The company's surveys and political opinion polls are sometimes cited in Canadian news media, including the Globe and Mail, the National Post, the Toronto Star, and Sun Media newspapers. A particular focus is surveys about Millennials.
In 2013, Bruce Anderson joined Abacus Data as Chairman. Tim Powers of Summa Strategies is the firm's Managing Director.
