Businesses of every size are putting sustainability at the top of their must-haves for future success.
Transformation has changed for good, as small and medium-sized businesses uncover the value of moving sustainably into the future. At their most fundamental level, businesses have three goals: to drive revenue, reduce costs and mitigate risk. New SAP Insights research shows sustainability is a key consideration in economic growth, and, as these experts suggest, it could be a deciding factor in all three of these goals.

The way assets operate in those two different scenarios is going to be significantly different, to the point where you might invest or make capital allocation choices very differently. The transformation itself still needs to happen, [but] it needs to be flexible enough to accommodate both.
