If you went through a Blavatnik bio, you’d know that Leonard Blavatnik does not lack for accolades. Aside from his degrees, his billion dollar portfolio and his numerous business holdings, though, you’d also learn about the Blavatnik Foundation. It’s the industrialist’s way of making sure that those who follow in his footsteps have an easier time doing so.
Through the Blavatnik Foundaiton, millions have been provided for scholarships and grants that will ensure the future is full of plenty more Len Blavatniks. The man has also made a name for himself through other charities as well that include making sure the poor get fed in Israel and that schools like Cambridge don’t lack for the resources they need as a center of advanced education.
Although we all know Len Blavatnik for the wealthy CEO he is today, it’s important to remember that he was born in the USSR and came from the humblest of beginnings. It was this environment that forged the type of attitude that has helped him become such an economic powerhouse these days. It’s also why he goes out of his way to make sure others receive not just food, but the same opportunities to learn, grow, earn and achieve as he has.
