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?

[ChiragThakkar]

Hello, I am from India and an SAP FICO Solution Architect.

Sharing my journey, from struggling with CA exams to becoming a successful SAP FICO ECC/S4HANA Consultant, Trainer and Mentor! In 2009, I embarked on CA journey, but faced challenges and struggled to clear the exams, constantly falling behind on average marks. Determined to find a new path, I made a bold decision in 2015 and pursued SAP FICO certification. 💪 Have worked in top IT companies like Capgemini, Accenture and IBM & done 2 Green Field implementations followed with their short support, 10+ Roll outs handling end to end FICO sub modules and 1 Brownfield Implementation. 💼 ✨ Today, as a successful SAP FICO Consultant, Trainer and Mentor, I support and guide individuals pursuing BCOM/BBA/BA/CA/CFA/CFP/ACCA/MBA on their journey to becoming SAP Consultants. Together, we can achieve great heights in the dynamic world of finance and technology! 🌟🚀📈
