Gallup International Association

The Gallup International Association (GIA) is an association of polling organizations registered in Zurich, Switzerland. The Gallup International Association was founded in 1947 in Loxwood Hall, Sussex, UK. Dr. George H. Gallup served as its first President, until his death in 1984.[1][2] From 1 January 2018, the management headquarters has been located in Vienna, Austria.

Not to be confused with Gallup (company).

Gallup, Inc. US and the Gallup International Association (GIA) were involved in a legal dispute over the use of the Gallup name.[3]

Gallup International Association or its members are not related to Gallup Inc., headquartered in Washington D.C which is no longer a member of Gallup International Association. Gallup International Association does not accept responsibility for opinion polling other than its own. Gallup International requires that their surveys be credited fully as Gallup International (not Gallup or Gallup Poll).

The Board includes Kancho Stoychev (President), Michael Nitsche (Executive Vice President), Steven Kang (Vice President), Johnny Heald (Vice President), Dr. Andrey Milekhin (Vice President) and Dr. Munqith Dagher (Regional Director MENA).
