SAP CEO Bill McDermott on Friday hosted a talk themed “Winners Dream” with students of the Ha Noi University of Science and Technology (HUST).

During the talk, Bill inspired hundreds of HUST students with his entrepreneurship spirit and dares to dream through his life stories of growing up in working-class Long Island, New York to the top position of the world’s business software market leader.

He also presented his worldwide best-selling autobiography “Winners Dream: A Journey from Corner Store to Corner Office” to HUST students in which he shares his life stories and leadership lessons.

Since becoming CEO in 2010, Bill’s innovation-led strategy for SAP has resulted in expansive increases in customers, total revenue, market value and profitable growth.

SAP is the world leader in enterprise applications in terms of software and software-related service revenue. Based on market capitalisation, SAP is the world’s third largest independent software manufacturer.

In July HUST and SAP signed a memorandum of understanding to collaborate on enabling youths for the Fourth Industrial Revolution. — VNS
