Founder profile
Evgeny Skigin
Educated first at Institut auf dem Rosenberg in Switzerland and later at Bond University in Australia, where he studied Law, Philosophy and International Relations, Evgeny Skigin built his career at the intersection of investment, international business and emerging industries. This combination of legal training, cross-cultural experience and entrepreneurial practice now shapes his work at Bhatu Capital Investments LLC, where he leads the company’s investment services and strategic portfolio management.
Investment philosophy
Bhatu Capital Investments reflects Skigin’s broader view of capital: investment is not only a financial instrument, but a way to identify industries with long-term relevance, build resilient structures around them and support projects that can remain valuable beyond short-term market cycles. This philosophy is consistent with the approach he described in his conversation with Lenta.ru, where he explained that, before entering a business, he looks at whether its results are needed today and whether people will continue to use them in the future.
International background
Skigin’s international background is central to this approach. In an interview with Kommersant, he spoke about belonging to a new generation of entrepreneurs shaped by academic training, global business experience and work across different jurisdictions. For him, building companies across countries requires more than capital: it requires the ability to understand local mentalities, legal systems, teams and business environments. This perspective is directly relevant to Bhatu Capital Investments' role as an investment company focused on strategic management, portfolio development and the disciplined evaluation of opportunities across sectors.
Natural fibres
Over the years, Skigin has applied this investment logic to several industries, from natural fibres and sustainable materials to digital finance and real estate development. Since 2008, he has been the founder and principal of Infinite Fibre AG, an investment company specializing in natural-fibre industries. Through this platform, he has been involved in projects such as DunAgro and Ecofibre, an Australian natural-fibre company formerly listed on the ASX. This work reflects his long-standing interest in businesses that combine market potential with practical environmental value. In his public interviews, this theme appears not as an abstract commitment to sustainability, but as a hands-on approach to building industries: understanding the raw material, the production chain, the regulatory context and the long-term demand behind the product.
Digital finance
A similar combination of early-stage vision and regulatory discipline can be seen in his work in digital finance. As co-founder and former CEO of Bitclear, Skigin entered the cryptocurrency infrastructure market at a time when digital assets were still far from mainstream adoption. In his interview with crypto.news, he describes the evolution of Bitclear from a Bitcoin payment technology into a broader infrastructure business, while emphasizing the importance of regulation, transparency and security for the future of decentralized finance. This experience is especially relevant to Bhatu Capital Investments’ investment philosophy: innovation becomes sustainable only when it is supported by structure, compliance and long-term trust.
Real estate
Skigin’s understanding of sustainability also extends beyond finance and agriculture into architecture and real estate. One of the most visible examples is Domic Noosa, an eco-focused residence on Australia’s Sunshine Coast that integrates natural materials, landscape-led planning and high-end design. The project reflects the same logic that runs through his investment work: innovation should not exist separately from its environment, but should respond to it, improve it and create lasting value. Domic Noosa has been featured by international and Australian media as an example of how sustainable materials and architectural ambition can work together in a luxury context.
People and capital
At the core of Skigin’s work is a belief that entrepreneurship is built around people as much as around capital. In Snob, he described business as the act of bringing together an idea, people and a financial structure, with value created not only for the founder, but also for the team and the end user. This human dimension is important to understanding Bhatu Capital Investments: the company’s investment work is rooted not only in asset management, but in the search for projects where capital, expertise and long-term responsibility can come together
Bhatu today
Today, Bhatu Capital Investments LLC brings together these strands of Skigin’s experience: international education, cross-border entrepreneurship, sustainable industry development, digital-finance expertise and strategic portfolio management. Under his leadership, Bhatu Capital Investments is positioned as a company focused on thoughtful investment decisions, disciplined portfolio strategy and the creation of long-term value in industries shaped by innovation, responsibility and global change..
