This workshop provided an interactive platform for SAP Premium Engagement customers to learn the most recent innovations in self-healing space, exchange experiences, learn from peers about their advancements in that area, and ask SAP experts questions.

SAP Business Technology Platform helps customers focus on business, not on technical building blocks
In the recent years, the speed of business continuously increased. There has been a strong focus on digital transformation (mobile apps, AI, IoT, big data) that became part of companies’ technological landscape. But essentially it comes down to one: the ability to quickly harness the large amount of digital information and deliver an exceptional experience and business value for the end customer. Businesses must now, in COVID-19 crisis, scale their initiatives in a matter of days or weeks. In this unique moment, IT can lead the way to enable companies to progress more quickly than ever before. The question becomes, how to stay focused on the essential and how to do more with less?
SAP’s strategy to be the experience company powered by the intelligent enterprise aims to help customers to thrive in the new economy where being a data-driven enterprise and delivering exceptional experiences is key to their success. SAP provides the Business Technology Platform that allows organizations to focus much stronger on their business, rather than on the technical building blocks. The Business Technology Platform provides enterprises the flexibility and speed in the development of business applications as customers and employees demand better experiences.
