    Unlocking Salesforce for PE: Interview with Salesforce Ben

    Season 3 of the Preferred Return podcast is here! We are thrilled to kick off the first episode with a special edition featuring a Salesforce celebrity guest.



    Being purpose-built atop force.com, Altvia’s platform benefits from Salesforce’s powerful infrastructure and ecosystem, which allows us to focus on solving the daily workflow challenges that plague alternative asset professionals. It also gives us access to Salesforce thought leaders and partners to better understand how to properly leverage the powerful platform.



    We are excited to share that we had the privilege of sitting down with one of the more well-known name in this arena, Salesforce Ben, for a conversation about how we are leveraging Salesforce to provide a best-in-class experience within the private capital market. The conversation between Salesforce Ben’s founder, Ben McCarthy, and Altvia’s Chief Strategy Officer, Jeff Williams, explores the ethos that has driven Salesforce Ben’s success today, the power of the Salesforce ISV and OEM ecosystem, the crucial role of domain-specific providers with industry expertise, and, of course, the hot topic of AI.
