s Scaleup X Programme as a Strategic Partner

Mimic, a purpose-built ransomware defense platform, is proud to announce its selection as a partner in the Tomorrow Street Scaleup X Programme.

Mimc selected to join Vodafone's innovation centre, Tomorrow Street: ScaleupX programme
The appointment highlights Mimic’s role in advancing enterprise cyber resilience at a time when ransomware remains one of the most urgent threats facing global organizations.
Tomorrow Street, a joint venture between Vodafone and Luxembourg’s Technoport, identifies and accelerates scaleups that deliver transformative solutions to enterprise and government customers. Mimic now joins the Cohort 2025 Scaleup X group, which focuses on pioneering technologies in security, identity, and encryption.


Why Ransomware Defense Matters
The ransomware threat is more severe than ever. Recent findings reveal:

  • A 2025 global survey of 3,400 organizations across 17 countries reported widespread ransomware incidents, with many businesses experiencing at least one major attack in the past year (Sophos, 2025).
  • The average cost of recovery has surged to $5.5–6 million per incident, including ransom payments, downtime, and reputational damage (Purplesec, 2025).
  • The worldwide financial toll from ransomware is projected to hit $57 billion annually in 2025 (Cybersecurity Ventures, 2025).
  • In the first half of 2025, ransomware recovery costs rose 17% year over year, according to insurance and cyber risk data (Resilience, 2025).
  • Nearly 46% of organizations that suffered an attack ultimately paid the ransom, highlighting the persistent gap in effective defenses (Sophos 2025 via ApexTech).
Mimic directly addresses these realities by providing organizations with the ability to withstand and rapidly recover from advanced ransomware campaigns that bypass conventional security controls.

How Mimic Strengthens Scaleup X


Unlike traditional endpoint detection or monitoring tools, Mimic is engineered to guarantee operational resilience. The platform ensures business-critical workloads remain secure and recoverable through:
Ransomware Interruption: Blocks attacks at runtime using proven “known good” execution methods.
  • Application Immutability: Prevents malicious alteration or encryption of vital applications.
  • Forensic Assurance: Creates immutable evidence trails to simplify compliance and auditing.
  • Seamless Integration: Embeds into existing IT and security operations without disruption.

Industry Use Cases

Mimic’s approach is particularly valuable for organizations operating in high-risk and regulated environments:
  • Ransomware Recovery for financial services and healthcare providers.
  • Change Control & AI Governance for DevOps pipelines in regulated industries.
  • Forensic Readiness for logistics, energy, and critical infrastructure sectors.
Through Tomorrow Street, Mimic will broaden its reach within Vodafone’s global enterprise customer base, empowering organizations to manage the financial, regulatory, and reputational risks tied to ransomware.

Leadership Perspective:


“Becoming part of Tomorrow Street’s Scaleup X Programme is a strategic milestone for Mimic. Having led Vodafone UK’s technology operations, I’ve seen the complexity of defending global networks and the consequences of ransomware first-hand. Mimic was created to deliver assured resilience when organizations need it most, and this partnership gives us the reach to bring that protection to enterprises worldwide.”- Chris Burke, Chief Operating Officer at Mimic and former CTO of Vodafone UK

Looking Ahead


As ransomware attacks grow more sophisticated and costly, enterprises must pivot from prevention-only strategies to solutions that assure continuity. Backed by Tomorrow Street, Mimic will continue to expand globally, delivering immutability, compliance-ready forensics, and reliable recovery for the industries most at risk.
