Back in April, I introduced the SAP Runs SAP series—our opportunity to open the doors and give you an unique behind the curtain view on how SAP applies its own technology to transform into an autonomous enterprise.
Since then, the journey has accelerated significantly. We updated the series with more topics, sharing the learnings and best practices of our internal IT.
Today, I’m excited to share an update:
👉The series is now in full swing—with new sessions, expanded topics, and deeper insights into how SAP is operationalizing AI at scale.
From Strategy to Reality: Building the Autonomous Enterprise
A major highlight comes from SAP Sapphire, where Max Schneider (Head of Corporate Strategy & Transformation Projects) and Sebastian Kress (Head of AI, Platforms & Data within Corporate Processes & IT) shared how SAP is designing and running the autonomous enterprise.
Their session provides a powerful foundation for everything we explore in this series:
- Agentic AI embedded into business processes
- Governed data products as the backbone for decision-making
- A clean core strategy enabling scalability and extensibility
Most importantly, Max and Sebastian demonstrate how SAP brings these elements together internally with SAP runs SAP, to orchestrate AI-assisted, end-to-end processes and globally scalable operations.
📺Watch the full SAP Sapphire session here. It is a good introduction to the expert sessions of the series.
