In this podcast episode of the Future of ERP, we had an engaging conversation with SAP’s Torsten Welte about the pressing topic of Sovereign Cloud. We explored why this concept is becoming increasingly vital in today’s ERP landscape, especially as countries tighten regulations around data protection. Torsten shared his insights on how businesses must adapt to these changes, particularly in industries that handle sensitive information. We also discussed the challenges companies face when navigating diverse regulations across borders and how leveraging technologies like AI can complicate matters further.
