• Total Economic Contribution: SAP Canada contributed approximately $1.34 billion in GDP and supported over 6,924 jobs in 2021, amplifying from its direct contributions of C$1.5 billion in revenue and C$892 million in GDP.

• Multiplier Effects: For every C$10 of direct GDP and employment generated, SAP indirectly supported C$5 more in GDP and 1.2 additional jobs.

• Productivity: SAP's labour productivity (GDP per employee) was nearly C$283,000 in 2021, significantly exceeding the Canadian average of C$121,000.

2. Distribution Across Provinces

• B.C. accounted for the highest employment and R&D spending (38% and 53% respectively), followed by Ontario and Quebec.

3. Industry Contributions

• SAP’s indirect and induced effects significantly supported the finance, insurance, retail, and professional services sectors.

4. R&D and Exports
