Dreamforce 2024 Highlights Hosted By Gerent

Join Gerent at Dreamforce 2024 for light bites, industry sessions, and an all-industries happy hour!

Imagine three days of thrills for the thinkers and the doers, from jam-packed sessions and keynotes to exclusive Einstein learning experiences: Dreamforce is almost here! Of course, for those planning their itineraries, it can be hard to choose from the hefty line-up of 1,500 expert-led sessions, workshops, and demos Dreamforce has to offer.

But the fun isn’t limited to the main venue. This year, Gerent will be posting up at Buena Vida Cantina — the best casual Mexican restaurant you’ll find within walking distance of the Salesforce Tower — to provide two full days of ecosystem engagement for our collaborators, customers, and colleagues.  This is a pop-up you won’t want to miss; plan for industry-expert sessions and networking opportunities, and even an all-industries happy hour!
