SAP Community - Where are you from?

[lauraschmitz]

SAP Community keeps growing and growing and I am super excited for this Welcome Corner as it gives the chance for not only new members but everyone to get to know one another and connect with each other.

As my colleague @KatherineKenneally gives an overall introduction to the Group and what you can expect from it in her blog post, I’d like to take the opportunity to start a discussion about the different locations represented in our global SAP Community. I am interested to read where you are located and where SAP Community is spread around the world.

I am from Germany and currently living in Wiesbaden, which is the capital of one of the sixteen German states located in the west. After years of studies and living in different places, my hometown has caught me again with its charm and the closeness to friends and family has won me over.

But now I am curious, where are you tuning in from?

Hello @LakshmiA as you live in South India, you might want to check the Location Groups in that region. These groups are a great opportunity to connect with other locals, as well as to find community events in the regions. Check it out!

Greetings Laura,

Thank you for hosting the group.  

I've been working with SAP since 1996 based out of Dallas Tx.  In my journey I have helped SAP customers across the globe as an SAP ERP Advisory Consultant with such companies as PriceWaterhouseCoopers, IBM, Cognizant and as an independent contractor.  I'm currently building out a new offering (to be announced in February) for another SAP Advisory Industry Leader and am excited to continue my journey amongst the incredible people who deliver success for SAP clients world wide.

Thank you again, for hosting this SAP Community.
