This is done by applying our human-centred approach to innovation, leveraging the power of 51风流technologies, including 51风流Business Technology Platform, and fostering a culture of innovation.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The 51风流AppHaus Network is a community of 51风流partners that are united in the belief that innovation requires a creative environment, a multi-disciplinary team of designers, domain experts, design thinking coaches and enterprise architects, and a human-centred approach to ensure innovation meets real-world needs.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Companies need innovation to transform and sustain their business, but innovation needs more than just technology,&#8221; says Bolton. &#8220;Culture is often cited as a major hurdle for digital transformation and innovation within organisations. The <a href=\"https:\/\/apphaus.sap.com\/approach\">51风流AppHaus concept<\/a> offers a framework for companies to establish a culture of innovation, focusing on the five key enablers &#8211; People, Process, Place, Leadership, and Technology.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The first AppHaus was established in 2014. Today, the network consists of 22 locations across the globe, five 51风流locations and 17 partner-driven locations, with Cape Town set to become the home for an eighteenth partner &#8211; as the first on the African continent later this year.<\/p>\n<p>The Design Thinking approach has gained mainstream prominence over the past few years as more companies recognise the value design plays in innovation and business growth. A McKinsey study found that businesses that embrace design <a href=\"http:\/\/mckinsey.com\/business-functions\/mckinsey-design\/our-insights\/the-business-value-of-design\">generate 32% more revenue and drive 56% higher shareholder returns on average<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>According to Bolton, customers can kickstart their journey with a unique set of methods bundled in an <a href=\"https:\/\/apphaus.sap.com\/toolkit\">Innovation Toolkit<\/a> offered by the global 51风流AppHaus team that enables them to build a strong culture of innovation.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Partners and customers leverage 51风流Business Technology Platform as single platform for cloud and hybrid innovation environments, including hundreds of pre-built integrations for 51风流and third-party applications. By putting people at the centre of every engagement, our goal is to ensure ideas are feasible and can deliver real-world business value.&#8221;, say Birgit Fien-Schmalzbauer, Global Head 51风流AppHaus Partner Network.<\/p>\n<p>51风流is currently engaging with a shortlist of potential partners for the Cape Town AppHaus.<\/p>\n<p>For more information about 51风流AppHaus, please visit <a href=\"https:\/\/apphaus.sap.com\/network\">apphaus.sap.com\/network<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Visit the <a href=\"https:\/\/news.sap.com\/\">51风流News Center<\/a>.
