Episode 83: SAP Hypergrowth and startups: The Perfect Match – Jan Gutknecht

Guest: Jan Gutknecht, Co-Founder SAP Hypergrowth Engagement Host: Timo Deiner, Office of the CTO SAP Germany What are you thinking about when you hear SAP and startups? David vs Goliath? Nokia vs Apple – and who has the role of Nokia in this comparison? Or is it a perfect match? Startups have great -mostly purpose driven- ideas to make the world better and SAP’s mission is to help the world run better. Does an early-stage startup need SAP S/4HANA or any other SAP solution to reach its next level? We think yes. And we have a dedicated team at SAP which helps startups, so called hypergrowth startups, to boost their company together with SAP. My today’s guest is Jan Gutknecht. He is Co-Founder of the SAP Hypergrowth Engagement and we are talking about four pillars on startup engagements: language, speed, challenges and cultures. All of that on this episode of the SAP Experts Podcast.
