Keynote Address Reinventing your business in real time Wednesday, 9.00 – 10.15 • Congress Hall
As consumers, we are living in a hyper-connected world where product cycles have dramatically shortened, where markets are unpredictable, and where cash and financing is not easy to get. In this world, it is not enough to report what happened, you also have to predict the future. Kai Finck Senior Vice President LOB Solutions for Corporate Functions SAP
But until now, companies have not had the technology or capability to conduct their business in real time, to their disadvantage. Imagine being able to plan for issues at any point in your supply chain;,understand immediately the impact of logistical and procurement delays on your manufacturing timelines, and know not only what customers bought, but also how they felt about what they bought. This is the type of critical information that will keep companies ahead of their competitors and working in lock step with their customers and suppliers. Learn how to make this dream a reality by utilizing a powerful combination of your existing applications and processes running on top of a next-generation, in-memory platform known as SAP HANA®. In this unique keynote address, Kai Finck, Senior Vice President for LOB Solutions for Corporate Functions, gives you an entertaining, no-nonsense introduction to the SAP Business Suite powered by HANA, and shows how it enables you to rethink your business processes, embed intelligence into your transactions, and invent business models never before possible. He will draw on a combination of real-world examples, demos, and case studies to illustrate how you can run smarter business innovations, faster business processes, and simpler business interactions. In the end you’ll see how you can consistently turn innovation into business value.

General Assemblies Enabling a proactive approach to innovation and excellence Wednesday, 10.45 – 11.45 • Panorama Hall The ongoing benefits of an integrated product lifecycle management strategy are well documented as a way to achieve significant top- and bottom-line benefits: reducing time to profit, decreasing development costs, and ensuring a comprehensive change process. How do you then implement, maintain, and monitor this strategy that aligns with your organizational goals from design-through-production synchronization? This general assembly provides discrete and process industry leaders with a comprehensive integrated product development roadmap that supports differentiated product development strategies, aligns cross-functional project resources, and enables portfolio and project management, and workflows — from idea to obsolescence.
Thomas Ohnemus Vice President Solution Marketing SAP PLM SAP Manufacturing SAP 3D Visual Enterprise SAP
Graham Conlon Global Vice President SAP PLM Solution Management SAP
Re-thinking your supply chain: Changing the game with real-time capabilities Wednesday, 12.00 – 13.00 • Panorama Hall The 2013 supply chain is global, complex, and volatile, offering an unprecedented and equal opportunity or challenge. The stakes are high and many stakeholders have a common strategic imperative to achieve measurable and consistent results and operational excellence. In this context, in-memory technology arrives to inaugurate the era of real-time, demand-driven supply chains. With real-time capabilities at your fingertips, what should your supply chain look like? This general assembly challenges delegates to rethink the supply chain in 5 key areas: • • • •
Responsiveness: Driving supply processes based on actual demand Collaboration: Real-time planning and “what-if ” scenarios Distribution: Improve service and lower costs Operations: Profitably plan and re-plan based on distribution and manufacturing costs • Decisions: Real-time insight to sense and respond to changing business dynamics
This general assembly provides supply chain executives with a roadmap to changing the game and gaining competitive advantage by transforming insight into action in real time.

General Assemblies (continued) Enabling procurement excellence in today’s networked enterprise Wednesday, 14.15 – 15.15 • Panorama Hall Companies today are operating in a hyper-networked world where their global business relationships with suppliers, partners, and customers drive their success. In order to thrive in this environment, procurement teams are challenged to rethink and innovate how they work: creating new collaborative source-topay processes that bring both top and bottom line value. Extending this automation and collaboration to all suppliers — large and small — is critical to achieving sustainable savings and increasing profitability. This general assembly provides you with information on game-changing spend management applications and technology, with a focus on the future roadmap of SAP and Ariba’s market-leading solutions, along with an introduction to the world’s largest business network — the Ariba Network. Find out how your peers are changing the way they do business and see how you can transform strategy into action on your journey to procurement excellence.
