Harris Interactive has historically led this polling effort. However, this year, Harris Interactive is officially partnering with its sister company, Toluna, to cover the events. This year’s efforts include over 50 pre-election surveys with over 100,000 people interviewed, as well as 5,000 interviews on election day.

Harris Interactive and Toluna experts will first provide estimates of their weekly polling for the first and second rounds of the Presidential election, held Sunday, April 10, 2022, and Sunday, April 24, 2022.
The coverage will be live on M6 and RTL and will also be shared on Toluna and Harris Interactive social media networks from 12:00 PM CEST each election day and continuing throughout the day. The timeline will be as follows:
- 12:00 PM: Initial analysis of voter turnout
- 5:00 PM: Estimates of voter turnout
- 8:00 PM: Initial estimate of Presidential election results
- 8:30 PM onwards: Exclusive insights from “Voting Day” survey fielded by Harris Interactive and Toluna to understand voter motivations and abstentions
- Later in the evening: Refined results in real time
Following the Presidential election, Harris Interactive and Toluna will again work with M6 and RTL to deliver weekly polling for the French Legislative elections on June 12, 2022 and June 19, 2022, providing exclusive analysis and estimations of the French National Assembly’s composition.

Forrester: Three Years Into GenAI, Enterprises Are Still Chasing Its True Transformative Value2.4.2026 17:00:00 EEST | Press release
According to Forrester’s (Nasdaq: FORR) latest report, Accelerate Your AI Voyage, most enterprises are struggling to turn growing AI adoption and investment into measurable business impact. One of the key factors holding businesses back is low artificial intelligence quotient (AIQ) — Forrester’s measure of AI aptitude — with many employees lacking a clear understanding of how to use AI.

While these challenges can leave firms frozen in doubt or indecision, the wait-and-see approach to AI adoption is no longer viable. To unlock AI’s full potential, organizations need to focus on four key areas: Define the business outcomes and success metrics for what they want AI to achieve; identify specific use cases for AI deployment aligned to those business outcomes; establish a structured runway to plan, test, and strategically time the deployment
