Tobun Named Among UK's Most Influential Black Britons in Powerlist 2026

London, UK — October 2025: Powerlist 2026 once again recognises Dr Tevin Tobun among the 100 most influential Black Britons in their annual publication honouring leaders that shape the UK's cultural, social, and economic landscape.

The Powerlist highlights those whose work creates positive change and inspires future generations. Tobun’s continued presence on the list reflects his lasting influence in business, community empowerment, and education.

A Moment of Reflection

"It's an amazing feeling to be named as a Powerlistee for yet another year," said Tobun. "To be named among so many exceptional individuals is incredibly motivating and reminds me why we must keep creating opportunities for people from diverse backgrounds to stand out and thrive within the world of business."

Tobun's consistent inclusion in the Powerlist underscores his commitment to purpose-driven leadership and his belief that success should always create opportunity for others.

Empowering Change

As Founder and CEO of Routd Technology, Tobun built more than a business. Routd is a model for how innovation and social responsibility can coexist. Routd’s smart logistics platform helps essential goods reach schools, hospitals, and communities efficiently, but its broader purpose is about connection, equality, and opportunity.

Tobun’s work through The Tobun Foundation champions social mobility by supporting students from underrepresented backgrounds. His mentorship and scholarship programmes open pathways into higher education and future-focused careers.

Mentorship and Purpose

Tobun serves on the Lloyds Bank Business Advisory Board and The Open University Council, contributing to initiatives that promote inclusive enterprise and accessible learning.

He also chairs Inspirational You, a social enterprise supporting young Black entrepreneurs and professionals. Through these roles, Tobun continues to shape a culture of empowerment into one that values opportunity, fairness, and impact.
