SAP Academic Community Conference DACH 2026

With the conference theme “Human-Driven Artificial Intelligence,” this year’s #ACC2026 connects technological topics related to AI-supported applications, human-centered AI development, and responsible AI use with business-related questions. These topics are examined, taught, and researched both separately and increasingly in conjunction at universities and higher education institutions, with a focus on humans as the driving force behind AI innovation.

The SAP ACC 2026 is understood as an open professional conference where content and networking are equally important. We aim to connect practitioners with researchers and educators, generating innovation in all areas of IT support for business through joint discussions and conversations.

We warmly invite practitioners, dedicated researchers, and all interested parties to engage in interdisciplinary dialogue and exchange of experiences. The conference serves as a platform for close networking between universities and businesses. Therefore, there will be space for practical contributions (e.g., in the form of posters or short papers) as well as scientific publications and direct exchanges in workshops. Details can be found in the “Agenda” section.

In addition to traditional topics on innovations in process management (e.g., Process Mining and Simulation) or the use of current technologies in corporate and IT architectures, as well as advancements in the digital transformation of our companies, we also focus on themes such as ethical principles, the application of AI in production and supply chain environments, inclusion, and sustainability.

In addition to expert presentations where researchers will showcase their findings on current issues, you can expect high-profile panel discussions, invited keynote lectures, and excellent networking opportunities. The poster exhibition in the lounge area will invite participants to discuss projects and innovative ideas over coffee and cake. The evening event will then provide many more opportunities for exchange in a relaxed atmosphere.

You can find further details on this website, which will be continuously updated. We look forward to your participation and the exchange of ideas.
