Proekt (Russian: Проект, lit. 'Project') is an independent Russian media outlet specialising in investigative journalism. In 2021, Proekt was relaunched as Agentstvo (Агентство, 'Agency'), but restored its original name in 2022, while Agentstvo became a news website. Since 2001, Roman Badanin has worked for Gazeta.Ru, Forbes, Interfax, RBK and Dozhd as editor-in-chief. In 2017, he left the country to study journalism at Stanford University in California. In 2018, after graduating from his studies and returning to Russia, he decided to engage in investigative journalism in the format of an online media, which he had previously done. The project involved his colleagues at Dozhd (Maria Zholobova and Mikhail Rubin), as well as RBK. As of July 2018, Proekt had 10 employees and its initial budget was 500,000 dollars.
