The Dresden region, also referred to as "Silicon Saxony," is located in the eastern part of Germany, close to the German-Polish and German-Czech borders. SAP Research aims to capitalize on this fact by turning SAP Research Dresden into the company's hub for research collaborations with companies and academics from Eastern Germany and the EU member states of Eastern Europe. The location is in close proximity to the campus of the Technische Universität Dresden (TU Dresden).
SAP Research Dresden contributes significantly to three SAP Research topics: mobile computing and user experience, business intelligence, and software engineering and tools. SAP Research Dresden also manages the Future Factory Initiative living lab.
