We can all agree that the past year has for­ev­er changed the way that we work and how crit­i­cal tech­nol­o­gy and inno­va­tion is for over­com­ing the world’s challenges.

Join us on April 29 for our com­pli­men­ta­ry ASUG Express: Future City vir­tu­al event. Learn from fel­low future city peers, thought lead­ers, and SAP sub­ject mat­ter experts who will pro­vide insight, advice, and guid­ance on how to plan your strat­e­gy. We will also help you under­stand how to extend the capa­bil­i­ties of your exist­ing SAP invest­ment in order to accel­er­ate your city transformation.

Key take­aways include:

  • Gain key insights from your peers at oth­er cities on their lessons learned dur­ing their future city journeys.
  • Learn best prac­tices for devel­op­ing your future city plans direct­ly from a world-renowned thought leader on future city transformation.
  • Under­stand how inno­va­tions on cloud tech­nolo­gies helped cities and munic­i­pal­i­ties man­age demands dur­ing the COVID-19.
  • Gain exclu­sive insight into SAP’s strate­gic cloud invest­ments that can accel­er­ate the dig­i­tal needs of our cities in a secure and data-com­pli­ant manner.
  • Get the lat­est update on the SAP indus­try cloud strat­e­gy, which will pro­vide pur­pose-built solu­tions tai­lored for the needs of the pub­lic sector.

The New Nor­mal and How Cities Are Responding

COVID has fun­da­men­tal­ly changed com­merce in all forms and has accel­er­at­ed dig­i­tal trans­for­ma­tion across the econ­o­my. Cities face many of the same pres­sures. For exam­ple, they have already had to fun­da­men­tal­ly change how employ­ees work. Long-held views of account­abil­i­ty and con­trols have been shat­tered. The rise of e‑Services has trans­formed ser­vice deliv­ery by cities. Through it all, munic­i­pal lead­ers have learned that cities and their cit­i­zens require a lev­el of agili­ty that is dif­fi­cult to achieve with cur­rent oper­at­ing mod­els and rev­enues. What role will IT play in this envi­ron­ment? In this ses­sion, we will exam­ine the new IT invest­ment pri­or­i­ties for cities oper­at­ing in the new normal.
