Chief Executive Officer

Deepesh Trivedi

Deepesh became CEO of UIB in May 2024 after serving on its Board. He has spent more than 17 years in global messaging. He joined Meta early in London, then worked in Japan and Singapore, where he helped grow advertising revenue across EMEA and APAC.

He was WhatsApp's first hire in Singapore and the first member of its Business team. He helped build the monetisation business now known as Business Messaging, taking it from zero to nine-figure annual revenue in five years.

At UIB he is focused on the fast-growing white-label omnichannel AI market. He works with telecoms, banks and governments, and with UIB's platform partners Meta, Google and TikTok. Under his leadership UIB doubled revenue in 2025, grew tenfold into 2026, upgraded to Meta Select partner and graduated from Google's AI accelerator.

Board of Directors

Governance built for the long run: a founder who owns the IP, a CEO who scaled global business messaging, and a General Counsel who has run corporate legal for international IT conglomerates. The depth clients, partners and acquirers look for.
