The SAP Academic Community Conference EMEA 2025 took place in sunny Athens and we counted with the presence of 120+ participants from 85+ academic institutions from across Europe, the Middle East, and Africa.
This year's Academic Partner was the Athens University of Economics and Business and during this full 3-day event. We held sessions about innovative learning and explored future roadmaps for upskilling while 'drawing the future' of learning and education to remain at the forefront of building future-ready skills. Plenary and breakout sessions were designed with interaction and engagement in mind. There were fantastic community sessions with scientific and practical contributions.

BIG thank you to the 25+ speakers and panelists covering topics on shaping the next chapter of multidimensional education.
BIG thanks to professors from AUEB George Doukidis, George Ioannou, Angeliki Poulymenakou, Ioannis Nikolaou, and their team.
