The Man Behind
The Bridge
I arrived in Moscow in the mid-1990s during one of the most transformative periods in Russian history. While others saw uncertainty, I saw extraordinary opportunity — and I stayed.
Over the decades that followed, I built relationships that most business professionals could never access: government ministers, heads of state corporations, industry federation leaders, and senior executives at Russia's most powerful companies.
As President of the Indian Business Council Russia — a role I have held since 2000 — I became the institutional bridge between the two nations' business communities. Every year I organise and attend hundreds of meetings, forums, and high-level delegations connecting Indian enterprises with Russian opportunity.
My work spans sectors — from Textile and Fashion to Oil & Gas, from Metals to Food & Agriculture. What remains constant is my approach: personal relationships, cultural fluency, and genuine commitment to results for both sides.
