Early life and education
[edit]Roman Putin's grandfather, Alexander, was the uncle of the President of Russia, Vladimir Putin.[1] Putin was born in Ryazan, Russia, in 1977.[2][3] He is the son of Igor Putin, a former director of the Master Bank.[4]
Career
[edit]In 2012–2013 he was a non-paid adviser to the governor of Novosibirsk Oblast on social and economic issues.[5] In particular, he proposed and supervised an ambitious project to convert a leading truck repair factory into an assembly plant. He was relieved from his duties when the project failed to materialize,[6] which he attributed to a personal vendetta from the governor.[6][7] Putin remains an adviser on similar matters to the governor of Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug.[8]
Roman Putin is the chairman of Group MRT and co-owner of three other Russian companies: Gazstroiholding, Modernizatsiya Rechnogo Transporta (Modernization of River Transport), and Frantsuzskie Aviatsionnye Technologii (French Aviation Technologies).[3] The second company organizes passenger services on the Moscow River aiming to reduce traffic congestion,[9] while the third one produces autogyros.[10]
Since 2013, Putin has been an independent private investment advisor, providing consultancy for investment projects in Russia. In March 2014, Putin founded his own consulting company named Putin Consulting Ltd.,[11][non-primary source needed] that helps foreign investors realize their investment projects in Russia.[12][non-primary source needed]
