This year, partners can expect broader and deeper integration celebrating joint customer success. And with additional content, networking, and activities, Dreamforce caters more to partners than ever before. Here are 5 reasons Salesforce partners can’t miss Dreamforce:
Monday, October 13 features two can't-miss keynotes for partners. The first is the AppExchange Partner Keynote at 9am, where you’ll learn about the trends in the market and the enormous opportunity around enterprise apps and mobile. You’ll also get the latest updates on the Salesforce1 platform and gather strategic insights from our program leaders. This session is for all ISVs, app providers and entrepreneurs looking to transform their ideas into big business in the cloud.
The second is the Consulting Partner Keynote at 11am, in which we’ll talk about the direction of salesforce.com’s partner program and partner enablement. Both keynotes will showcase the latest technologies, exciting program updates, and customer and partner success.
Kick off Dreamforce in style by attending the Welcome Reception at 4-6pm on Monday, Oct. 13, at the Westin Market Street. Come have a drink, network, mingle, and say hello. Take this opportunity to start your week by getting to know fellow attendees and partners.
New this year is the Partner Zone at Westin Market Street, a place where partners can hang out for the week and get their hands on the latest technology, connect with peers, learn about the Salesforce Partner Program, and attend over 60 partner sessions. In our Partner Zone, we are focusing on three elements:
1. Innovate with the latest technology
2. Connect with the partner community
3. Leading the future of business transformation
We’ll have a fun event and a photographer for your social media headshot. Plus, on Monday from 4-6pm, we'll have a beer and cheese tasting (what's not to love about that?). We’ll also have large areas for partners to hang out and connect, refuge areas to get some work done, and spaces to meet with others, connect, and have informal, ad hoc meetings.
We have 60+ partner sessions at Dreamforce this year. That includes kickoff, technical, app vendor, and consulting sessions.
The AppBash on Wednesday, October 15, is one of THE BEST parties at Dreamforce. Partners are welcome at 7pm to a private partner reception, and at 9pm we'll open the doors to our customers. City View overlooks the Plaza, and there is no better way to experience San Francisco and celebrate Dreamforce week. Not to mention, it’s an amazing opportunity for partners and customers to come together.
