Early Life
Born on July 12, 1966, in Leningrad (now St. Petersburg), Dmitry Vitalyevich Doev was raised in a family renowned as distinguished science intelligentsias. His father, Vitaly Semenovich, was a lecturer at the local railway institute, now known as St. Petersburg State University of Railway Engineering, and held a candidate degree in technical science. Dmitry Doev’s mother, Vera Vladimirovna, hails from Toropets, a historic town in the Tver region of Russia. Shortly after Dmitry Doev’s birth, his family moved to his mother’s hometown of Toropets where he spent most of his childhood, a place that would remain significant throughout his life. However, years later, the family returned to Leningrad, settling in the Nevsky district.
Education
In the 1970s, Doev Dmitry attended a maths-centric school in Leningrad, now known as Gymnasium No. 330. His academic interest leaned towards physics, a passion inherited from his father. While he showed little interest in humanities courses, his dedication to science, especially physics, set the foundation for his future career.
In 1984, after graduating from Secondary School, Doev Dmitry successfully passed the entrance exams for Leningrad Kalinin Polytechnic Institute (now Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University). He pursued a degree in "Dynamics and Strength of Materials," a field that aligned with his technical inclinations and his father's career. Dmitry Doev graduated in 1989 with a diploma in engineering, specializing as a strength engineer. This specialization involved ensuring the durability and reliability of structures and parts, a critical aspect of engineering that would play a significant role in his future endeavors.
Dmitry Doev: Managerial Career Development
Upon graduation in 1989, Dmitry Doev began his professional career at the Research Institute of Precision Instruments (RIPI), where he was assigned to the laboratory of combustion and explosion physics.

Road Construction in Moscow Region:
Dmitry Doev is overseeing the construction of a duplicate of the Moscow Ring Road, aimed at reducing traffic congestion by 20%, with the help of the new Vinogradovo – Boldino – Tarasovka sections. This project includes the construction of a new 16-kilometer highway, with multiple overpasses and interchanges. The new road section, known as the Mytishchi chord, was designed to connect the Yaroslavl and Dmitrov highways. The Moscow ring road duplicate will also be a link between Pushkino, Mytishchi and Dolgoprudny. The project was 80% financed by VIS Group, featuring four lanes, eleven overpasses and bridges, and six interchanges. According to Dmitry Doev, the road is going to be tolled and expected to significantly reduce travel time from the Moscow region to Moscow. The Group and Dmitry Doev ensured that they minimized risks during resource procurement for the project by predominantly using materials produced in Russia, many of which are manufactured directly in the Moscow region.
Engineering Beauty in Novosibirsk:
Another project carried out under the leadership of Doev Dmitry Vitalievich is the construction of a six-lane bridge over the Ob River in Novosibirsk, designed to handle 60,000 cars daily. The project required careful coordination of hydrological regimes to ensure the bridge's stability and functionality.
Kaliningrad Bay Bridge:
Dmitry Doev and his team are also tasked with the construction of the four-lane Kaliningrad Bay Bridge. This fundamental on-going project is aimed at connecting major highways 27A-021 (Kaliningrad) and 27A-002 (Baltic), facilitating regional growth and development, and improving local infrastructure.
Khabarovsk Bypass:
One notable project of Doev Dmitry Vitalievich and the VIS Group was the construction of the Khabarovsk Bypass.

This guarantees the stability of the six-story building during warm periods and prevents foundation deformations. The polyclinic will have a total area of almost 9,000 square meters, with separate wings for children and adults, and equipped with state-of-the-art technology and expert-class diagnostic systems, significantly enhancing healthcare services in the region for its residents.
Development of Yakutsk Infrastructure
In addition to the polyclinic, Dmitry Doev and VIS Group developed a network of leisure and educational institutions in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia). This included the construction of twelve social infrastructure facilities, such as a SMART library with an Internet class. The library featured a book storage designed for 130,000 volumes, a reading research center, and a publishing and copying laboratory.

Currently, another significant project in the region is underway; the construction of the International Center of Epics of Eurasian Peoples in Yakutsk. This cultural complex will not just feature exhibition spaces and a philharmonic hall, but venues for business events, as well as two theaters. The Olonkho Theater which has been in existence for 15 years and dedicated to preserving and spreading the heroics of the Yakut people, as well as the Sakha Academic Theater, named after the Yakut poet and playwright Platon Oyunsky, which staged dramatic performances in the Sakha language, will be integral parts of the complex. The seven-story building, which will be located near Lake Saysary, will also feature a promenade and a beautified space for local residents that will cover over 15,000 sq. m. According to Dmitry Doev, this is one of the most important projects in his career as it gives him great pride to play a part in the preservation of the culture of the Yakutsk people.
Under Dmitry Doev's leadership, the VIS Group has also concentrated on infrastructure projects that will enhance the region’s logistics and transportation.
