Summary
Salesforce has announced that its annual Dreamforce conference will remain in San Francisco for 2024. This decision comes after CEO Marc Benioff suggested that the conference might leave the city, but later praised the conditions of this year's event. Other technology companies have chosen to move their events elsewhere due to concerns of homelessness, drug use, and theft in parts of the city. Salesforce wanted to ensure that the city could provide sufficient police presence and keep the sidewalks clean before committing to staying in San Francisco. The article also mentions the economic impact of the conference and the decline in drug overdose deaths and homeless population in the city.
