A double‐headed initiator was synthesized yielding two functional groups for the initiation of the nickel mediated ring‐opening polymerization of γ‐benzyl‐ L ‐glutamate‐ N ‐carboxyanhydride and controlled radical polymerization of vinyl monomers via ATRP or NMP. Well‐defined block copolymers combining polypeptides and synthetic polymers were obtained.
