SES Rebrands as Nanos Research

At the end of November, pollster Nik Nanos will rebrand his public opinion polling firm SES as Nanos Research, and launch the Nanos Research Group, a national consortium of 'like-minded' research professionals and organisations across Canada.

The group comprises MBA Recherché in Montreal, Justason Market Intelligence in Vancouver and Thinkwell Research in Halifax, and provides call centres and focus group facilities in Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver.

Nanos says the change in name and the launch of the new group represent 'an exciting new phase for the team' following increasing demand for its services. SES was established in 1987 to provide management consulting, survey research and strategic planning across North America. The firm currently provides polling services for CPAC, Canada's Political Channel, and for the Osprey Media Group - a chain of 51 newspapers.

Nanos is the former National President of the Marketing Research and Intelligence Association (MRIA) in Canada, the Past Editor-in-Chief of Vue, Canada's magazine for the market research industry, and the Past Publisher of the Canadian Journal of Marketing Research. Through his blog - www.nikonthenumbers.com - Nanos provides a dialogue space to post feedback from SES polls and where members can comment on politics, public opinion and polling.

The firm's current web site is at www.sesresearch.com.
