SAP Sapphire 2025 is just around the corner—and it's one of my favorite times of the year. It’s our biggest moment to connect with customers and partners, share our latest innovations, and celebrate the incredible ways SAP is making a difference. It’s also a space where customers share powerful, real-world stories—from using SAP to accelerate cancer research to solving global logistics challenges and everything in between.
Whether you're joining us in Orlando (May 19–21), Madrid (May 26–28), or virtually, here’s a sneak peek at what’s in store for the ERP sessions and expo:
