The Demand Institute initially focused on American Communities. The first report on consumer demand was The Shifting Nature of U.S. Housing Demand, (2012) [3] This was followed by A Tale of 2000 Cities: How the Sharp Contrast Between Successful and Struggling Communities is Reshaping America (2014) [4][5] More recently, the work has extended to China with the publication of "Sold in China" (2015), "No More Tiers" (2015) and "A Wealth of Opportunity" (2016) [6][7][8][9]

The Federal Reserve Bank of New York announced on January 13, 2014 that it was launching a new Survey of Consumer Expectations, which is conducted monthly by The Demand Institute.[10][11]

The United Nations Foundation joined forces with The Demand Institute to launch Project 8, a global collaboration to help the world better anticipate the needs of 8 billion people in 2025 and beyond.[12] The program was publicly announced in October 2014[13]
