Celonis, a Munich-based process mining software developer, won a patent infringement ruling against SAP in Germany. The 7th Civil Chamber of Munich Regional Court, chaired by presiding judge Oliver Schön with judges Katalin Tözsér and Florian Schweyer, ruled that SAP's Signavio Process Intelligence software infringes a Celonis patent (case ID: 7 O 12849/25) (JUVE Patent, October 16). This is described as Celonis's first win in a broader patent battle against SAP in the process mining space (JUVE Patent, October 16). The dispute is significant as a marker of competitive and IP tension in the enterprise process-mining software market, where Celonis and SAP compete directly, and further rulings or appeals are likely.
