I had been thinking a lot about what is Salesforce\u2019s strategy around blockchain, and what is Salesforce\u2019s strategies around cryptocurrencies and how will we relate to all of these things. He is actually a big believer in the power of serendipity, and he said just by having that conversation, it started him down the road to thinking more seriously about Salesforce\u2019s role in this developing technology. He said the more he thought about it, the more he believed that Salesforce could make use of Blockchain. Then suddenly something clicked for him and he saw a way to put blockchain and cryptocurrencies to work in Salesforce. That\u2019s kind of how it works and I hope by Dreamforce we will have a blockchain and cryptocurrency solution.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The dialogue he had with the person in Davos has enabled Benioff to recognize an opportunity to expand Salesforce in a meaningful manner. The co-founder believes that success depends on choosing the right ideas which are most important for customers.<\/p>\n
Benioff<\/strong> added <\/p>\n\u201cThat\u2019s kind of how it works and I hope by Dreamforce we will have a blockchain and cryptocurrency solution.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Dreamforce is Salesforce\u2019s annual customer conference. It is planned to be held this year from September 25-28 in San Francisco. By then, if everything goes as planned, the company could be announcing a blockchain product during the event.<\/p>\n
