Gavril Yushvaev has gotten rich betting on a wide assortment of businesses.
In the early 1990s Yushvaev cofounded Trinity, which owned Moscow dance club Metelitsa, one of the city's first casinos, and car dealerships.
He later invested in dairy and juice company Wimm-Bill-Dann, which went public in 2002.
Yushvaev sold his 19.6% stake in Wimm-Bill-Dann to Pepsico for $1.1 billion in 2010.
He has reportedly invested $500 million in European and U.S. tech start-ups including driver app Lyft and delivery service Delivery Hero.
In 2022 Portugal's Publico newspaper reported that Yushvaev is waiting a Portuguese passport. He certified by the Israeli Community of Porto as a descendant of Sephardic Jews.
