Early Life and Career Beginning

Vladislav Doronin was born on November 7, 1962 in Saint Petersberg, Russia. He attended and eventually graduated from Moscow Lomonosov State University.

In 1985 he relocated to Switzerland with less than $250 to his name. Russians were not allowed to leave the country with more than $250. Once in Switzerland he landed a job with financier Marc Rich. He was soon learning the ropes of the commodities trading world, specializing in metals and oil.

The early 1990s were a fertile time for an industrious, hard working Russian with a European pedigree.

In 1991 Vladislav launched his own company which he called Capital Group. Within a few years Capital Group began making major commercial real estate investments in Moscow. One of his first projects was to develop a large office building in Moscow that catered specifically to western clients that were flooding the city. Companies like IBM and Phillip Morris quickly learned that the Capital Group's buildings were the best in Moscow for Western-style office work.

The company eventually grew to control roughly 7 million square meters of mostly "Class A" office, retail and residential real estate.
