HanaHaus
At HanaHaus, the air is charged – and not just with Wi-Fi and espresso. We are a home for inspiration and ideas shaped by the people who use our space. Each of our locations is designed to encourage community, connection and creativity.

The name HanaHaus is a combination of the name of the in-memory platform SAP HANA and the German word “Haus”, reflecting the functionalist Bauhaus art school which was established in Germany in the 1920s.

Although HanaHaus is an extension of SAP’s innovation ecosystem, the space is not branded with SAP and is open to everyone in the community. From startups, to students, to freelancers, and everyone in between, HanaHaus is ideal for those that are not interested in a membership-based workspace model.

When defining the vision for HanaHaus, we took inspiration from the concept of European coffeehouses that originated in the 17th and 18th centuries. In order to recreate this atmosphere, we searched for a partner that would help bring our vision to life.

We wanted to provide a first-class coffee experience and fortunately, we found the perfect partner in Blue Bottle Coffee. Blue Bottle’s premier brand image and excellent selection of craft coffee aligned very well with the story we wanted HanaHaus to tell.

Founded in Oakland in 2002 by CEO, James Freeman, Blue Bottle was just a small venture-backed coffee startup in the Valley. In 2017, it was sold to the largest food and beverage maker in the world, Nestlé.
