SAP & OpenAI Team Up to Revolutionize German Public Admin with AI

SAP and OpenAI are teaming up to revolutionize German public administration, schools, and universities with AI. The collaboration, led by SAP CEO Christian Klein and OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, aims to secure and streamline processes, reducing paper workloads and enhancing citizen services. This initiative aligns with the federal government's national AI strategy, targeting increased AI-driven value creation by 2030.

Currently, many public administration processes are still manual or paper-based, lagging in AI adoption. This new cooperation seeks to change that, with a planned official launch in 2026. Key technical components, including cloud software from Microsoft and high-performance chips from Nvidia, will be used, ensuring adherence to strict German data security standards.

The goal is ambitious: enabling millions of employees to use AI securely, automating record-keeping, and speeding up services. SAP will significantly bolster its cloud capacities in Germany, deploying 4,000 GPUs for AI applications. This will create one of the largest national AI cloud installations in Europe, furthering the country's AI capabilities.

SAP and OpenAI's collaboration marks a significant step towards modernizing German public administration. By 2026, this initiative aims to transform processes, enhance security, and improve services for millions of citizens and employees. As part of the national AI strategy, this project underscores Germany's commitment to embracing AI for growth and innovation.
