💚 Sustainability is a topic close to my heart and deeply integrated into SAP's strategy.   Our goal is to put #sustainability management at the core of every business. One example that demonstrates our efforts in this area is how we integrated carbon calculator engines into SAP Sustainability Control Tower and SAP Sustainability Footprint Management. They enable customers to address the full scope of required emissions reporting, aligned with universally accepted carbon accounting practices. 🌍 Among other things, customers can: ➡️… calculate product as well as corporate carbon footprints (a unique feature of our solution) ➡️… calculate all emission scopes, including scope 3 emissions, which are typically most of a company’s overall footprint ➡️… and feed footprint results back into existing business processes to drive sustainable decision making   If you'd like to find out more about how SAP solutions help to calculate corporate carbon footprints, I recommend to read this blog post: https://lnkd.in/en4zExK8 🌱✨ #Sustainability #GreenTech #CarbonFootprint 

Thinking back to Sapphire when Dr. Benjamin Blau and I shared the stage and discussed how SAP is leveraging SAP Signavio and SAP LeanIX to enhance operations, boost productivity, and harness the power of business AI, data & analytics, and automation. 🌟   A standout use case? #ProcessMining with SAP Signavio Process Intelligence. 🛠️ By visualizing real-time process data, we identified inefficiencies in our invoice creation and cash collection process, leading to faster automation and reduced cycle times. This data-driven approach ensures we focus on facts, not assumptions. The result? Faster invoicing, quicker cash collection, and a leaner operation. 📈

SAP continues to deliver 🚀   Our growth momentum remained strong in Q2 as more and more customers move to the cloud and our #BusinessAI capabilities continue to expand. ➡️ Current Cloud Backlog rose 28% ➡️ Cloud Revenue expanded 25%, driven by our #Cloud ERP Suite which came in 33% higher year-over-year ➡️ Total Revenue growth entered double-digit territory for the first time since Q1/2019   We are executing on our transformation with great discipline, leading us to increase our operating profit ambition for 2025. Simultaneously, we continue to invest in our Business AI leadership. Given our progress and our exciting product pipeline, we are confident that we will achieve accelerating topline growth through 2027. 💪

Was macht eine gute Unternehmensstrategie in der Transformation aus? 💡 Über diese spannende Frage durfte ich heute im Rahmen der Handelsblatt Management Summer School mit Christof Kerkmann und den Leserinnen & Lesern des Handelsblatts diskutieren.     Wir haben u.a. darüber gesprochen, ▶️ was die Kernmerkmale einer guten #Unternehmensstrategie sind. ▶️ wie wichtig es ist, eine langfristige #Vision zu haben. ▶️ und natürlich auch, warum die strategische Neuausrichtung von SAP notwendig war und wie diese langfristigen Erfolg und Wettbewerbsfähigkeit sichert.    Vielen Dank noch mal für die tolle Diskussion! 🙌   Die gesamte Session gibt's zum Nachschauen auf der Handelsblatt Website: https://lnkd.in/ecejZw6u
