How the Slack Acquisition Helps Vancouver’s Tech Scene

Salesforce recently acquired Slack, a company founded by Stewart Butterfield, for $27.7 billion. Slack is a modern enterprise messaging platform and Salesforce is a tried-and-true CRM tool. The Vancouver Tech community has been following Butterfield’s story closely to learn from his expertise. As Butterfield continues to grow multi-million dollar businesses, Vancouver's tech scene will continue to grow with him. This acquisition will hopefully mean new jobs and opportunities for Vancouverites and a boost in our local economy.
