SAP Inside Track Barcelona 2017 Recap

First edition of SAP Inside Track Barcelona 2017, first SIT also in Spain, took place last June 16th, at @EnelGroup HQ in Barcelona.

We were very happy to have more than 80 attendees registered and finally more than 60 participants. Audience was bigger in the morning than in the afternoon. Between the participants there were 45 people from partners, 29 from customers, 14 were freelance, 7 from SAP and 7 students. About citizenship, there were 3 from Brazil, 1 from Colombia, 2 from Germany, 7 from Italy, 1 from Norway, 1 from Peru, 1 from Portugal, 2 from Romania, 2 from Venezuela, and the rest from Spain. About gender diversity 15% f vs 75% m. A big thank you to all participants, as they are the community!

I started the keynote speaking about what SITs are all about and SAP Mentors program.

We had 15sessions during the SAP Inside Track  (yes, we realized afterwards, that there were too many sessions for one day and only one track…).

Themes were

• Solution Manager 7.2 (with Luis Salvador from Seidor)
• ABAP Edge UI5 – CDS – BOPF (with Fabio Cerioni from TechEdge)
• SAP & AWS (with Ricardo Casanovas from LinkeIT and Miguel Rojo from AWS)

We were very happy because SITBarcelona was mainly presented by local community members. Thanks for volunteering!

All day catering was very good but in the afternoon some more fresh water would be much appreciated… Issues to improve.

As most SITs, we had the opportunity to share some drinks and food the night before at Fabrica Moritz closed to city center.

I would like to thank Kati Fischer (we all missed you, get well soon!) and Ingolf Bayer (from SAP Mentors program staff), Bernhard Luecke and Luis Felipe Lanz, who encouraged me to organize our first SIT Barcelona and helped me a lot with organization topics.

Thanks also to Paul Aschmann who set up our SIT Barcelona Twitter wall.

Special thanks to all Sponsors: AWS, LinkeIT, Neptune Software, SAP, AUSAPE, Damm, SAP Press
and Enel (who offered nice EspaiEndesa meeting room).

And here you are the cool picture group!

Looking forward to meet in future SITBarcelona!
