SAP SE is a global software vendor providing enterprise management software to help companies sell things, buy things, make things, distribute things, account for costs and employee people. (SAP is also involved with many other types of software and services, including business intelligence and analytics, cloud platforms, procurement management platforms and much more). SAP has an expected revenue for 2016 of around 22 billion euros.

This visit to SAP UK & Ireland (London) is free to all students of the Portsmouth Business School and the School of Computing at the University of Portsmouth.

SAP UKI

The 'Experience SAP' Centre at the UK headquarters of enterprise software company SAP is near the M25 on the outskirts of London. It’s a fully interactive, physical, digital – and frankly mind-blowing – experience that shows how SAP is contributing to a better run world, from business to sport, crime to community.

'Earth Runs SAP' demonstrates how data analytics can help deliver aid faster following natural disasters such as Typhoon Haiyan. With this multi-sensory experience, SAP shows how big data can make a difference to people’s lives when it really matters.

'Sport Runs SAP' is an opportunity for you to experience the thrill of driving an F1 car. In Formula 1, the difference between winning and losing can be a millisecond. See if you can beat Jenson Button in the Abu Dhabi circuit (good luck with that!), and learn how McLaren uses real time data analytics to ensure that each lap is faster than the last.

'Future Runs SAP' is for fans of Sherlock and CSI. It’s all about how SAP works with law enforcement agencies to help them solve crimes more quickly and to prevent crimes in the future. The demo lets you play detective, throwing you into the heart of a crime scene in 2020, as you use SAP analytics to work through the clues and close in on the culprit.

SAP has spent a six figure sum upgrading the 'Experience SAP' Centre this year.

Visit Overview

After a welcome from the Marketing Director, you will visit the various simulations and effects rooms within the SAP UK 'Experience SAP' area and take part in a 'Design Thinking' workshop. After lunch you will hear from experts in the field of business intelligence, data analytics, and big data, and be able to talk to current interns working for SAP. Interns receive a number of perks, including paid holiday, a computer, and a paid visit abroad, including to the SAP Palo Alto Design Centre in the USA.
