A former Sambo practitioner, he entered the racing career in 2001 and became the Formula Alfa Champion of Georgia in 2014.

He retired from competitive sambo in 1994 after a remarkable progress where he won gold medal in European tournament and became a second-prize winner of the World Championship.

Since 2006, he worked as a defensive driving instructor and advisor for numerous organizations, including International Red Cross, European Union Monitoring Mission, Swiss Embassy, Georgian Ministry of Internal Affairs and its Police Academy.

His mother, Siranush Bartaia, is a school-teacher and philologist. As a youth, he studied art under one of the city's leading painters Tite Shekiladze ({{lang-ka|ტიტე შეყილაძე}})[2] and improved himself a lot.

In the age of 10, being inspired by his father, Meladze began sambo in “Tuno” sportsclub, where Shota Khabareli and other famous Georgian fighters were practised.

When studying secondary school he also became interested in Aeromodelling and RC cars building. From 1989 till 1993 he was attended Tbilisi State University, where he graduated with a degree in economics.

In 2005 Meladze established GAC (Georgian Automobilists Club) and became its chief executive. He made arrangements and organized the 2005 FIA European Rally Cup (South) in Georgia. The club has promoted a number of amateur motorsports events, each one as a kind of socially significant initiative like “Drink responsibly”, “Follow the road signs”, “Think before you drive”, etc. In 2006 he launched a campaign for a mandatory seat belt use. At the end of 2010, after his speech to the Parliament, the law has been adopted.[14] Since 2007 influential Georgian newspaper “Tbiliselebi” includes his column dedicated to the road safety.[15] For 2012-2013 Meladze hosted the morning TV show at Georgian Channel 1. Since 2014 he is a resident expert at the top-rated Georgian channel Rustavi-2, “The Other Midday” show.[16][17]

On the same year he developed and successfully executed a special training cours for Georgian Ministry of Internal Affairs staff, then in 2012 - for the Police Academy; the latter has been terminated after the 2012 parliamentary election. While heading the Federation, Meladze promoted and supported several auto mobility programs, including the Caucasus Fuel Economy Initiative (CFEI).[18]

In 2008 he began a crusade against demolition of the old Rustavi race circuit and finally found an investor for its total reconstruction. After putting the new race track into service, Meladze created the first professional racing team in Georgia and became one of its drivers.[19]
