Marc Benioff delivers an engaging and energetic social business keynote discussing the technology industry and its evolution over the last 60 years. He, like many voices of authority in the industry, envisions a future dominated by the Cloud. Today’s tech companies and brands are standing on the shoulders of giants. The leaders who came before them created a remarkable mainframe; from mainframe computing in the 1960s, to mini computing in the 1970s, to client service computing in the 1980s, to cloud computing in the 1990s, to mobile computing in the 2000s and social revolution of computing and business in the 2010s.

Benioff often refers to this current period of ‘social business’ as the customer revolution because it has completely transformed the way businesses interact with customers. Ever since social networks and platforms like Facebook and Twitter began to be implemented into the customer service policies of brands and companies, the industry has witnessed a 123 percent increase in customer interaction. Benioff’s social business keynote emphasizes the enormous shift to social media in the world today.

To an audience of over 15,000 individuals from the technology industry, chairman and CEO of salesforce Marc Benioff presented an exciting and lively consumer relationship speech. He kicked off his speech by touching on the importance of becoming a social enterprise and communicating online with consumers today.

He then discusses the role of Facebook in defining a brand. Benioff argues that Facebook is shrinking the web by dictating how brands are reaching out to consumers and how they are marketing products and services.

He then touches on the relevance of the mobile phone; more people today are browsing the web on their smartphone than they are on their PC. This social revolution has created a divide, however. While consumers are social and empowered, but are brands and their employees empowered? It is imperative that everyone become an active member of this revolution.
