Pavel Khodorkovsky

Pavel Khodorkovsky is the president of the Institute of Modern Russia, an organization he founded to continue the work his father Mikhail Khodorkovsky began through the Open Russia Foundation. Since his father’s arrest in 2003, Khodorkovsky has been unable to return to Russia for fear of political persecution and actions against him. Khodorkovsky holds a business administration degree from Babson College. In 2011[1]

Pavel Khodorkovskiy is a co-founder of Enertiv Inc., which makes hardware and software to help buildings consume less energy. The company closed on a $700,000 seed investment round, in late Jul 2014. Pavel, who had moved to the U.S. to attend college shortly before his father’s imprisonment, remained in the U.S., graduated, started working and has a family. The younger Khodorkovskiy says that he has spent less time at the foundation recently to focus on his startup. Part of his job is flying around the country and running around New York City installing Enertiv’s hardware devices in customer locations like schools and office buildings. Pavel said his father, who earlier invested in the company as part of a $550,000 friends-and-family round, urges him to think bigger as he develops his business. [2]
