Financial Analyst Conference summary
20 May, 2026Strategic vision and transformation
Accelerating the shift to an AI-first, autonomous enterprise, building on a harmonized cloud foundation and extensive data integration.
Emphasizing four pillars for transformation: product innovation, go-to-market evolution, workforce transformation, and operational efficiency.
Unique competitive positioning is achieved through deep process and industry knowledge, with over 120 mission-critical processes and 7.3 million data fields covered by the SAP Knowledge Graph.
AI is positioned as a new layer atop SaaS, with SAP aiming to lead both the agentic experience and the underlying platform.
AI-led growth is expected to unlock a total addressable market exceeding $5 trillion by 2030, with the core business suite TAM growing at 12% annually.
Product and technology roadmap
Launching a new Business AI Platform with agent builder tools, supporting multiple LLMs and seamless integration of SAP and third-party data.
The SAP Business AI Platform integrates context, models, and governance, supporting over 400 AI agents and 55,000 managed agents across customers.
Industry-specific ontologies and domain modules are being developed to address complex, high-value scenarios.
AI migration tools and connectors enable faster ERP modernization and allow AI adoption even on legacy systems.
Full lifecycle governance of AI agents is managed through the SAP AI Agent Hub, ensuring security, compliance, and value realization.
Go-to-market and customer adoption
Evolving to a consumption-led, outcome-based commercial model, with a growing share of cloud revenue tied to AI and agent consumption.
RISE and GROW with SAP are positioned as AI deployment factories, accelerating time-to-value and reducing ERP migration costs by up to 35%.
Cloud revenue growth is driven by new customers, cross-sells, and upsells, with 9 out of 10 cloud ERP customers adopting four or more cloud solutions.
Public cloud ERP is the mainstream model for new customers, with strong growth in mid-market and partner-led channels.
Customer case studies (e.g., Ericsson, Bayer) highlight tangible productivity gains and large-scale AI adoption.
