Florian Kunzke has spent the last decade at the center of enterprise software's biggest bets. As Global Director of AI Strategy at SAP, he drives SAP's AI and agent strategy, helps shape the product roadmap, prepares partnering and M&A decisions, and advises executive leadership and the Board on where the competitive landscape is heading. After joining SAP in 2016 through the SAP Innovation Center Network, he helped pioneer technologies from machine learning and blockchain to quantum computing, before becoming instrumental in establishing SAP's platform strategy for Business Technology Platform (BTP). What makes him a compelling voice on enterprise AI is his ability to look beyond the headlines and spot the nuances that matter: where technology is genuinely going, where enthusiasm outpaces reality, and what it takes for AI to deliver inside a large organization. He regularly speaks at top tier events such as AI Summit Barcelona, TRANSFORM, re:publica, BigBang KI Festival, and SAP Sapphire, and also writes on the future of enterprise AI.
