Today marks the six-month anniversary since our Third-Place victory at the SAP Global Tech Ed Demo Jam . As we stand on the threshold of this milestone, it’s not just a moment to celebrate but also an opportunity for deep reflection on the journey we’ve embarked upon – one filled with remarkable achievements and formidable challenges. The euphoria of our success at the SAP competition still lingers, a testament to the dedication and ingenuity of our team. Yet, amid the accolades and applause, we find ourselves at a crucial juncture, where the glare of victory must not blind us to the hurdles that lie ahead. In tandem with our triumph at SAP, we've been bestowed the honour of competing in the IoT Monitoring Challenge, a prestigious event spanning across Australia, hosted at the esteemed University of Technology Sydney. Set to unfold on June 13th, 2024, this event stands as a testament to our prowess in the realm of technology and innovation. It serves as a reminder of the heights we’ve scaled and the challenges we’ve conquered, but also as a harbinger of the trials yet to come. While our successes on the global and national stages are cause for jubilation, we cannot afford to ignore the realities of the local market. Here, amidst the familiar streets and faces, we confront a different kind of battle – one where acceptance and adoption of our cutting-edge technologies are met with scepticism and resistance. The crux of our offering lies in our ability to seamlessly integrate real-time data streaming from IoT devices into the SAP S4HANA digital core, with instantaneous insights facilitated through SAP SAC. It’s a revolutionary approach, one that promises to redefine the landscape of data analytics and decision-making. Yet, it's met with hesitation from those entrenched in traditional paradigms, reluctant to embrace change or relinquish control. In a world captivated by the allure of artificial intelligence, we stand as advocates for a fundamental truth – the foundation of any AI model rests upon the quality and timeliness of the data it receives. Without access to real-time, accurate data, even the most sophisticated algorithms are rendered impotent. Hence, we extend an earnest invitation to all those grappling with the complexities of modern-day data management. Reach out to us, engage in dialogue, and together, let us chart a course towards a future replete with possibilities. For in collaboration lies the key to unlocking the full potential of our endeavours, transcending boundaries, and forging new pathways towards progress. As we commemorate this momentous occasion, let us not merely revel in past triumphs, but instead, let us seize the opportunity to envision a future where innovation knows no bounds, and together, let us pave the way for a brighter tomorrow.

SAP Demo Jam 2023, for me, wasn’t just a competition; it was a journey filled with exciting experiences and lessons that opened my eyes to new possibilities & learnings. It was a place where people came together, shared their ideas, and celebrated creativity. When I got the email from SAP announcing our team had been selected for Demo Jam at TechEd 2023, it was an unbelievable moment. All the hard work and creative thinking was finally paying off. This win didn’t just belong to us, it was the power of our team, the collaboration, and all the great ideas finally bearing fruit. SAP Demo Jam wasn't just about competing; it was about working together and supporting each other as a team. SAP TechEd is BIG! There is no better platform to showcase our idea using different SAP technologies & GenAI. That in itself, was a big motivation for us to demo this idea in front of a large audience. After the announcement from SAP, we were excited, to say the least, and once we shared this news with all our colleagues at Mindset, excitement knew no bounds. We navigated through the different stages of Design Thinking: Understand, Observe, Point of View, Ideate, Prototype, and Test. After several iterations of prototyping, we agreed on a final prototype for  development. The feedback from katherine.kenneally. (SAP Demo Jam co-ordinators), was instrumental in shaping the final version of the app. Our healthy smart food app utilizes the latest and most advanced technology available to us today. We had such a blast exploring new technologies. Working on new areas in BTP – low-code/no-code (Build Apps), Build Process Automation, HANA Cloud, Generative AI, SAP Mobile Start – has been fascinating to say the least, and each day, we realize the endless possibilities available to us today through these technologies. It’s such a pleasure and a matter of pride for us to share the stage with the other teams and be a part of one of the most awaited tech events of this year. In addition to Demo Jam, we attended different sessions and had a lot of learning. One of the best parts about attending TechEd was learning about new technologies, attending developer keynotes, and different learning sessions as well as the hands-on sessions. SAP TechEd for me wasn't just a one-time feeling, I will treasure this experience forever. The things I learned and the connections I made will continue to guide me in my future journey to explore more about technology and innovation.

Hey Folks, it's Navya again! As the year draws to a close, it's time for introspection, especially regarding my dynamic journey through the corporate landscape. Among the noteworthy weeks that defined my experience, the TechEd Week stands out prominently. Commencing with the visit of our esteemed CTO, Jurgen Muller, and CMO, Julia White, to the SAP Labs India Campus, the Women Changemakers session with Julia was a highlight. Her insights on Branding and Marketing, coupled with her inspirational journey, left a lasting impression on all participants. My Emcee Hat: Moving forward in the week, I had the honor of hosting the T&I India Day. This event brought together the entire T&I India unit to celebrate our achievements and gain insights from our leaders on the strategies that have shaped our product roadmap.

The day was packed with engaging sessions, including leader presentations, demo showcases, fireside chats, panel discussions, and the eagerly anticipated Aawishkar Award Ceremony. It was a moment of pride as my team, Tech Mavericks Vedant Gupta Swati Maste Aryan Raj Sinha, secured the 2nd Runner Up award, presented by Juergen Mueller and Martin Heinig. This success was made possible by the incredible support and guidance of our team members Anirban Majumdar PavanKumar PVN Anja Schneider Uma Anbazhagan Mahesh Palavalli Ajit Kumar Panda Lalit Mohan Praveen Kumar ShanthaKumar Krishnaswamy. For Aawishkar, our work-in-progress concept centres around a Gen AI service capable of generating tailored Bill of Materials (BoM) for SAP BTP services and entitlements, given a project’s use case and requirement. This BoM format will provide a concise yet comprehensive list of recommended services, pricing details, and associated entitlements, streamlining the selection process.
