The DSAG Annual Congress 2025 from September 16 to 18 in Bremen will be held under the motto "The Art of Balance. Is it all a question of balloons?". The art of balance consists of reconciling ambitious innovations with the real needs of user companies in an environment characterized by uncertainty. Over 5,500 participants are expected to attend the event.

SAP is consistently realigning itself and, with the new Business Suite, has defined a holistic target image for future SAP and IT architectures in the cloud. Individual adjustments, existing investments and regulatory requirements are ballast that companies and organizations carry with them along the way. Added to this are the constant changes in an increasingly complex, dynamic and uncertain environment. SAP is setting the direction in this mixed situation, but is the impetus strong enough to take everyone along on the journey? The right strategy enables progress without neglecting practical reality. This creates the stability and security needed to arrive in the cloud world. To achieve this, cloud, artificial intelligence and security, among other things, must be considered together and implemented accordingly. The DSAG Annual Congress 2025 provides the framework for the corresponding considerations in order to discuss the art of balance between the three central topics in a lively manner and to point out appropriate paths.
