LinkedWorld: Two Years Connecting Talent and Boosting SAP Growth

03 July 2025

LinkedWorld, an international alliance of SAP consultancies, kicked off in 2023 to tackle a shared challenge: making it way easier to roll out SAP projects across different markets by knocking down legal, cultural and technical hurdles. This year marks its second birthday, and it’s now a global network of over 31 consultancies in 18 countries, spanning six key regions.

Where It All Started

When companies running SAP decide to expand beyond home turf, they usually hit snags—regulations, language barriers and wildly different processes. That’s why LinkedWorld was set up as a true one-stop shop, offering:

  • Standardized SAP rollouts with tried-and-true templates and methodologies
  • Local, multilingual support tuned into each country’s tax and accounting rules
  • Seamless integration of SAP Business One, S/4HANA Cloud, SAP ByDesign, SuccessFactors and SAP Analytics Cloud
  • Early access to roadmaps, proofs of concept and new SAP products

Six founding partners brought local know-how and SAP certifications to the table:

  • Greater China: MTC
  • Europe: Versino
  • North America: Vision33
  • Middle East & Africa: Abacus Cambridge
  • Asia-Pacific: Inecom
  • Latin America: Ramo (Brazil)

Thanks to that solid foundation, LinkedWorld has helped over 10,000 clients and delivered more than 5,000 global projects in its first two years, sparking partner collaboration and tech innovation.

What They Offer

LinkedWorld’s value proposition rests on three pillars:

    1. Process Standardization
    2. Local Coverage & Support
    3. Tech Diversity

Their portfolio includes:

  • SAP Business One and S/4HANA Cloud (public & private editions)
  • SAP Analytics Cloud, Ariba, Concur and Business Technology Platform
  • SuccessFactors, ByDesign plus connectors for ECC and Salesforce

That mix accelerates deployments, cuts costs and ups service quality—making LinkedWorld a go-to name in the SAP mid-market.

Why SAP Backing Matters

SAP’s endorsement is a game-changer for LinkedWorld. Key perks include:

  • Global visibility at events like SAP Sapphire and Partner Kick-Offs
  • Co-marketing opportunities and entry into programs like SAP Grow and RISE with SAP
  • Close ties to product leaders for early intel on launches and roadmaps
  • Reputation boost, since every member is SAP-certified

With that hookup, LinkedWorld partners stay ahead of trends—SAP Joule, AI Foundation and new S/4HANA Cloud features—so they always lead on innovation.

Looking Ahead

After two years, LinkedWorld’s still growing:

  • 31+ consultancies in 18 countries
  • Helping businesses of all sizes go global
  • Launching industry-specific, vertical projects
  • Keeping a pipeline of emerging SAP tech

Down the road, they plan to dive deeper into AI and analytics, expand into new markets and keep being the go-to bridge for companies aiming for limitless digital growth.
