SAP plans to "over proportionally" expand its workforce in India, making it the company's largest global hub, surpassing its German headquarters, CEO Christian Klein announced.
Currently, SAP Labs India employs 15,000 engineers, the company’s highest engineering count worldwide.
India is among SAP's top revenue markets and its fastest-growing. Klein, visiting Bengaluru with SAP's executive board, emphasized that the majority of future R&D and customer success investments will go to India, though specific hiring numbers weren't disclosed.
SAP's AI strategy team is largely India-based, and as business grows by 30% annually, Klein reassured that hiring will continue.
