In today’s Cloud Wars Live, Thomas Saueressig, executive board member and head of customers services and delivery board, SAP talks with Bob Evans about the pivotal role of AI and the RISE with SAP initiative in reshaping enterprise agility and innovation strategies.
Driving Innovation at SAP
The Big Themes:
- Focus on business transformation: SAP’s new board area, customer services and delivery, aims to help customers with business transformation rather than just technology transformation. This involves moving to the cloud and adopting innovations like AI to enhance business agility and efficiency.
- Collaboration with hyperscalers and system integrators: SAP collaborates closely with hyperscalers for optimal cloud operations and system integrators for business transformation. This co-engineering approach ensures high availability and promotes SAP’s cloud solutions through partners.
- Acceleration and simplification: SAP emphasizes the importance of not delaying digital transformation. With examples like Fresenius and BMW, SAP shows that moving to the cloud and adopting new technologies can be accelerated and simplified, benefiting customers with faster upgrades and new capabilities.
The Big Quote: “First of all, this is always the right time to start. Now. So never wait. Because all of this world is in the stage where investing in digital capabilities is always the right thing.”
