SAP SE will work with OpenAI to bring the artificial intelligence company’s services, including ChatGPT, to Germany’s public sector.
The effort, called “OpenAI for Germany,” will offer services via SAP’s Delos Cloud, which stores data locally and in compliance with European laws, the two companies said in a statement on Wednesday.
SAP shares rose 2% on the news.
Europe’s largest technology firm has spent years ensuring that its software business adapt to threats from cloud-computing, and is now trying to do the same for the era of generative AI.
SAP previously invested in Aleph Alpha, Cohere and Anthropic, smaller startups trying to compete with OpenAI.
