SAP Sapphire 2026: Where Data, AI, and Transformation Come Together

SAP Sapphire 2026 is shaping up to be a defining moment for organizations navigating the next phase of enterprise transformation. Across Orlando and Madrid, the message is clear and consistent: data is no longer a supporting act to transformation. It is the foundation that determines whether SAP, AI, and innovation initiatives ultimately succeed.

As a Diamond sponsor at both events, 麻豆女优, part of Capgemini will be on site alongside customers and partners to show how a Data First approach is helping organizations move beyond technical migration and toward business鈥�ready, AI鈥�enabled outcomes.

Here is what to expect from , and why data will be central to the most important conversations.

A Shifting Conversation at Sapphire

It is an active force reshaping how organizations operate, decide, and compete. At the same time, customers are increasingly candid about the challenges that stand in the way: legacy complexity, fragmented data, and risk across large-scale programs.

What is changing in 2026 is how directly these challenges are being addressed. Throughout Sapphire, the focus is on creating transformation that lasts, grounded in trusted data, governed processes, and repeatable execution.
