Location-based Groups
What are they?
Public Groups for a city near you that allow you to connect people around shared interests and have valuable conversations. These Groups allow you to connect at a local level, sharing relevant information and events.
Who can join?
SAP Community Groups are for all community members to actively interact with each other. Groups provide the functionality to initiate conversations, contribute, collaborate, and more. All of the location-based Groups are city-based. You don't necessarily have to be from the city to join but you might have a connection with that region.
May I start my own Group?
New Groups get requested regularly, so you can check back from time to time on the landing page to see if one has been set up for your city. If you are prepared to invest more time and effort - it is possible to request your own Group - based on an approval process. To request a Group, reach out to community@sap.com to set up a call to scope your project. For this and other FAQs, you can always access the Help page.
Did you join a location-based Group already? Let us know in a comment below! More activity from you helps you improve your rank.

Hey Katherine,
I'm living in Chicago right now.
But is it possible there is no location group for NYC ?
Can not wait to create the first one when I'm there !

Hello @smarches
Looks like you are correct - there has not been a Group requested yet for either New York or Chicago!
Do you have a connection with NYC or are moving there? Do feel free to reach out to us to request a location Group - obviously there is an approval process - but we are setting up new Groups each month! FYI: I will publish a blog post shortly on the Groups launched in February.

Hi @Katherine_K ,
I just wrote wrongly I think in the Chicago HXM for invite people to a SAP Stammtisch.
Let's create a new group. I can help to moderate the Chicago area for now until I'm not moving somewhere else 🙂

Hi @smarches
Any community member can request a new Group at community@sap.com and go through the scoping and approval process then. (I don't have access to the Chicagoland HXM Group).
Thanks,
Katherine
