My Experience at SAP TechEd Bangalore 2015

[vivekbhoj]

Hello Everyone,

TechEd Bangalore just got over and I had an awesome experience.

This time TechEd was organised at a different place - BIEC.

Registration Counter and Entry to BIEC

After collecting the entry pass, I got a bag and to my surprise it had headphones - were needed to listen to lectures

A View of Keynote Hall, Lectures and Dining Hall

It was good to see SAP recognizing SCN Topic Leaders and their names flashed on the big screens

Keynote was mainly focused on S/4HANA and we got to see few demos related to that

During the Keynote, they also showed a demo on how to build an app for Desktop and mobile in less than 15 minutes.

The Hall was jam-packed on the first day

Later I attended a session on SLT and got to meet tobias.koebler

It was a great pleasure to meet you in person.

It was a great pleasure to meet marilyn.pratt, malin.liden, jeanne.carboni at the SCN Topic Leaders meet where we discussed about the future of SCN.

It was a pleasure to meet craig.cmehil, jason.lax and  was glad to meet my SCN friends again  - viru48, sakthivel.elango , sara.g, midhun.vp, krishna.tanguduand viswanatha.reddy2 in person

Couple of things that I missed at the TechEd were:

No mention of HDE(HANA Distinguished Engineers) - although the TechEd was focused on HANA but there was no mention of HDE

We talked to Craig regarding it and he told he was very busy this year and that next year they will have something for HDEs

Name of some of the SCN Topic Leaders were missing -  We discussed this with Marilyn

Overall TechEd was a great event and I loved attending my second TechEd.

Hi,

This time i was missed out.... Thank u for sharing memories...

[marilyn_pratt]

Sincere apologies that your recognition wasn't more public through an oversight!

I know that arijit.das was also inadvertently missing from the slide acknowledgement.

I'll take that responsibility and beg forgiveness.

Please, please let us know if we missed anyone else.

It was such a pleasure to meet you and say thank you in person.

I will add my apology too. Vivek,we had an exchange about getting you the I'll Be There badge, so of course I knew you were going. But I didn't make the Topic Leader connection. I am sorry!

[vivekbhoj]

No problem Marilyn and we already discussed this matter at TechEd

No need to apologize again

It was a great pleasure to meet you in person

Thank You for all the work that you have done for SCN community :smile:

[vivekbhoj]
