Shai Agassi says goodbye to employees

Shai Agassi personally wrote a letter on the SAP Network Blogs that included an e-mail sent to all employees of SAP:

"I remember five years ago, on the day I joined the SAP board, one of you asked me in a town hall meeting 'why am I at SAP?' The answer I gave was that 'I came to SAP to work and fell in love with the company'."

"I will now move on to my next challenge in life, hoping to apply what I have learned at SAP to create solutions for various problems that affect us all as a global tribe. I truly hope that my next set of challenges will be able to match the immense experience I gathered through my years at SAP. I leave the company with a heavy heart, feeling that I leave a home, yet I also feel that I am not leaving the family SAP has become for me. I hope to play some role in our community, and stay close to all of you – I am now your biggest fan."

We will continue to update you on related news as it unfolds.
