At Dreamforce '17, we're celebrating our Trailblazers and their soaring productivity! We've spent years building Salesforce Lightning to be all about driving end-user productivity. In fact, customers who have moved to Lightning are reporting, on average, a 41% lift in productivity. That's huge! So we're adding a bit of magic to the Lightning Zone and Campground. You'll want to check out all of the amazing Lightning activities that we have in store for you, see the hundreds of killer Lightning features that we've rolled out since Dreamforce '16, and get primed on making the move the Lightning. Let's get to it!
Check out the Lightning Zone on the 2nd floor of Moscone West. This year, the theme for the zone is “Lightning Launchpad!” Lightning Launchpad is all about helping our customers take their business to the next level and soar to the highest levels of productivity. We'll have an immersive multi-player digital game where you can soar over a national park and collect simulated Trailhead badges! We'll also have a few Lightning Experience and Communities customization activities in our Lightning Customization area within the zone. You won't want to miss all the learning, fun, Lightning swag, and selfie opportunities at Lightning Launchpad.
OK, now I know what you're thinking. You're already excited about Lightning and want to learn how to make the move. We've got you covered. Over a dozen Lightning Ambassadors will be available at the Lightning Consultation area within Lightning Launchpad to help you plan your move to Lightning and arm you with a plan. Trailblazers who complete a Lightning Consultation will receive a Lightning-branded kite—fun for all ages! Planning to camp out at the Sales or Service Lodge throughout Dreamforce? Not a problem. You'll also find a Lightning Consultation station at the Service Cloud Lodge.
If you're craving content, we have tons of it! We have two Lightning Super Sessions that you'll want to bookmark, titled “Take Your Productivity to the Next Level with Lightning.” These are our Lightning Keynotes where you'll hear from our amazing customers, including T-Mobile, UPS, CrossMark, and CommScope, about their journey to create next-level experiences in Lightning. The first Super Session is scheduled on Monday, November 6 at 11:30 AM and located at the Metreon AMC, featuring T-Mobile and CrossMark. The second Super Session is scheduled on Wednesday, November 8 at 2:00 PM and located at the Marriott, featuring UPS and CommScope.
We'll also have three Lightning Roadmap Sessions that you won't want to miss: one for Admins, one for Developers, and one for End Users and Executives leveraging Lightning to work faster and smarter, every day.
An easy way to see all of the amazing Lightning content we have curated for you is to filter by the Dreamforce theme, “Lightning Adoption."
