Every year in November, hundreds of thousands of developers, tech architects, admins, consultants, visionaries and other professionals from across the world come over to San Francisco to attend the biggest 4-day event hosted by Salesforce – Dreamforce. In 2019, over 170,000 professionals attended the event which is claimed to be the one of the biggest tech conferences in the world. Typically, Salesforce Dreamforce events are held in San Francisco. However, due to the pandemic, for the first time in 17 years, Dreamforce 2020 will be conducted virtually. Though this is heartbreaking news for some, the conference being held virtually opens up an amazing opportunity for millions of people around the world for whom it isn’t feasible to visit California.
