Hans Hallin will leave his position as CEO of MOPSsys in January, Hans is now retiring after working with MOPS for more than twenty-four years.
“I am extremely proud of what we have achieved together, especially during the last 13 years under our own auspices. We have taken MOPS to a new level, significantly grown, strengthened both the "we-feeling", the partner relationships and not least our customer trust. Now with the new owners, Constellation Software Inc and a generational change in management, I feel that we have found the right way to take MOPS forward to the next generation of quality and information systems, ”says Hans Hallin.
The new General Manager, Maria Karlström, has during her 5 years at MOPSsys shown a true commitment and drive for MOPS.
