Basically, same raison d'etre as that of Julia.

The design and intellectual heritage of Julia and Mojo couldn't be more different though. Mojo is a Swift/Rust style language from industry veterans, Julia is a Lisp built to make academics write faster code.
Completely true, but Mojo approaches the problem from a different angle. Where Julia aims to blend fast and slow code seamlessly, Mojo's solution is to have a set of opt-in semantics that ensure fast code.
