Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic RDIF has played a key role in fighting the virus in Russia. Working jointly with some of the world’s top institutional investors, we have selected and funded what we believe are the most promising COVID-19 testing systems, drugs and vaccines. RDIF supports the development of Russia’s COVID-19 vaccine by the Gamaleya Center and is investing in mass production of the vaccine by RDIF portfolio companies.
