The SAP Research Center Zurich is situated close to the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH Zurich). The center was founded in April 2007 as a strategic investment in the collaboration with ETH Zurich, a long-standing partner.

The primary goal of the research center in Zurich is to conduct application-oriented research in joint projects with academic and research partners, which are drawn from all over Europe. While it generates quality outputs in many domains, the center is providing special expertise in the major area of the "Internet of Things" and "Smart Items". One highlight of the combined efforts, the Future Retail Center (FRC), employs RFID and different sensor and mobile technologies. The FRC, located at the SAP location in Regensdorf and near the SAP Research Center Zurich, shows a real-world supermarket where a multitude of scenarios concerning retail trade, logistics, and storage of goods can be tested in-vivo or presented live to customers to prove suitability for daily use.

Research Environment

The SAP Research Center Zurich is embedded in and strongly interwoven with the worldwide network of SAP Research. Internationally, it is currently engaged in EU-projects such as BRIDGE, SOCRADES, and StoP - with twice as many new projects in the works. The close local collaboration of economy and science, qualified partner enterprises, and renowned research institutes pave the way for product innovations, which are of supreme relevance for trade and logistics.
