The SAP partner ecosystem plays a crucial role in supporting Africa’s digital transformation efforts.

SAP Africa, a subsidiary of the global software giant SAP, has been operating in Africa for over two decades. The company provides cutting-edge enterprise software solutions to businesses of all sizes, enabling them to streamline operations, improve efficiency, and gain a competitive edge in the digital era. Additionally, SAP Africa’s success is largely attributed to its strong partner ecosystem, which comprises a network of skilled and experienced companies that help deliver SAP’s technology to customers across various industries.

Furthermore, the company recently celebrated the outstanding achievements of its partners at the SAP Africa Partner Awards, held in the picturesque Cape Winelands. These awards further recognize the invaluable contributions of SAP’s partners in driving innovation, growth, and success for organizations across the African continent.

Nazia Pillay, Head of Partner Ecosystem at SAP Middle East and Africa: South, emphasizes the critical role of partners in the face of evolving customer demands and the increasing influence of technologies like artificial intelligence (AI). As organizations strive to define new business cases, unlock fresh revenue streams, and drive higher levels of efficiency, they also increasingly rely on the expertise and capabilities of SAP’s thriving partner ecosystem. Additionally, Pillay notes that the adoption of powerful new technologies can be eased through the support of these expert partners.
