Sebastian Kurz, the former Chancellor of Austria, has founded a new think tank named the “Global Shift Institute.” This initiative, reported in early February 2026, seeks to gather international politicians, intellectuals, and financially influential individuals.

Since leaving politics in December 2021, Kurz has been active as an entrepreneur, investor, and advisor, with a particular focus on Europe and the Middle East. He co-founded the cybersecurity company “Dream” in January 2023, which is now valued at over 1 billion euros, with Kurz holding shares estimated at 150 million euros. His post-political career also includes appearances at significant global events such as the World Economic Forum in Davos, the Munich Security Conference, and the World Governments Summit in Dubai.

Kurz, who served as Federal Chancellor of Austria twice between 2017 and 2021, has maintained a global presence, traveling extensively for business. He has also been involved in discussions on topics like AI, security, and economic power, participating in events such as the RAISE Summit in Paris in July 2026. The establishment of the Global Shift Institute marks another venture in his post-political career, aiming to foster dialogue and cooperation among various global leaders.
