Bidzina Ivanishvili
The billionaire businessman behind the Georgian Dream party.
From his hilltop glass mansion in ancient Tbilisi, he鈥檚 accused of cultivating Georgia鈥檚 shift from the west over the past decade.
And, with his political party鈥檚 recent victory in the parliamentary elections, that trajectory appears set to continue for some time yet.

In this edition of Profile, Mark Coles takes a closer look at the man who keeps animals, collects rare trees, and who spent much of the 1990s in Russia founding companies.
