The Last of the Gallup International Founders

It is with great sadness that we inform you with the recent death of Bjorn Balstad

Bjorn was the last of the original Loxwood founders who also set up Norsk Gallup one of the first research and polling companies.

Bjorn was known within the Gallup group as Mr Omnibus as one of the first to invent this cost saving multi client tool. He recently attended the Norsk Gallup Anniversary celebrations and although frail chatted happily with Tony Cowling our President and Gudbrand Jevne Managing Director of Norsk Gallup.
