  Hello,  My name is Vahagn, CTO of RedRays. The past Friday, 11 November, was the graduation day of the second batch's BANA acceleration.  Here, I'd like to say big thanks to the BANA team. With the BANA team and mentors, we passed four months of an acceleration program that gave the RedRays team and me many benefits. In addition, we got helpful information about SAP's new products - BTP, SuccessFactors, and Ariba. We met with great guys on the demo day, and we corrected the goals of our startup. Very short - RedRays is a Cyber Security startup and Research and Development center in Armenia where we are investigating security weaknesses in ERP products.    ... View more

SAP Community member Phil Cooley kicked off an amazing and active initiative #GlobalRunningDay which I liked so much that suggest organizing similar activity in Yerevan as well.  On the 1st of June, #GlobalRunningDay is celebrated all around the world. SAP Community members from Germany, the UK, the US, Ireland, and many other places joined this initiative.  Even though it's a working day and all of us have lots of important things to do, it's a great opportunity to get together for a quick and healthy run. On the other hand, for the past 2 weeks or more Armenia faced heavy rain, while the sun promises to shine even in the evening on Wednesday. For that reason, I happily join the SAP community running challenge. (FYI, I have only run on a treadmill, so don't worry, you're not alone 🙂  ).  Does anyone else want to join me? Below are more details of the event that is planned in Yerevan. Meanwhile, you can check some important information about this global movement: Who can participate: All SAP Community members without any restrictions When it'll take place: 1st June 2022 (Wednesday) What you should do: In a best-case scenario RUN, or else walk, cycle, or hike if you can  Which locations already joined: Melbourne, Walldorf, Mannheim, Philadelphia, Manchester, Galway. Why this was initiated: Networking within SAP Community members combined with a run on #GlobalRunningDay. Now the plan for Yerevan running: Start time: 19:00 GMT +4 Start point: TUMO Park (near TUMO building). End Point: Tsitsernakaberd (park near the monument) What's Next: Let's get together in a park for an iced coffee, tea, or a smoothie.  ... View more

Hey folks, I really have to say the SAP Inside Track in Yerevan was a blast! Seeing so many passionate people about gaining knowledge and networking is just great. If you missed the event, check out the blog post from @Tsovinar : https://blogs.sap.com/2021/11/22/sityerevan-building-the-youngest-and-most-diverse-sap-community/  The SAP Inside Track Yerevan was a hybrid event. Due to the pandemic, it was not possible for everyone to travel. In my opinion this completely new approach of events is a great way to combine on-site activities as well as online. Knowledge sharing never was so easy! No, I haven't been on-site, unfortunately. But technology made it happen! I joined virtually from Germany, and not only as attendee, but as a speaker. Okay, you might miss the networking part, but it's your chance to spread your expertise to everyone. And as of this new group in SAP Community, networking virtually is even easier. What do you think about hybrid events? Have you been part of the #sitYerevan in November last year? Would you be interested in organizing a hybrid event? Looking forward to seeing your comments All the best, Svea ... View more
