UIEvolution is a software company based in Bellevue, Washington. It was founded by Satoshi Nakajima in August 2000, after thirteen and half years of his work at Microsoft where he had been a software architect for Windows 95/98 and Internet Explorer 3.0/4.0. In March 2004 UIEvolution was acquired by Square Enix for $58 million.

Before joining Microsoft, where the UIEvolution CEO Satoshi Nakajima had been one of the top authors of new patents, he worked and studied in Japan. He was a researcher at NTT Labs, and worked at Microsoft's Japanese subsidiary. He holds an electrical engineering degree from Waseda University in Tokyo. When Brad Silverberg and a few other executives from Microsoft, together with a couple people from AT&T Wireless, founded Ignition (venture capital company), Satoshi Nakajima joined Ignition as a partner but with the full intention of starting a company from there. After about eight months in Ignition, he used its fundings to form UIEvolution.

UIEvolution makes software for mobile phones. The software is based on a platform-independent middleware that allows UIEvolution to port its application from one mobile platform to another.

Some of the applications developed by UIEvolution include: For six years, UIEvolution has developed and deployed mobile data applications and content for the most popular consumer brands, including Disney, ESPN, and MySpace. Our powerful cross-platform technology enables content and service providers to create dynamic user experiences for subscribers worldwide on virtually any device and any network.

UIEvolution has a rich content management application, with customer portals, and MVNO solutions. Service providers such as Mobile ESPN, KDDI, and OnDemand TV use UIEvolution.
