Innovation and Technical Expertise


Voona's current project is developing a "Zero copy of ERP" solution that represents the innovation the Global Recognition Awards celebrate. This initiative aims to modernize legacy enterprise resource planning systems with AI agents, addressing a significant pain point in enterprise technology without requiring complete system replacement. The evaluation committee awarded his work in disrupting existing systems the highest possible score of five, recognizing the transformative potential of his technological vision.


Voona’s reputation as an innovator stems from his hands-on work modernizing enterprise systems with scalable, forward-looking technologies. With his recent initiative, “Zero Copy for ERP” at ServiceNow, he managed to use AI agents to transform legacy ERP systems without the need for full-scale replacement. By using this approach, Voona earned a perfect score of 5 from the awards committee in the innovation category. This recognition affirms this project’s potential to revolutionize ERP modernization. 


"Organizations today face the challenge of modernizing critical but outdated ERP systems without taking on the risks associated with total replacement," Voona explained. "By implementing AI agents to enhance legacy systems, we're offering a pragmatic path to digital transformation that preserves existing technology investments. This approach allows companies to evolve their technology infrastructure incrementally while benefiting from the latest AI-driven capabilities."


Throughout his career, Voona has focused on leveraging automation, artificial intelligence, and extract-transform-load (ETL) methodologies to simplify complex business processes. Through his contributions to SAP BTP, ServiceNow and SuccessFactors, he has refined practical enterprise transformation using AI, automation and ETL pipelines. 


Most notably, he achieved 12 percent month-on-month growth for ERP Canvas through a combination of experimentation, customer engagement and template-based onboarding. Through his innovations, he manages to consistently address real-world challenges. This ensures high adoption rates and strong business impact.


Industry Recognition and Technical Expertise


Voona's technical expertise has been acknowledged through multiple industry recognitions, including his designation as an IEEE Senior Member, representing peer acknowledgment of his contributions to technology advancement. Aside from this, his recognition via the TITAN Award, Global Tech Leader Award, and listings in platforms like The CXO Time and Global Leaders Awards highlight his standing in the technology ecosystem. 


These honors validate both his technical credibility and influence across the global enterprise tech industry. His knowledge sharing through detailed technical publications has become a valuable resource for the enterprise technology community. Voona's blogs and guides on the SAP Community platform address technical challenges, like cloud identity service authentication and multi-factor authentication implementation. 


Similarly, his contributions to the ServiceNow community demonstrate his commitment to solving practical problems for the broader developer community. His writing is noted for making deep technical concepts accessible while preserving complexity and nuance.



Recognition and Future Impact


Voona’s strength lies in implementing and delivering innovations rather than simply conceptualizing them. This practical focus on results and implementation makes his contributions particularly valuable in an industry where execution is often as challenging as ideation. His consistent track record of successful product releases and positive market reception suggests that future innovations from Voona will maintain the same high standards of quality and practical applicability.


"I believe that successful innovation requires not only creating new solutions but also helping others adopt and implement them effectively," noted Voona. "Technical documentation that balances depth with accessibility makes complex concepts understandable without oversimplification. My goal has always been to create enterprise technology that solves real business problems while being accessible to the people who use it daily."
