German Minister Visits Palo Alto

The German Minister of Economics and Technology, Dr. Philipp Rösler, along with several members of the Minister’s office, German diplomatic representatives, and members of the German media visited SAP’s campus in Palo Alto Monday.

“Minister Rösler and his delegation were visiting Silicon Valley to exchange ideas, key-learnings and best-practices with industry leaders about how technology innovation is fundamentally driving and changing business and society,” said Scott Behles, Communications Director at SAP in Palo Alto.

“Together, we had a lively exchange about new technologies making a real impact (including Cloud, Mobile and Big Data); real-world examples where new technologies are completely transforming industries (such as healthcare, retail and banking); new ways of collaborating across functions, sectors and geographies; and creating a work environment where great ideas are tapped and innovation can flourish and thrive,” Behles continued.

“All of us at SAP were thrilled Dr. Rösler and his delegation made time in their busy schedule to meet with SAP, and we hope they got as much out of the visit as we did.”

SAP is a world leader in enterprise applications software with more than 2,000 employees in Palo Alto, 3,500 in the Bay Area and 65,000 worldwide.  The Palo Alto SAP office is the R & D center for the company’s North America operations.
