He is also on the advisory board of the EU-Russia Centre a lobby forum in Brussels.
The EU-Russia Centre describes him as:

He is a member of CREER (Centre de Recherche sur les Elites Européennes et Russes) at Rennes 2 University and has run a number of research projects including national ideology in Russia.[2]
Yet in his own 'LinkedIn' profile Grabar states that he is:

- Adviser at Arjil Groupe Altium
- Vice President Russia, CIS and Eastern Europe at AviaMediaTech Limited
