Here’s Bret Taylor’s first big technical move at Salesforce since becoming co-CEO last year
Ten months after his promotion to co-CEO of Salesforce, serving alongside famed founder Marc Benioff, Bret Taylor is gearing up to take the stage at the annual Dreamforce conference for the first time under his new title.
A career technologist with a master’s degree in computer science from Stanford, Taylor acknowledged to CNBC that Salesforce’s big product unveiling for this year’s event is “unabashedly geeky.” It’s called Genie, and it’s designed to update Salesforce’s dominant sales database software with modern technology that gives salespeople real-time information at their fingertips.
