Each year at our annual SAP Concur Fusion conference, we gather together customers, partners, and staff to connect, collaborate, and inspire. We also take the time to recognize and celebrate a select group of marquee customers who exemplify an innovative mindset and use SAP Concur to help them focus on what’s most important to them.
This year, we received entries from customers across various industries and sizes, who submitted their success stories of using SAP Concur and the transformation they have realized. We received compelling examples of how clients use our products to help them run more efficiently, gain greater visibility into their spending, and improve their employees’ experiences. The winners highlighted how their partnership with SAP Concur drove innovation and the effect it had on their company, culture, and employees.
“At SAP Concur, we are passionate about delivering innovative solutions that fulfill the promise of the cloud and help our customers reach their full potential,” said Christy Marble, CMO, SAP Concur. “Congratulations to the 2018 SAP Concur Innovation Award winners. This group of forward-thinking customers are pushing the boundaries of transformation within their own companies. They are making their employees’ jobs simpler while managing spend and improving their businesses. Each year we are grateful to leaders for sharing their stories to inspire the pursuit of continuous innovation at SAP Concur, within our customer community, and across the industry.”
Meet this year’s winners below, we look forward to sharing their in-depth stories more in the coming months:
