As Go Code Colorado comes to a close for another year, we’d like to take a moment to thank the people and organizations who have made year two a roaring success. One of our key partners this year is Salesforce, a leading CRM and cloud computing provider. As a company that manages and processes data on a massive scale every day, it’s heartening to know that they are supporting local open data initiatives that foster technology-driven economic growth and innovative thinking.
Whether you’re a developer, a marketer, or somewhere in between, Salesforce offers a variety of products and services that can make the process of scaling your business more efficient.
Other interesting facts about Salesforce:
- CEO Mark Benioff is famous for his “1-1-1 Model” of integrated corporate philanthropy which includes donating 1% of company product, equity, and staff time into charitable endeavors. To date, they’ve given out over $85,000,000 in grant funding, and 920,000+ volunteer hours.
- Through their philanthropic efforts, they’ve provided assistance to groups across the globe like the American Red Cross, the Australian Cancer Research Foundation, and the Asian Women’s Welfare Association.
- Headquartered in San Francisco, and with regional headquarters in Switzerland, India, and Japan, Salesforce is ranked #7 on Fortune magazine’s Best Companies to Work For.
We’re very thankful to have the generous support of partners like Salesforce who are helping to support a thriving technology and innovation community right here in Colorado.
