"Making the spirit of ecosystem co-innovation tangible to our customers worldwide – this is what the SAP Global Co-Innovation Labs are all about. And this is why we are located in leading technology centers across the world – Silicon Valley, Tokyo, and Bangalore." Axel Henning Saleck Head of Global Co-Innovation Lab Network Global Ecosystem and Partner Group SAP

SAP's Global Co-Innovation Lab (COIL) Network is a globally distributed set of teams and lab facilities aimed at driving and facilitating innovative projects between SAP and our partners, both globally and in the regions.

The first SAP Co-Innovation lab facility, located inside SAP Labs in Palo Alto, California, acts as an intelligence interface between partners and SAP to successfully drive co-innovation. This interface is further strengthened by the global COIL network with lab facilities in Tokyo, Japan, and Bangalore, India, and additional expert teams in Walldorf, Germany, and Seoul, Korea – all forming an integrated, global network with expertise and facilities. Since its foundation, COIL and its internal and external partners continue to successfully drive a vast number of innovative projects to help deliver innovative solutions from SAP and our partners to the market.

Key goals of the global COIL network are to:

• Create co-innovated solutions
• Accelerate technology adoption and enablement
• Provide a global, shared project infrastructure
• Showcase joint achievements
