• Siemens has partnered with SAP HANA Cloud Platform to build the Siemens Cloud for Industry
powered by SAP HANA Cloud Platform as an open cloud platform for analyzing large datasets in the
industry
• Siemens plans to create an open IT ecosystem for OEMs and application developers based on SAP
HANA Cloud platform.
• Last year launched a new, $100 million fund to back early-stage startups working in the areas of
Industrial IoT
