Friday Morning Report

Here it is, you don’t want to miss out on this brand new event taking place this year!

Innovation Weekend (Sneak Preview)

For many weeks now, folks have been eagerly questioning Craig Cmehil, Jason Cao, and myself about what the RIA Hacker Nite, Insight Night and the Process Design Slam will look like this year at SAP TechEd ’10 .

I must admit that my colleagues have delighted me by helping me realize a dream I had last year of inviting developers, business intelligence specialists and process design experts to pool their talents and harmonize their skills. This year, rather than have separate evening events for SDN, BPX and BOC we’ve decided to help pool talents and community in an event that will move (during the course of a 30+ hour event) a business case from idea to prototype and will expose our communities to a plethora of new technologies from inside SAP as well as from partners.

Beginning in Berlin and Las Vegas this year we will host and invite a select group of community members and TechEd attendees to a two (2) day event of innovation, collaboration, designing, hacking, and implementation.

This event will take place on the Sunday and Monday prior to the Tuesday openings of SAP TechEd ’10 in Berlin and Las Vegas and will engage developers and process experts as well as BI business users in social innovation through an open platform.

Where: Berlin and Las Vegas
When: SAP TechEd 2010 Berlin, Oct. 10 -11 | Las Vegas,Oct. 16 -17 Sunday and Monday both locations (30+ hour Marathon)

Who: SAP TechEd attendees/invited community members/developers/process experts/BI business users

It’s that time of the year again, SAP TechEd is ramping up and that means the Demo Jam call for submissions is on it’s way! In fact with this post I’m going to share some of the interesting new things this year to help make your submission a bit more attention!

The video is about 12 mins long and I cover several things including a sneak peek at some of the information we’ve gathered in the "innojagd" so far! But also about some new changes to the Demo Jam including the fact that once again this year I am available to discuss your ideas and submissions with before you actually submit and for those who actually present their idea at one of the "innojagd" events and then submit to Demo Jam based on the feedback you receive you’ll get an "added advantage with the selection committee"

I’ve just released a post and the schedule for signing up to participate in the “innojagd” event I am working on!

If you think you have what it takes, something cool and new to share with the world – SAP is listening so come join me!
