I’ll be an official “social ambassador” for analytics at SAPPHIRE NOW from Madrid next week. This blog attempts to summarize the main analytics-related activities during the two days of SAPPHIRE NOW – but note that this year, SAPPHIRE NOW attendees also have access to all SAP TechEd sessions that are going on at the same time, making it even harder than usual to choose from the dizzying array of possible sessions (the SAP TechEd sessions are technology-focused, and include more networking sessions with IT peers, while the SAPPHIRE NOW sessions focus on the business aspects and include more customer sessions).
For the rest of this post, I’ll focus on SAPPHIRE NOW. There are four main campuses, staffed by SAP experts available to answer any questions you may have:
| Campus | Topics |
| Business Analytics Campus Business analytics offers incredible value and insight. To help you evaluate the impact on your business, we’ve unified sessions and information within a single campus. |
|
| Mobility Campus Accelerate your business with mobile solutions from SAP and Sybase, an SAP company. This campus offers more than 100 state-of-the-art mobility applications and solutions, along with numerous presentations and opportunities to interact with mobility experts. |
|
| Run Better Campus This campus showcases how the SAP portfolio can help line-of-business in companies of all sizes and industry-specific audiences. Organized around the work streams of our customers, |
|
| Technology Innovation Campus Learn about the latest advances in SAP technology, and how strategic innovations such as SAP HANA and cloud computing will transform business and IT. |
|
For this post, I’ll concentrate on activities in the Business Analytics Campus, but note that if you’re interested in mobile BI, analytics integrated with SAP, or the latest in in-memory systems, you may also want to check out the contents of the other three campus areas (as an example, “How Pfizer Uses Mobile Business Analytics from SAP” is on Wednesday afternoon). There are also analytics-related, “TED-like” sessions in the Spotlight theater (which will be recorded and available after the event)
Business Analytics Campus
There are an amazing 87 analytics-related, information-packed sessions scheduled over the two days – use the personal agenda builder to pick which ones you’d like to attend, and leave time to visit the analytics discussion tables (meet and discuss with SAP experts), the demo pods (working versions of the latest analytics software, including HANA, BusinessObjects 4.0, and EPM 10), and the exhibitor area.
Personally, I’ll be concentrating on the customer presentations and panel sessions, so here’s a recap of them below – to see the scheduled times, see the full list of sessions later in this post.
