SAP SE announced the opening of a new office at 135 Townsend Street in the SoMa neighborhood of San Francisco.
The location was strategically chosen to keep SAP at the heart of the technological advancement and growth happening in the city. Following a design based on extensive employee feedback, the office will help create new work experiences for SAP employees and allow closer collaboration with customers and partners.
“San Francisco is the capital of the tech industry and one of the top global markets for talent,” said Yaad Oren, managing director of SAP Labs US and head of SAP Innovation Center Network, SAP. “With more than 50% of the world’s venture capital funding deployed here, it is a vital region. SAP is doubling down on our commitment to this epicenter of innovation with our newest office and this next-generation approach to work.”

Building the Workplace of Tomorrow
SAP worked with design firm Spaces Of to create a 30,000-square-foot flexible office of the future. While more than 3,500 San Francisco Bay Area employees can use it, about 500 employees will use the location as their main office. Along with San Ramon and Palo Alto, this location gives SAP a footprint in every important corner of Silicon Valley.
The new office location was designed to accommodate a hybrid style of working. The space contains communal meeting areas, flexible workspaces and designated floors for focused or collaborative work throughout. The intuitive design is adaptable and easily updated to meet employee needs. Employees can leverage the amenities of all SAP offices in the region – their assigned office for team on-site days and regional outposts for self-directed collaborations or individual work.
