‘GET PEOPLE WHO CHALLENGE YOU BUT but having shared vision’!

‘GET PEOPLE WHO CHALLENGE YOU BUT but having shared vision’!

On our second day of #womenentrepreneurweek, we met representatives of SAP in Zurich and their founders.

(SAP was started by 5 tech founders; and has been developing for 50 years).

Sharing from our inspiring @ Sabrina Storck Chief Operating Officer of Switzerland SAP, Alexander Finger, Christian, Ana-Maria, Viktoria

1. ‘Invite people who challenge you into your team. You don’t want 5 people with your versions, you want 5 people who are great as the ways they are, believe in the same vision, and challenge each other to move toward the vision’.

We could feel that spirit from the team of SAP, including Sabrina, Alexander, Christian, Ana-Maria, Viktoria – they are all different, but sharing the same spirit of driving innovation.

2. Think big, start small

SAP embraces entrepreneurs within its remit. We had a chance to listen to one of the incubated startups – one of the 5 chosen startups to be incubated internally in SAP last year, among 300 startups.

No matter how big or small you are, as long as you believe you believe in what you do, you go for it, either reaching small or big partners, you have at least a 50% chance of success when you do.

3. Partnership

SAP embraces partnerships from all over the world to be their second arms in their local ecosystems.
