Dines built UiPath from a Bucharest startup into a $35 billion IPO, creating an RPA platform now used by 10,800 enterprises and generating $1.3 billion in annual recurring revenue by automating the repetitive work across finance, HR, and IT operations.
Daniel Dines is the Co-Founder and CEO of UiPath, the leading robotic process automation (RPA) platform that enables organizations to automate repetitive business processes using software robots.
Born in Romania, Dines founded UiPath in Bucharest in 2005 before relocating the company's headquarters to New York. UiPath went public in 2021 at a valuation of approximately $35 billion, making it one of the largest enterprise software IPOs of the year. The platform is used by over 10,800 customers including many of the world's largest corporations and government agencies, automating tasks across finance, HR, supply chain, customer service, and IT operations. UiPath generates over $1.3 billion in annual recurring revenue. Dines' vision of a "robot for every person"-where software robots handle tedious, repetitive work so humans can focus on creative and strategic tasks-has resonated with enterprises worldwide. His journey from a Romanian entrepreneur building software tools in Eastern Europe to leading a publicly traded enterprise automation company in New York demonstrates how global talent and ambition can create category-defining American technology companies.
