SAP Europe innovation journey
For SAP and its EMEA North partners we ran an inspiration trip through Europe, planning and delivering visits and experiences in Munich, Stockholm and Amsterdam.
The Challenge.
The task
we faced.
Today companies face the task of being innovative. That makes inspiration all the more important.
The Solution.
Was wir daraus
gemacht haben.
An inspiring innovation journey through Munich, Amsterdam and Stockholm. On site, participants gained exciting insights into start-ups and large companies on the topics of circularity, sustainability, business models & innovation, platform economy and artificial intelligence / machine learning.
The inspiration trip began on 16 May 2022 at the SAP Labs in Munich. In collaboration with the Technical University of Munich, SAP offers space for over 700 researchers working on topics such as sustainability and Industry 4.0. The founder ecosystem in the city is particularly dynamic and keeps bringing interesting, varied ideas to market that are worth getting to know. Start-ups from logistics, transport, fashion and catering were therefore visited next. Towards the afternoon of the second day it was on to Sweden, to learn more about eye tracking, communications technology and Stockholm's start-up landscape. Participants also visited the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) and could exchange ideas with one another in a relaxed atmosphere during an evening boat tour through Stockholm harbour. The following day the group flew to Amsterdam to gain exciting insights into work with artificial intelligence, the advertising industry, three-dimensional displays and the digital hub of a global player. To close the trip there was dinner at the Amsterdam Science Park and a debriefing to discuss and place the impressions of the week. A great week full of inspiration and exciting impressions!
What stuck
in the end.
Away from their everyday work, participants got to know inspiring people, business models and processes. They could also try out the newest tech gadgets live.
