As one of the world’s largest enterprises, IBM put its trust in RISE with SAP to modernize and transform its global SAP landscape on SAP S/4HANA Cloud, private edition.  The result: more than 150,000 users across 175 countries now run on a next-generation digital core, with a 30% reduction in infrastructure and operations costs achieved in just 18 months — while cycle times in finance and supply chain accelerated dramatically.

This session offers a rare inside look at IBM’s RISE journey — showing how the company reinvented itself with speed, scale, and measurable impact.  Attendees will see how IBM leveraged automation, AI-driven insights, and transformation tools to compress timelines, simplify migrations, and unlock new business value.

In this session, you’ll walk away with three of the most impactful strategies IBM used to lower cost, disruption, and risk:

• Automating core migration tasks to accelerate timelines and reduce manual effort.
• Using AI-driven insights to optimize business processes and unlock new efficiencies.
• Leveraging transformation tools to simplify complexity and de-risk the journey.
