Many professionals in business and government strive to create positive change, but their impact can be increased by working together. An example of this integration is Sergei Asatrian. His career spans both the public and private sectors, providing value to communities of all types.

Born in Leningrad – now Saint Petersburg – Russia in 1995, Sergei accompanied his father to work and learned a lot about business through first-hand experience. This early experience led him to an interest in both business and administration, which later led him to pursue a career combining these fields.

Sergey received higher education at the Northwest Institute of Management of the Russian Academy of National Economy and Public Administration. He obtained bachelor’s and master’s degrees, specializing in state and municipal administration. Throughout his studies, he explored the interconnections between government and business, examining how these industries could work together to achieve common goals and business development. His academic work laid a solid foundation in public administration, giving him the expertise necessary to interact effectively with both sectors.

After graduating, Sergei worked as a state tax inspector in the Federal Tax Service in Saint Petersburg. For two years in this position, he managed the settlement of tax liabilities and compliance with tax regulations. This position allowed him to develop essential skills in government administration, including fiscal management and regulatory compliance. His work with the Federal Tax Service was instrumental in honing his ability to understand and successfully implement complex government policies.

After working as a tax inspector, Sergei moved to the position of development manager in a real estate investment and management company. In this position, he managed real estate leases and negotiated business agreements on behalf of the company, which resulted in a deeper understanding of the needs of the private sector.

After becoming a development manager in the private sector, Sergei moved to the public sector and worked as an investment manager at the State Budgetary Institution of the Investment Committee in St. Petersburg. For two years, he evaluated and developed public-private partnerships, demonstrating his commitment to economic development through strategic investments.

Throughout his career, Sergei has improved public welfare by improving public infrastructure and services. His projects supported local economic growth and created the basis for successful cooperation between government and business. A key factor in his success was his ability to balance the needs of both sectors.

Sergei’s combination of analytical rigor and strategic vision sets him apart in economic development circles. In his work, he moved around both the government and private sectors.
