Meanwhile, SAP is (indirectly) funneling part of the revenue from clueless enterprise into... Hasso Plattner Institut! One of the world's hotbeds of computer science innovation (http://www.hpi.uni-potsdam.de/willkommen.html?L=1 http://www.hpi.uni-potsdam.de/willkommen.html?L=1) "Professor Hasso Plattner [co-founder of the global software company SAP and chairman of its supervisory board] has pledged the foundation from his private assets for the day-to-day running of the Institute over a period of more than 20 years. Due to his commitment, he is one of the most important private supporters of science in Germany." Ironic? Visionary? Whatever it is, good work is being done, orthogonally to SAP's main venture.
