Utpal "UV" Vaishnav

I am the founder of Upsquare®. Upsquare is a technology holding company and incubator of independent and integrated companies and startups – a venture builder. Its offices are located in India and Singapore.

At Upsquare, our primary aim is to create incredible human experiences through our businesses, impacting billions of lives globally. Our culture breeds entrepreneurs who solve significant problems through daring, determination, and discipline.

We are not just a tech company, a UX company, or even a solutions company. We are growth producers–a mindset that breeds entrepreneurs who create amazing startups.

We operate in nine business verticals to create world-class products, services, and solutions. I envision a future where AI seamlessly integrates with human intelligence.

Upsquare’s businesses include:

conceptualizing, building, and promoting our microSaaS & SaaS products;
providing venture building, acceleration, and technology advisory services;
supporting technology startups and businesses as an early-stage investor;
joint ventures, mergers & acquisitions;
investing as a Limited Partner in AIFs and other funds.

This is my personal blog where I share my experiences about business and life. My primary aim is to influence every being, humans or otherwise, discover, expand, and operate at their peak potential. My mission is to help the humanity to live passionately, conduct life with laser focus, and lead the path through Grit and Never Stop Hacking attitude. While I am executing my mission, I am living my primary aim. When I am living my primary aim, I am celebrating myself because when my surrounding is operating at peak potential, I feel energized and either I lead them or follow them! Most of my writing revolves around awareness, unconventional thinking, personal growth, entrepreneurship and travel. On occasion, I write about stuff that doesn’t fit neatly into one of these topics. If you like to live an unconventional life full of experimentation, then you might enjoy reading my blog. You can subscribe via RSS or e-mail if you wish so.
