Sebastiano Marchesini — Is a SAP Champion and IEEE Senior Member based in New York, working as a lead technical consultant on enterprise cloud modernization. He is the author of the SAP PRESS E-Bite Migrating from Neo to Cloud Foundry for SAP BTP and the instructor of the SAP PRESS online course Extending SAP S/4HANA with CAP and AI.
