Robert Amsterdam Welcomes Release of Georgian Entrepreneur George Bachiashvili and Confirmation of Parents’ Full Exoneration

Washington, DC, February 23, 2026 — Amsterdam & Partners LLP hails the release of Georgian entrepreneur George Bachiashvili following his settlement with Georgian authorities, marking the conclusion of proceedings spanning nearly three years, now enabling him to reunite with his family and resume his professional life.

The development also brings resolution to matters affecting his parents, Dr. Aleksandre Bachiashvili and Dr. Marina Ramazashvili, distinguished medical professionals holding MD and PhD degrees. Dr. Aleksandre Bachiashvili is an internal surgeon and Dr. Marina Ramazashvili is an eye surgeon, both respected members of Georgia’s medical community whose integrity and professional reputations stand affirmed. While subsequent proceedings in connection with their son’s case sought to involve them, placing additional burdens on the family, all charges were ultimately dropped, consistent with their non-involvement in the matters under dispute.

Robert Amsterdam, Founder and Managing Partner of Amsterdam & Partners LLP, welcomed the outcome and highlighted both the personal and broader significance of the moment.

“Following his release, George Bachiashvili looks forward to resuming his personal and professional life. This follows an exceptionally difficult period of detention and proceedings spanning nearly three years. Equally important is the confirmation that his parents are fully cleared. Dr. Marina Ramazashvili and Dr. Aleksandre Bachiashvili endured considerable personal strain during this period. The family maintained dignity and resilience throughout, and the closure of these matters brings long-awaited relief to them all.”

Throughout the proceedings, Mr. Bachiashvili’s professional achievements and entrepreneurial credentials continued to receive recognition from international observers, reflecting his reputation as a dynamic venture investor and business leader with significant global experience.

Mr. Amsterdam emphasised that proceedings of this nature inevitably affect families as well as individuals, noting the strength demonstrated by Mr. Bachiashvili and his parents during this period. Looking ahead, Mr. Bachiashvili intends to focus on investment initiatives, innovation-driven ventures, and constructive international partnerships that will support economic growth and expand Georgia’s engagement with global markets.

“George is a talented entrepreneur whose education, work ethic and international experience position him to contribute to innovation, investment and economic opportunities for Georgia. His priority now is the future, pursuing new ventures and engaging with partners who share a commitment to competitiveness and growth for Georgia’s economy.”

Amsterdam & Partners LLP expressed appreciation for the attention and engagement of civil society organisations, including Transparency International Georgia, whose monitoring and advocacy contributed to sustained international awareness of the proceedings.
