At Economist Impact we’ve immensely enjoyed working with SAP, Europe’s leading technology company (alongside ASML) both at the SAP Connect conference in Las Vegas, and at DPW in Amsterdam in the past few days. At DPW, SAP’s Gordon Donovan and Economist Impact's John Ferguson discussed the geopolitical risks faced by procurement teams, the need to evolve operational models, and the implications of artificial intelligence. For a deeper examination of how procurement is changing, please see our Economist Impact hub supported by SAP Ariba, part of Spend Connect, here: https://lnkd.in/e8avZBtU. John Ferguson ran a roundtable with chief procurement officers from some of the world's most prominent companies to discuss how turmoil in global trade is affecting supply chains. In Las Vegas for SAP Connect I presented themes from The Economist's upcoming The World Ahead 2026 publication (editor-in-chief: Tom Standage) ranging from 2026’s Ozempic Games to the Democrats’ shape-shifting ahead of the US midterms to conflict in new realms like space, the ocean floor and the Arctic. For SAP Finance Connect, the event’s finance track, I sat down with SAP’s Chief Financial Officer and executive board member, Dominik Asam, for a keynote conversation about how finance leaders can best adapt to current macro volatility and new AI tools. An overarching theme of SAP Connect and Finance Connect is finance as the conductor of the enterprise, collaborating across functions to manage risk and devise strategies for healthy growth and profits. Dominik Asam's advice to fellow CFOs and finance leaders: recognize the AI super cycle is real, stay curious–and accept an expanding role from steward of capital to key enabler of human potential. Thanks to the fantastic SAP team we worked with - Gordon Donovan, Baber Farooq, Madison Wilson, Viktorie Janackova, MSc., Bettina Schlegel, Claudia Gaissmaier, Kathryn Ferguson and Alma Lyles. And to David Imbert, Lara Albert and Etosha Thurman for the warm welcome. #geopolitics #cfo #newglobalisation #tradeintransition
