Get excited – we are only three weeks away from Dreamforce!
Dreamforce is Salesforce’s pinnacle event that unites Trailblazers from all over the globe for three days of learning, networking, philanthropy, and fun. This year marks 20 years of Dreamforce, making it a cause for celebration. Inspiration will flow at this year’s keynotes with exciting speakers, like Jane Goodall, Jennifer Hudson, and Matthew McConaughey. Trailblazers are invited to sharpen their skills with 1,000+ sessions and workshops. Salesforce Park will be electric while the Red Hot Chili Peppers perform, benefiting the UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital.
With so many exciting options for how to spend your time at Dreamforce, you may be wondering how you can maximize your week to make sure you return home with the most valuable insights to help advance your organization. Lucky for you, Cloud for Good has compiled a list of events to optimize the Dreamforce experience for those in the Nonprofit and Higher Education sectors!
Salesforce.org Community Celebration
On September 19th, join fellow Trailblazers in the Salesforce.org community for a fun evening of networking. Hosted at the Exploratorium (an art, science, and human perception lab), there will be interactive experiences, specialty beverages, small bites, and vibes curated by DJ Michelle Pesce. Be sure to register because for every confirmed attendee Salesforce.org will donate $5 to the Exploratorium education program!
