Abacus Data is a Canadian polling and market research firm based in Ottawa. It was founded in August 2010,[1] soon after its founder David Coletto graduated from the University of Calgary with a PhD in political science.[2]

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.[3][4] A particular focus is surveys about Millennials.

In 2013, Bruce Anderson joined Abacus Data as Chairman.[5] Tim Powers of Summa Strategies is the firm's Managing Director.
