Babak Zandžání (nar. 1974) je iránsky miliardár a podnikateľ. Viedol skupinu Sorinet so sídlom v Spojených arabských emirátoch, jeden z najväčších iránskych konglomerátov. V rokoch 2010 až 2013 pomáhal Iránu predávať ropu napriek západným sankciám, za čo ho EÚ aj USA zaradili na sankčné zoznamy. Koncom roka 2013 ho v Iráne zatkli a obvinili, že zadržal 2,7 miliardy dolárov štátnych peňazí z predaja ropy. V roku 2016 ho súd odsúdil na smrť, v roku 2024 mu trest zmiernili na 20 rokov väzenia. Od roku 2025 verejne vedie konglomerát Dot One a USA ho od januára 2026 sankcionujú za kryptomenové platby Revolučným gardám.
