Paul Kurchina
Having spent 25 years improving business operations in SAP and other industry technologies, Paul Kurchina is now a Community Builder and Evangelist with Americas' SAP User Group (ASUG).

And as Industry Analyst, he keeps track of developments in existing and new technologies to improve business performance of corporations.

He served twice on the ASUG Board of Directors.
