The branch office in Tbilisi/Georgia was set up by MWNO deputy director Andreas Hilger in September 2023. After his sudden death in 2024, he was succeeded by Moritz Florin before the office was officially inaugurated in June 2025. The Tbilisi branch office supports research mainly on the Caucasus, Central Asia and the Black Sea region in cooperation with universities and archives in the area. The cooperation with the Orient Institute Istanbul constitutes the first instance of a comprehensive approach to the larger Caucasus/Black Sea region in the context of the MaxWeber Foundation.
