While closing S1/2023, we find SUGEN working on a new initiative called "Guide to Growth". Indeed, our User Groups are facing new challenges, and they have to pave their way for the future. How to educate members with the Cloud approach that SAP intends to apply, how to have more implication of LOB people, how to finalize the transformation to a new model after the 2020 and 2021 health crisis... in a world where geopolitics are completely shuffled and we are all experiencing world crisis that only ¾ years ago, we did not even think we could live in? Inflation is coming back with higher ratios than in the past, and technology also has to cope with all the new tensions arriving in different parts of the world. These topics were also the unofficial red thread of our F2F that stretched between April and June 2023, with a lot of exchanges in person, when we met in the Heidelberg AppHaus in the beginning of spring and especially the one with Christian Klein, but also with a very deep and interesting virtual F2F with Thomas Saueressig beginning of summer, that somehow closed this cycle. And while Christian clearly outlined how SAP foresees the future with a lot of cloud coupled with the impacts out of political tensions here and there around the globe, Thomas provided valuable insights on Artificial Intelligence and the questions of ethics behind it. In the middle, between these two moments, we lived SAPPHIRE, with its announcements about Green Ledger, Business Network and SAP leveraging AI. If we look at the path we have walked out in these last 6 months, we have to admit the world is changing extremely fast. SAP world and ecosystem are also changing very fast: but as SUGEN members, we have the capacity and the will to influence it. Our members are asking this from us, and we will deliver this service to them. Let's keep our momentum, and let's go more and more forward. Gianmaria Perancin
