Our editors share their must-see session picks for the first day.
The scale is breathtaking — 2700+ breakout sessions, keynotes, volunteer events, cloud sneakers, parties, meditations, dancing mascots, a national park installation, and more. Greater than a mere tech conference, Dreamforce is an expression of how business can be a platform for change.
