The Trailblazer Community comes out in force during Dreamforce, and it's an incredible opportunity to get engaged in this thriving professional community that's all about helping each other blaze trails with Salesforce. Here are four great ways to connect with the Trailblazer Community.
There's an awesome gathering spot for community members in the Trailhead Zone on the first floor of Moscone West. Drop by to learn about all the ways you can get involved — from Community Groups to online answers. While you're there, be sure to spend some time at our Community Tables where you can write a gratitude card, share your wisdom with students in our community-led programs, and make some new friends at the conversation table! If you've been engaged in the community for a while, you may want to plan your visit around one of our Community Campfires - casual chats with Community Leaders who lead incredible programs to help everyone succeed with Salesforce. Check out the Community Campfire schedule in Quip.
Hundreds of Salesforce MVPs and Community Group Leaders will be all over campus doing what they do best — connecting, speaking at sessions, inspiring, learning, and generally having a wonderful time. You'll probably be able to spot them by the positive #Ohana energy that surrounds them, but you can also be on the lookout for these pins:
Salesforce MVPs: 200+ Salesforce MVPs who have been honored and awarded MVP status for their exceptional contributions to the Trailblazer Community. Don't be shy just because they wear this pin. Many of these MVPs were new to everything just a few years ago! And others have been along for most of the 18 year ride! In any case, MVPs love to help and they have so many awesome ideas to share.
Community Group Leaders: Community Group Leaders volunteer their time to lead hundreds of local and special interest groups around the world. That's love! Community Groups typically meet monthly - live or online - to learn Salesforce, have fun, and give back together. Many of our most successful community members say their Salesforce career journey took off when they joined their local user or developer group. If you'd like to hear some of those stories, introduce yourself when you see a smiling face wearing one of these pins!
Whether you're joining us in San Francisco or online, there's no time like Dreamforce to jump into the in the online conversations. Follow the Salesforce MVPs, #DF17 on Twitter and join tons of Dreamforce Collaboration Groups on the Trailblazer Community.
Dreamforce learning and fun can't stop, won't stop until 200+ local gatherings happen in November and December. Your local Community Leaders will put together a custom schedule of the very best content for their groups interest and skill level. And there will be lots of networking, fun, and of course swag, too. Find your closest Dreamforce Global Gathering and sign up now! Many have limited capacity venues, so don't wait!
