SAP Labs India is the third largest research and development (R&D) center of the company outside Germany, and contributes to a wide spectrum of SAP’s products.
“Clas Neumann, senior vice president and global head of the SAP Labs Network will work closely with the SAP Labs India leadership team to ensure a smooth transition till a new MD is appointed,” the company said in a release.
This is the second exit of a senior-level Indian at SAP, as earlier this year the company has seen the resignation of Vishal Sikka, who went on to join India's second largest information technology (IT) services company, Infosys. Sikka was also a member of SAP's executive board.
