Commop is a developer of a communication management platform that focuses on optimizing brand activation at the Point-of-Sale (POS). The platform was established to address the challenges of traditional message production, offering a more efficient, cost-effective, and rapid solution for creating custom promotional materials.

Since then, Commop has expanded its client base in Portugal to include major companies such as BP and Unilever, as well as clients in Angola. In 2012, the company underwent a spin-off to enhance its capabilities and international reach, transitioning to a Software as a Service (SaaS) model based on Microsoft technology. This shift allows Commop to provide real-time analysis and control over communication processes, enabling businesses to seize communication opportunities effectively.

Lisbon is both Portugal’s capital and biggest city, with 500 thousand people living within its boundaries. Lisboneers are also known as alfacinhas (little lettuce), due to the Moorish population's habit of growing al-hassa, a word that evolved to alface (lettuce). And if one considers Lisbon’s neighbouring areas, one can say there are three million alfacinhas. This makes Lisbon a dynamic and modern city, without letting go its own history and traditions. As the westernmost European capital and crossing point between Europe, Africa, Asia and America, Lisbon grew to become a city of contrasts, noticeable in every nook and cranny. The picturesque villages of Sintra and Cascais, as well as the many beaches recommendable for surf, turn Lisbon into a growing worldwide touristic destination.
