The agenda covers SAP s corporate strategy as well as its strategy for the financial services industry, views from the outside, key success factors, and value drivers. It also offers solution-oriented presentations and customer successes that allow you to see solutions in action, exchange ideas, and get answers to your questions. You will also have the opportunity to network with colleagues and peers from across the global financial services community.
