Hopp means leap
In the Nordic languages, hopp is a jump, a leap forward. That is what a migration is for: getting a business onto the system it needs next.

Hopp Tech makes software for one job: moving business-critical data from the systems you are leaving to the ones you are moving to. It began in 2006, inside a Danish data center that ran migrations for banks, where every migration had to be right.
Hopp comes from the Nordic word for a leap forward. It is what our customers come to us for, and how every migration with Hopp should feel: one confident jump, with a safe landing.
In the Nordic languages, hopp is a jump, a leap forward. That is what a migration is for: getting a business onto the system it needs next.
A frog measures the distance and lands where it meant to. Hopp works the same way: every rule is run on your real data, again and again, long before the day that counts.
Frogs live in water and on land. A migration has to understand two worlds as well: the old system the data comes from and the new one it is going to.
Hopp was built to solve real migrations, and it ran them for a decade before it had a name.
Development starts inside a Danish data center that needed a better way to migrate banks onto its platform.
The software runs migration after migration, led by IT architect Lars Kjærsgaard.
Sune Visti Petersen, crossing the Atlantic with family and friends, meets Lars at a bar in St. Lucia. Lars has been living on his boat, still working on the software. Both come from banking, and both know how underserved complex migration is.
The company is founded in England, named after the Nordic word for leaping forward, with a frog as its logo.
Ten years of field use are consolidated into one commercial solution for complex migration.
A new version of the software reaches customers.
The London office opens.
With customers in several countries, Hopp Tech returns to its Danish roots and makes Copenhagen its hub. The brand is renewed and the partnership with Temenos begins.
Expansion into North America and Asia-Pacific, a new SAP offering, and an office in Canada.
Building a network of system integrators that bring Hopp into critical transformation programs around the world.
Both spent their careers inside large IT organizations and financial institutions. They know the risk, the cost and the time a system change takes, because they have lived it.

Sune brings senior management experience from financial institutions and large IT organizations. As Managing Director, he leads Hopp Tech.

Lars began building the software in 2006 and led its first run of migrations in 2008. As Chief Architect, he shapes how Hopp works today.
Lars on LinkedInTrust is earned with things you can check. Here is what every Hopp customer gets.
Data migration is our specialty. All of our software and all of our expertise go into getting your data safely to its new home.
Before you commit, we run a proof of concept on your own data. It takes one to three weeks, depending on how ready your source data and rules are.
Hopp validates the full population, not a sample, and records the state of every Business Object as it moves.
The migration specification lives in your own git repository, under the change control you already run.
Hopp has no AI model of its own. If you use AI, you bring your own, and it stays inside your perimeter.
The people behind Hopp come from delivery roles in banking, insurance and large IT programs. We have sat on your side of the table.
Offices on four continents, and projects across the Americas, Europe, Africa, the Middle East and Asia-Pacific, delivered with a network of system integrators.
Hopp Tech Ltd is registered in the United Kingdom and Hopp Tech ApS in Denmark.
