Christian Klein, SAP's CEO, embarking on an educational excursion
While you might think comparing SAP's annual customer event to a school trip sounds dull, it's a far cry from the truth. The Sapphire is the yearly spectacle where SAP, the tech powerhouse, flaunts its newest products - much like a vibrant carnival. As the crowds gather in Madrid's hall this week, they're not just there for a lecture, but for an extravaganza of knowledge sharing, networking, and technological marvels.
A day before, the atmosphere on the flight from Frankfurt to Madrid felt like a reunion, full of chatter about the Sapphire. "Are you heading there too?" "So-and-so is coming as well. Shall we share a cab, save some cash?" SAP Sapphire was on almost every passenger's mind.
