Ross Veitch is the CEO of Wego, which he co-founded in 2005. Wego is the leading online travel app in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA), with more than 100 million app installs across the region.

Wego has headquarters in Singapore and Dubai and is backed by Tiger Global, Ares Management, Square Peg Capital, MBC Group and Arqaam Capital. A pioneer of Asia’s internet industry, Ross launched Yahoo!’s Southeast Asian operations in 1998 and led product development across the region.
