Do you have a problem that needs solving?

Do you have a Problem that needs solving?Consider tapping SAP's Community which will be actively participating in the SAP sponsored Innovation and Technology Pavilion. This type of Innovation is a powerful tool by which all members of the SAP Ecosystem combine their collective talents to solve critical problems facing SAP, its clients and partners, and also the wider community of business software users.

As a Seeker, you post a Challenge - a description of an important problem to be solved. Other members review Challenges, submit solutions, and receive cash awards if their solutions are accepted. You engage a huge talent pool; yet only pay for solutions you accept. That can mean bigger breakthroughs - faster - at lower cost.
