What an unforgettable experience at the SAP SuccessFactors Partner Summit in Barcelona! The event was an incredible blend of insightful conversations, fresh collaborations, and the kind of energy that fuels partnerships and innovation. We, at Semos Cloud, are thrilled to ref lect on the amazing moments and key takeaways from this exciting event. Day 1: A Kickoff to Learning and Networking The summit got off to a great start, with day one packed with rich discussions about the future of SAP SuccessFactors and its alignment with employee experience. It was energizing to connect with like-minded professionals eager to create value together. A standout moment was the Business Women’s Network cocktail, where we had the chance to engage with inspiring women like Nicolle Gurule Sternberger, Olga Belovolova, and Elisa Corvi, who shared valuable perspectives on fostering strong connections and impactful collaborations. The evening ended with a memorable Gala dinner filled with great conversations, unforgettable laughter, and deep connections. There’s something special about a summit that brings together such passionate people all aiming to make a difference in the business world. Events like this are a crucial platform for networking, increasing partner awareness of our solutions, and opening up many new opportunities – Bojan Pandilov, Senior Sales Development Representative at Semos Cloud Key Partnerships and Personal Connections One of the highlights of the summit was meeting Bárbara D. from SAP SuccessFactors, who radiates positivity and energy. It was incredible to learn that she’s in the top 15% of most appreciated and recognized employees in the SAP Appreciate program. As part of the team behind the recognition platform, Semos Cloud is proud to help organizations recognize and celebrate their employees’ achievements, especially on a global scale. In addition, we had the honor of meeting Géraldine Fasnacht, the first person to wingsuit dive from the Matterhorn, and Edurne Pasaban, the first woman to climb all fourteen 8,000-meter peaks. These women exemplify resilience, passion, and the power of pushing beyond limits. Their stories were a reminder that passion drives us forward, and challenges are simply opportunities for growth.
