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?

[sveabecker]

Ah, Switzerland! Indeed we have 2 location groups there:

St. Gallen

Zuerich

Here is the list of all European city groups: https://groups.community.sap.com/t5/europe/ct-p/europe 

[acarolinam]

Hello, I'm from Joinville, Brasil. I lived there until December, 2022, when I moved to Portugal to embrace new challenges in my ABAP career.

Hello @Hazem99 welcome! What is your expertise? Did you find any interesting group in our interest groups? I would like to recommend to "JOIN" these groups, so that you'll get a notification once new content is posted and you'll never miss anything again.

@Former Member welcome to SAP Community! We have already some city-based groups in India - although Pune is not yet there, it's maybe worth exploring the others and connect with other community members.

As there will be also regular events around that area, I would like to recommend to subscribe to the SAP Stammtisch and SAP Inside Track Event boards. So you won't miss any upcoming event anymore!

Hi everyone!

My name is April and I am from Auckland, New Zealand.

I was introduced to SAP through a large retail project where we implemented S/4HANA, and it's been quite the journey. I'm well-versed in data migration and materials management, and I'm always eager to learn more and share experiences with the SAP Community.

It's fascinating to see the diverse locations represented here, from Germany to all corners of the globe. Looking forward to connecting and exchanging insights with you all! 😊
