Educated in Ukraine as a Russian & English Teacher and Educational Psychologist, in 1992 Arthur moved to the UK where he has found his new home and turned his passion for Public Relations into a lifetime career.

After gaining management experiences at various international media, training, and events companies, in 2003 Arthur established Advantix Limited – an international firm specialising in organising events and managing communication projects for Natural Resources and Capital Markets. Headquartered in the UK, Advantix Ltd has subsidiaries in Russia and Kazakhstan. In 2004 Advantix established MINEX Forum – a trademark registered events and networking platform aimed at promoting mining development across the Eurasian continent. Presently MINEX Forum network connects over 50,000 people whose professional interests are aligned with mining and exploration in Russia, Central Asia, and Europe.

Arthur believes that many of today’s issues are the result of misunderstanding and lack of leadership which can be resolved by targeted communications, education, and thinking outside the box. These principles have been successfully implemented at various events and projects undertaken by Advantix Ltd in the past 17 years.
