About InterBering

A modern statement of vision, context, and practical next steps — updated 2025.

Investor-forward summary: InterBering, LLC is an Anchorage–based project developer and convening platform focused on public–private, multi–national rail and utility connectivity. We coordinate stakeholders, de–risk early phases, and advance frameworks for permitting, governance, and bankable delivery packages aligned with long–horizon capital.

After receiving dozens of letters with ideas, suggestions, and ready–to–go actions and replies from both American and Russian initiative people, we are individually working with each of them to help prepare, with our knowledge, their own submissions of the project. These efforts assist them in communicating with the offices of the respective parties in the Russian Kremlin and the American White House.

Currently, we have achieved success in activating Russian media and governmental attention after one of such submissions received a first–ranked award on April 11, 2025 in Russia's "Silicon Valley" innovation center — Skolkovo — as the best project in the International Business and Expansion category, managed by Alexey Surkov, Deputy General Director for Commercial Affairs at Atlas Mining LLC. His award-winning concept, titled "Transpontis" (Latin for "across the bridge"), is a transcontinental infrastructure initiative proposing a new geo–economic model connecting key centers of North America, East Asia, and Europe through the territory of Russia.

Six months later, on October 15, 2025, a subsequent proposal to build the Bering Strait Tunnel was voiced by Kirill Alexandrovich Dmitriev, a Russian businessman and the CEO of the Russian Direct Investment Fund (RDIF).

Who we are

InterBering, LLC is an Alaska–registered private company focused on analysis, pre–development, and coalition building for a future rail and utility connection between North America and Eurasia via the Bering Strait. We maintain archives of feasibility work, convene stakeholders, and explore commercialization pathways that could one day enable a safe, economically rational, and environmentally responsible link.

Company background

InterBering is a Limited Liability Company registered in the State of Alaska. Our expertise includes integrating information and management processes with a particular focus on organizing, financing, and constructing an interhemispheric Bering Strait tunnel and joining the railways of two continents, North America and Asia.

Engineers from the United States and Russia have researched and planned concepts for a connecting railway complete with an undersea transit tunnel. Financing and completion would likely merge the best of public and private enterprise, with benefits ultimately shared by consumers on both continents and worldwide.

InterBering, LLC is strategically positioned to coordinate and provide expert liaison, translation, and listing services for American and other companies interested in turning vision into reality. With offices in Anchorage, Alaska, and experienced contacts in Russia, we stand ready to support development of a tunnel under the Bering Strait and assist with rail connections from Canada to Alaska and onward to Eurasia.

InterBering.com provides opportunities for the exchange of information between investors and governmental, public, and private organizations involved in the proposed construction of the Great Bering Way. We plan to help catalyze historic agreements among regional leaders that could, when conditions allow, make this future link a reality.

What has changed since the original vision

  • Geopolitics & sanctions: Since 2022, U.S.–Russia relations and sanction regimes materially limit government–to–government cooperation and private cross–border investment.
  • Arctic governance: Regional collaboration is evolving; many forums have paused activities that include Russia, complicating cross–border projects.
  • Supply chains: Resilience is now a boardroom priority; diversified overland routes are considered alongside maritime and air.
  • Climate & permafrost: Warming increases infrastructure risk in high latitudes, demanding advanced geotechnical design, monitoring, and adaptation.
  • Technology & finance: Digital engineering, sensors, and private capital structures (concessions, PPPs) can de–risk phases long before any fixed link decision.
More detail in Russian: We maintain a parallel InterBering site in Russian (see the flag link at the top right). Some sections are written differently and include additional context. If you read Russian—or are comfortable using an online translator—you can explore the fuller About page here: About (Russian version).

Our near–term priorities (2025–2027)

  • North American connectivity first: Advance analysis and partnerships related to Alaska–Canada rail extensions and freight corridors that are feasible within current legal and political frameworks.
  • Data stewardship: Curate and publish historical feasibility materials and geospatial layers to support transparent, evidence–based debate.
  • Indigenous partnership & local value: Engage Tribal and First Nations partners early; prioritize jobs, workforce training, and benefits in affected communities.
  • Environmental excellence: Promote designs consistent with best practice for permafrost, wildlife connectivity, and cumulative impact assessment.
  • Standards & interoperability: Explore technical options (gauge, power, customs, cybersecurity) that allow phased development and future interoperability without lock–in.
  • Long–term vision: A Bering Strait tunnel or multi–span fixed link remains a long–horizon concept. Progress today means building knowledge, partnerships, and economically justified segments that create value on their own.

How we work

  • Research & feasibility synthesis
  • Open data where possible
  • Scenario planning
  • Consortium building
  • Indigenous consultation support
  • Policy & permitting roadmaps
  • Risk & finance frameworks
  • ESG alignment
  • Safety & security by design

What we are not

InterBering is not a government agency and does not advocate any action contrary to current law or sanctions. We do not solicit or accept funds from sanctioned persons. Our role is to maintain a credible, forward–looking forum for research and pre–competitive collaboration.

Governance & principles

  • Compliance: Adherence to U.S. law, export controls, and sanctions is non–negotiable.
  • Transparency: Source documents and assumptions are cited where possible; uncertainties are explicit.
  • Stewardship: Respect for Arctic ecosystems and cultures guides design and routing choices.
  • Security: Cross–border infrastructure must meet modern cybersecurity and physical security standards.
