Representing EPI-USE AppHaus Pretoria, the only AppHaus in Africa, EPI-USE Labs and other attendees were treated to the latest advancements in SAP's Business AI, showcasing how artificial intelligence is being leveraged to create smarter business solutions.
One of the standout sessions was 'Designing Better Tomorrows', presented by Stanford professor, designer, and author Lisa Kay Solomon. Her insights into design thinking and innovation were both thought-provoking and motivating.
