Tony Blair Institute for Global Change

The Tony Blair Institute (TBI), known by its trade name the Tony Blair Institute for Global Change and the abbreviation TBI, is a British think tank and consultancy that advises governments and political leaders on strategy, policy and technology. It was founded in 2016 by former British prime minister Tony Blair and, by 2024, worked with governments in more than 45 countries. During its early years, the institute expanded its advisory work across Africa, the Middle East, Asia Pacific, and Latin America while developing programmes on governance, public-sector reform and economic development. In the 2020s, it placed increasing emphasis on the use of digital technology in government, particularly artificial intelligence, digital public infrastructure and digital identity. By 2024, the institute reported working with governments in more than 45 countries and had grown into one of the largest organisations of its kind. Its expansion, funding model and relationships with governments and technology companies have attracted both praise and criticism from commentators and political observers.
