UX Design Podcast: The SAP AppHaus as a driving force for innovations 

In a world characterized by continuous change, innovative approaches and the integration of different disciplines are crucial for business success. The SAP AppHaus in Heidelberg has been serving as an innovation hub for ten years, providing space for creative thinking, design thinking, and the development of innovative solutions. The concept is designed to create a collaborative environment where customers, partners, and SAP experts come together to work on solutions collectively. As part of the SAP AppHaus Network, we at sovanta share the same mindset and reveal in this podcast episode how genuine innovations emerge in practice. 

This time we focus on SAP AppHaus, Innovation, Design Thinking, and more. 

In this episode of the UX Design Podcast our host Timo Eising has Tobias Gollwitzer from the SAP AppHaus as a guest. Tobias provides insights how the SAP AppHaus has succeeded in breaking down traditional hierarchies and creating a space where everyone is heard. Furthermore, he provides practical insights into how companies and partners successfully implement projects in a user-centered manner, leveraging the innovative approaches of the AppHaus. He discusses what a classic project looks like in reality and highlights the success-driving approach of integrating User Experience (UX), Design Thinking, moderation skills, and Enterprise Architecture. By involving end-users from the beginning, solutions emerge that are not only technically feasible but also desired by the team. However, what are typical challenges and obstacles along the way? How can the SAP AppHaus ensure that agility is not just superficial but deeply implemented? How can the status quo be changed to ensure that employees are carried along in these processes of change? Additionally, the podcast dives into the role of the Enterprise Architect, examining how this profile differs from the Solution Architect and why this position plays such a crucial role. 

sovanta congratulates the SAP AppHaus to their ten-year anniversary.
