SAP and the Technical University of Munich (TUM) maintain close collaboration in the context of the Industry-on-Campus strategy. As part of this partnership, the SAP@TUM Collaboration Lab, an initiative of the SAP Industry-University Collaboration Hub and the Chair of Software Engineering for Business Information Systems (sebis, Prof. Florian Matthes) at TUM, supports joint projects between SAP and TUM. The SAP@TUM Collaboration Lab promotes applied research projects, knowledge exchange, co-innovation and communication between both partners.
On Wednesday, November 23, 2022, the first SAP@TUM Collaboration Day took place at the Science Congress Center on the campus in Garching. TUM researchers and SAP experts came together to provide insights into eight joint research projects around topics of Enterprise AI, Supply Network Planning, ESG&Finance, Scaling Agile and Digital Transformation. The event was opened by TUM President Prof. Thomas F. Hofmann and SAP Executive Board member Thomas Saueressig. Besides the numerous exciting presentations and related discussions, the event setup allowed a lively exchange between the more than 100 participants on site. In addition, around 400 participants of SAP and TUM followed the presentations online.
