Who Imran Savas is
Imran Savas is a British entrepreneur, speaker and activist, and the founder and CEO of Tape UK, a company created to give small businesses accounting, marketing and IT support under one roof.
He launched Tape UK in 2019 with nothing but a vision. As the business grew, he turned down major investment offers to keep it independent and true to its purpose. When COVID hit, he told clients not to pay while the company kept serving them. Today, Tape UK gives 1% of every fee to charity.
His work has been recognised over 25+ times for business, leadership and social impact including Entrepreneur of the Year in both 2024 and 2026. Yet his definition of success has never changed: it isn't what you accumulate, it's the lives you improve.
What sets Imran apart is that he lives the way he leads, on his own terms. He has walked away from deals that clashed with his values and refuses to soften his views to stay comfortable or popular. On politics, faith, racism and government failures, he says what he believes, even on issues most entrepreneurs avoid.
He has spoken out for the people of Palestine, Sudan and Yemen, challenged the government over its treatment of small businesses, and stood firmly against racism and the far right, speaking openly about his experiences as a Muslim in Britain.
That honesty has built him a following of hundreds of thousands including public figures, who follow him not for business tips but because he means what he says and lives by it.
Across social media, stages, podcasts and the press, Imran uses every platform he has not to sell but to motivate, inspire and raise awareness for the causes he believes in.
