We offer over 100 years (!) of combined hands-on experience in process industries and trade associations, paired with a forward-thinking mindset.

He was directly engaged in various associations and project groups addressing the climate challenge, including with the International Energy Agency and the World Business Council for Sustainable Development. He participated to 4 Conference of Parties (COPs) to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and to many high-level international events as speaker.

In 2018, Cécile Moreau  (former Group Sustainability Communication Manager for HeidlebergCement) joined as head of HOP Connect to reinforce project coordination and impact, and integrates stakeholder communication into HOP3 catalogue of services.

In 2023, HOP³ broadened its portfolio of services to integrate carbon capture solutions and Akhilesh Gupta (GreenOps) joined HOP3 as an associated partner.
