This year Techonomy moves to the beautiful Ritz-Carlton Half Moon Bay, November 9-11, on the cliffs south of San Francisco, near Silicon Valley.
We’ll explore how technology transforms and accelerates progress for both business and society. Techonomy isn’t a tech conference; we’re interested in how technology transforms everything else. The world is facing myriad and urgent challenges, and we aim to help people better understand how tech can address them.
This year Techonomy moves to the beautiful Ritz-Carlton Half Moon Bay, November 9-11, on the cliffs south of San Francisco, near Silicon Valley.

[APPLAUSE] Kirkpatrick: Well, you know, I appreciate that, Marc, and I said in one of the things I wrote in advance of the conference that it was kind of apt to end with you, because you’ve been so supportive of Techonomy from the beginning and given me some extremely good advice on a number of occasions. And I guess maybe that’s something I wouldn’t mind, not talking about that exactly, but you have really always seemed to understand why we wanted to do Techonomy, which was to advance the collective understanding of business in particular, but government— Benioff: I didn’t really understand until you told me backstage why we do this. Kirkpatrick: Oh you did too! But anyway—that is why we do this. I mean, we’re not a tech conference. We’re trying to be a conference, as we like to say,...
