Founder story
SAP Fiori was created in 2013 by SAP SE in Walldorf, Germany. It was developed to address the growing complexity and steep learning curve associated with the classic SAP Graphical User Interface (SAP GUI). Originally launching with just 25 consumer-grade transactional apps, SAP expanded the system into the primary design framework for the entire SAP enterprise suite.
