Tobun Shares Insight on Investor Confidence and UK Tech Funding

Dr Tevin Tobun has shared his perspective in a recent feature published by TechRound, examining what the withdrawal of £7.36 billion from the UK stock market ahead of the November Winter Budget could mean for technology startups and scaling businesses.

The article explores how periods of political and economic uncertainty can influence investor behaviour, particularly when confidence weakens in public markets. Tobun notes that this caution often extends into private markets, affecting valuations, funding timelines, and the expectations placed on founders seeking investment.

Drawing on his experience building and scaling multiple businesses, Tobun emphasised the importance of strong fundamentals during uncertain conditions. Clear revenue pathways, genuine customer traction, and disciplined growth strategies become increasingly critical signals for investors when risk appetite tightens.

Across his ventures, including GV Group and Routd Technology, Tobun has maintained a focus on sustainable growth and operational clarity. This approach, he notes, has helped the businesses remain resilient through shifts in investor sentiment and changing market dynamics.

Tobun’s contribution forms part of a wider discussion among industry leaders on how founders can adapt their fundraising strategies and strengthen their businesses during periods of macroeconomic pressure.
