𝗗𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝗶𝘁? 𝗦𝗔𝗣 𝗦𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗵𝗶𝗿𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝗕𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗮 𝗶𝘀 𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴! 🇪🇸☎️ As I sit at the airport, checking my last emails before heading to one of my favorite SAP events, #SAPSapphire, in one of my favorite cities I'm reflecting on the past days I've had the pleasure to experience... Last week, I witnessed first-hand what it means when all the parameters for conducting and executing events work out perfectly (ONCE AGAIN!). SAP Sapphire in Orlando was truuuuuuly exceptional. It showcased #innovation, cohesion, excellent organization, compelling keynotes, and the presence of leading brands such as Nvidia, Apple, AWS, Microsoft, Tropicana, Fresenius, Hitachi, and soooo many more sharing insights into their partnerships with SAP. The standard set is undeniably high. 🚀 But I have no doubt that our teams will deliver an equally impressive experience for our mostly European customers in Barcelona this week. This year, we are taking things to the next level! With over 270 sessions focused on business innovation, we are set to make a powerful impact. And let’s not forget a very special moment: hearing from the legendary Toto Wolff in our closing keynote! 🏎️ His insights into peak performance in motorsports are bound to inspire us aaaaall. I am especially excited about Desiree Nadine Storm's and my roundtable, where we will welcome over 30 customers to discuss “𝙃𝙤𝙬 𝙩𝙤 𝙎𝙪𝙧𝙫𝙞𝙫𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙏𝙧𝙖𝙣𝙨𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙢𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙫𝙚 𝙇𝙖𝙣𝙙𝙨𝙘𝙖𝙥𝙚? 𝙇𝙚𝙩'𝙨 𝙏𝙖𝙡𝙠 𝘾𝙝𝙖𝙣𝙜𝙚 𝙈𝙖𝙣𝙖𝙜𝙚𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩.” 🌟 As you know, #DigitalTransformation, #CulturalTransformation #ChangeManagement are topics super close to my heart, which is why I am thrilled to have vibrant discussions around: 1️⃣  𝙆𝙚𝙮 𝙨𝙪𝙘𝙘𝙚𝙨𝙨 𝙙𝙧𝙞𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙨 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙤𝙧𝙜𝙖𝙣𝙞𝙯𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣𝙖𝙡 𝙩𝙧𝙖𝙣𝙨𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙢𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 2️⃣  𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙞𝙢𝙥𝙤𝙧𝙩𝙖𝙣𝙘𝙚 𝙤𝙛 𝙖 𝙝𝙤𝙡𝙞𝙨𝙩𝙞𝙘 𝙖𝙥𝙥𝙧𝙤𝙖𝙘𝙝 𝙩𝙤 𝙘𝙝𝙖𝙣𝙜𝙚 𝙢𝙖𝙣𝙖𝙜𝙚𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩 – 𝙣𝙤𝙩 𝙤𝙣𝙡𝙮 𝙛𝙤𝙘𝙪𝙨𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙤𝙣 𝙨𝙩𝙧𝙪𝙘𝙩𝙪𝙧𝙚 𝙗𝙪𝙩 𝙚𝙨𝙥𝙚𝙘𝙞𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙮 𝙖𝙩𝙩𝙞𝙩𝙪𝙙𝙚, 𝙗𝙚𝙝𝙖𝙫𝙞𝙤𝙧 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙘𝙪𝙡𝙩𝙪𝙧𝙚   3️⃣ 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙘𝙧𝙪𝙘𝙞𝙖𝙡 𝙧𝙤𝙡𝙚 𝙤𝙛 𝙩𝙧𝙖𝙣𝙨𝙥𝙖𝙧𝙚𝙣𝙩 𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙢𝙪𝙣𝙞𝙘𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙡𝙚𝙖𝙙𝙚𝙧𝙨𝙝𝙞𝙥 𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙢𝙞𝙩𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩   YES!

In the second half of 2023, we orchestrated multiple impactful #customer-#centric programs but the ones that left a lasting impression were, the Innovation Day- UAE, a cornerstone event, seamlessly integrated three key components—ISBN, DSC, and CX—under one roof. This convergence not only provided our customers with a diverse range of content but also tailored the experience to be highly relevant to their respective lines of business. The driving force behind these programs was a commitment to fostering innovation and embracing #AI, ensuring that our customers were at the forefront of #technological advancements. The second event that stood out during this period was our participation in WETEX 2023. Here, SAP showcased its latest #innovation portfolio to the Energy and Natural Resources (#ENR) industry. What set this apart was our unique approach of presenting these innovations in a captivating storytelling format. This not only engaged visitors but allowed them to visualize the practical applications of these solutions within their own businesses and technological landscapes. #WETEX 2023 became a platform where #SAP didn't just exhibit products but painted a compelling narrative of how our innovations could transform and elevate the ENR industry. The event underscored our commitment to not only providing cutting-edge technology but also ensuring it seamlessly integrates into the real-world challenges our customers face. Behind all of this great customer experience was great collaboration with MEA South sales and pre sales colleagues but the heart of these programs was my team.

At #Sapphire2024, my fundamental understanding of the SAP ecosystem underwent a profound transformation. I wouldn’t be lying if I said this event opened my eyes to the vast expanse of possibilities as we embrace this paradigm shift. I was initially a little overwhelmed, but walked out after Day 3 feeling a sense of responsibility and urgency. Singularity Is Approaching The infusion of AI across SAP's portfolio, internalizing and fathoming Joule's SAP consulting & ABAP coding functionalities, and its journey towards automating/optimizing 80% of frequent transactions in the coming quarters, showcased the transformative potential of #BusinessAI in enhancing efficiency, agility and decision-making for the intelligent enterprise. The announcement related to the integration of Joule with Microsoft Co-Pilot was probably my favourite one. Dr. Philipp Herzig Exciting and inspiring keynotes featuring Christian Klein, Matt Garman, Jensen Huang, Etosha Thurman, Julia White, Scott Russell, Juergen Mueller, Muhammad Alam, Scott Guthrie, Thomas Saueressig and many more set the stage for 3 full days of networking, exploration, demonstrations, and sore knees (lol). The show floor: My friends, ‘Innovations per square inch’ has never hit a higher ratio. And I’ll be back. Getting to meet and interact with experts and legends in the SAP world, is an experience I’ll cherish for a long long time. Sindhu Gangadharan The musician and Adam Levine fan in me couldn’t have asked for a better end than to watch #Maroon5 crush it. All that’s to say, events and conferences such as Sapphire can be very impactful in so many different ways. I particularly love what it has to offer for the curious ones. I definitely feel a lot more equipped to comprehend, and extrapolate the ecosystem's capacity to drive innovation, and unlock new realms of business value. Stellium Inc.
