SYNC' VNSG & SAP Event NL – 12 March 2026

The SAP landscape is evolving faster than ever. Organizations are navigating S/4HANA transformations, re‑evaluating licensing models, strengthening internal controls and seeking simplicity in their compliance processes. In the midst of this shift, events that unite SAP professionals have never been more important. That’s why we are proud to announce that CERPASS is an official sponsor of the SYNC’ VNSG & SAP Annual Event 2026, taking place on 12 March 2026 at De Woonindustrie in Nieuwegein, Netherlands. As a sponsor, CERPASS is committed to investing in the SAP community’s growth, collaboration and shared learning. The VNSG network represents more than 9,000 SAP professionals across hundreds of organizations, making this event one of the most influential gatherings in the region. We’re honored to support an event that empowers organizations to refine their SAP strategies and prepare for the future. Why Sponsoring SYNC' 2026 Matters to CERPASS Our mission has always been to deliver Simple, Affordable, Fast and Easy (S.A.F.E.) compliance for SAP-driven organizations. Sponsoring SYNC' allows us to amplify that mission on a global stage. Here’s why this sponsorship is so meaningful: 1. Supporting a Community in Transition From SAP Cloud ERP Private (formerly RISE with SAP) to the evolving Full User Equivalent (FUE) licensing model, the SAP community is undergoing significant transformation. Many organizations are refining their access governance, modernizing controls and looking for new ways to reduce licensing overhead. SYNC' offers deep insights into these transitions — including sessions on migrations, licensing optimization and modernization strategies. By sponsoring, we’re enabling more organizations to access the knowledge they need to navigate these changes confidently. 2. Investing in Collaboration and Shared Learning The event is built around themes of connection, collaboration and the future of SAP technologies. Sponsorship allows us to help facilitate the exchange of expertise across industries, roles and levels of SAP maturity. For CERPASS, this isn’t just a branding opportunity — it’s an investment in strengthening the community that our solution is built to serve. 3. Embodying the Spirit of #simpleGRC Traditional GRC frameworks are often complex, expensive and slow to deliver value. Our presence as a sponsor demonstrates our commitment to changing that narrative. We’re championing a future where compliance is accessible, usable and aligned to real business needs. At SYNC' 2026, we will demonstrate how CERPASS puts #simpleGRC into practice, helping organizations to: Reduce manual compliance workload Gain visibility across access, risk and controls Modernize SAP governance with automation Improve audit readiness Strengthen SAP security posture This sponsorship signals our dedication to helping organizations transform compliance into a strategic advantage.
