After more than half a century at SAP, Hasso Plattner is stepping down as chairman of the supervisory board. He made the company what it is: the only world-class German software company. He leaves the big farewell words to others.
He doesn’t give a big farewell speech. At his last general meeting as chairman of the supervisory board of SAP, Hasso Plattner said just a few words as he said goodbye. “We have achieved a lot together, are the most valuable German company and a world-class group. This development fills me with great pride.” Otherwise, the 80-year-old leads through his last general meeting with experience and unimpressed.
