Ziipline’s Jake Stevens named One to Watch in The LDC Top 50 Most Ambitious Business Leaders for 2025
We’re excited to share that Jake Stevens, Co-Founder of Ziipline, has been named ‘One to Watch’ in the LDC Top 50 Most Ambitious Business Leaders for 2025.
The programme, run by LDC (part of Lloyds Banking Group) in partnership with The Times celebrates leaders who are building quickly and making a real mark on their industries.
Out of nearly 700 nominations this year, only a handful were selected for their ambition, momentum and impact. Jake’s inclusion reflects the scale of what Ziipline is already delivering after just two years.
A signal of what’s ahead
Ziipline became a Salesforce Summit Partner in under a year. Since then, we’ve been brought in to lead some of the most complex transformation programmes in the ecosystem. This recognition reflects the momentum behind the business and the intent that’s driving it.
“I’m very humbled to be amongst a group of truly inspiring entrepreneurs. This is a recognition of the whole team’s ambition to deliver outcome obsessed, Salesforce transformation of the highest quality and the impression we’ve made on the market in just two years. Thank you Team Ziipline!”
Jake Stevens, Co-Founder, Ziipline
This recognition is a nod to what’s already been built.
“It’s been eight years since we launched The LDC Top 50, and in that time, we’ve had the honour of meeting some exceptional people. This year has been no different. I’d like to congratulate this year’s Ones to Watch on their success so far. We can’t wait to see what the future has in store for them.”
John Garner, Managing Partner, LDC
