Robin Khuda has an estimated net worth of $2 billion, according to Forbes Real-Time Billionaires, Robin Khuda profile (figures as of October 20, 2026). That is down from a peak of $2.1 billion.
Robin Khuda is an Australian tech entrepreneur best known for founding AirTrunk, a data centre company. He started the business in 2015 and built it into a major provider across the Asia-Pacific and the Middle East. AirTrunk later opened sites in Australia, Hong Kong, Japan, Malaysia, Saudi Arabia, and Singapore. Before that, Khuda held leadership jobs at PIPE Networks, Fujitsu, and SingTel Optus, giving him deep experience in telecoms and cloud infrastructure.
His wealth comes mainly from data centers. AirTrunk was acquired in 2024 in a $16 billion deal by a consortium led by Blackstone and Canada Pension Plan Investment Board, and Khuda kept a small stake. He also founded Ondas, a luxury property developer with projects in Sydney and Melbourne. Forbes put his net worth at $2 billion on its real-time billionaires tracker as of October 20, 2026. He also has an MBA from the University of Manchester.
How Robin Khuda built his fortune
Khuda made his name in digital infrastructure. After leadership roles at PIPE Networks, Fujitsu, and SingTel Optus, he launched AirTrunk in 2015. The company focused on large data centres and expanded across the Asia-Pacific and the Middle East. Its network grew into Australia, Hong Kong, Japan, Malaysia, Saudi Arabia, and Singapore. That footprint turned AirTrunk into the business most closely tied to his fortune.
A big money moment came in 2024, when AirTrunk was acquired in a $16 billion transaction by a consortium led by Blackstone and Canada Pension Plan Investment Board. Khuda still holds a small but valuable stake, so his wealth is not only tied to the sale itself. He also founded Ondas, a luxury property developer with upscale projects in Sydney and Melbourne, giving him another business interest outside technology.
Forbes net worth and other money milestones
Forbes estimated Khuda's fortune at $2.1 billion on the 2026 World's Billionaires List. That valuation came after AirTrunk had already become a major data centre provider and after the 2024 sale reshaped ownership of the company. Because he retained a stake, his wealth remained connected to the business even after the transaction. His standing sits in Technology, but the asset behind it is data centers.
Khuda has also put some of that wealth into philanthropy. In 2025, he donated A$100 million ($66 million) to the University of Sydney for a 20-year STEM program for female students. Forbes' real-time tracker showed him at $2 billion as of October 20, 2026. That keeps the focus on the same core source of wealth: the value created by AirTrunk and his continuing ownership interest after the deal.
