🌟 Scaling Design Systems at SAP: 13 Years of Fiori and Beyond
What does it take to scale a design system across one of the world’s largest enterprise suites?
The SAP Design System for Web team will share how they scale design across technologies and organizations, embed accessibility as a product standard, and evolve their Figma UI kits to support the entire SAP Business Suite.
With Bart Meeuwssen (VP SAP Design System for Web), Wendy Fox (Accessibility Lead), and Janina Fichtner (Lead Figma Tooling & Kits), you’ll get a look into the strategy, setup, and tooling that keep one of the world’s largest design systems moving forward.

🌟 Beyond Components: Solving Legacy with Design Systems
“The hardest legacy to replace isn’t code — it’s how we work.”
Even with mature systems, teams still wrestle with legacy: multiple table components, scattered docs, and designers and developers in parallel universes.
We’ll break down the different types of legacy and explore how design systems help entire companies move with shared language and purpose. Design system work is 20% components, 80% communication. The system isn’t what we build—it’s how we build together.
