"Our values are to help the world run better and improve people's lives," says Frank Omare, a senior director within the global value advisory team at SAP. 

He works with customers to help them understand how technology can solve critical business problems, transform their businesses – and enable their organisations to achieve sustainability-related goals.

Sustainability and social enterprise are central, not only to Frank's role, but to how SAP does business, he tells Heidi.

Frank talks about technology as a force for good (with a positive impact on the environment) and covers

• How the Ariba Network can connect social enterprises and minority-owned businesses with corporate organisations, opening a "world of opportunities" for all
• Why accessibility to corporate organisations supported by promotion in the network allows social enterprises to scale massively.
• SAP's technology and automated workflows to highlight social enterprises to corporate buyers.
• Partnerships and sponsorships with organisations such as Social Enterprise UK and the Social Enterprise World Forum.
• SAP's working culture and commitment to social enterprise.
• How SAP measures its own impact – and how it helps customers and suppliers to measure and increase their impact too.
• Exciting plans and emerging technologies and how these might support social enterprises.
• Other sustainability and social enterprise solutions within and across SAP.
