Crest Africa Announces Power 100: Showcasing Influential African Entrepreneurs Redefining Success Across the UK


 
Crest Africa has announced the Power 100 list for November 2025, celebrating the most influential African entrepreneurs whose work continues to transform industries and redefine success across the United Kingdom. This latest recognition highlights the growing influence of African business leaders within the global marketplace.
Crest Africa is a storytelling platform dedicated to showcasing African innovation, leadership, and excellence. Through its consistent recognition programs, it has become a credible voice amplifying those who are shaping Africa’s present and future. Its Leaders Shaping Africa in 2025 list in May and Top 50 Voices in African Tech 2025 in June both captured the spirit of progress and transformation, and the Power 100 extends that legacy into the vibrant UK entrepreneurial ecosystem.

 
In the context of African influence abroad, the Power 100 serves as a crucial benchmark of representation and impact. It acknowledges entrepreneurs who have built thriving ventures in competitive markets, using creativity, cultural identity, and determination to drive growth. The list not only celebrates success stories but also documents the resilience that defines the African experience across global spaces.
Notable figures on the list include Yinka Ilori, award-winning designer and storyteller; Rene Carayol, leadership expert; Nneka Abulokwe OBE, trailblazer in digital transformation and governance; and Rukayat Alabi-Oyelayo, founder of RKY Group, empowering professionals and entrepreneurs through coaching and business development. Each of them represents a facet of African brilliance shaping the UK’s social and economic landscape.

 
Beyond individual accomplishments, the Power 100 underscores the collective strength of African communities abroad. These entrepreneurs are not just building companies; they are creating ecosystems that empower others to dream, learn, and succeed. Through mentorship, collaboration, and philanthropy, they are paving pathways for future generations while demonstrating that African success stories can thrive anywhere in the world.

 
The Power 100 also reflects the evolution of African enterprise from survival-driven initiatives to innovation-led empires. From sustainable fashion to fintech and media, the honorees represent a new generation of thinkers who merge creativity with commerce to drive sustainable impact. Their work challenges outdated narratives about African potential, proving that global leadership can be rooted in heritage and powered by modern vision.
As Crest Africa continues to spotlight excellence, it reaffirms its commitment to shaping a global understanding of African achievement. The editorial team behind this year’s selection invested time in studying measurable outcomes, brand influence, and community contributions to ensure each honoree represents the highest standard of leadership and authenticity.

 
The Power 100 stands as a reminder that African entrepreneurs are global leaders shaping industries and rewriting narratives. It proves that success is not only about profit but also about influence, community, and purpose. These entrepreneurs remind the world that African talent is limitless and its impact immeasurable.
Readers can visit the Crest Africa website to explore the full Power 100 list, discover the honorees, and learn about the extraordinary journeys defining African excellence in the United Kingdom.
