AI & ERP: Just Hype, Or The Future Of Your Company? Secure Your Strategy Now.

The world is changing at an ever-increasing pace, and artificial intelligence (AI) demands adaptation. This also applies to our event in Salzburg. We have therefore refined the topics, agenda, and title of our event: The promises surrounding artificial intelligence in the ERP environment are enormous: massive efficiency gains, more accurate forecasts, and better-informed decisions. But what does this mean in concrete terms for your corporate management and IT strategy?

Are You also Facing these Crucial Questions?

Leading experts who are familiar with both SAP’s AI strategy and alternative approaches to corporate management will shed light on this topic in short presentations and a panel discussion.

Is the current AI boom just expensive hype that will soon fizzle out, or are you missing out on the future of your company?

Does migrating to S/4HANA still make sense in the age of native AI solutions? And if so, public or private cloud, or even on-premise?

How can you weigh up the approaches of major providers such as SAP and Oracle against those of the new, agile “native AI” challengers?

Where and how do you start, what budgets are realistic, and which strategy will ensure your long-term competitiveness?

The answers to these questions will determine tomorrow’s success. Marketing slides from manufacturers are only of limited help here.

Our answer: an exclusive strategy evening.

We cordially invite you to an evening of clear communication. We will provide you with a cross-vendor overview of current AI strategies in the ERP market.
