Oracle OpenWorld 2014 is the place to be for sales professionals to stay informed, learn, and network. This year promises to be the best ever!
What’s New and Different?
We are centralizing all Oracle Sales Cloud conference sessions and the
Oracle Sales Cloud demonstration zone on the second floor of Moscone
West. It is called Sales @ CX Central and will be the headquarters for
all things CX Sales. Registered participants can attend sessions and
immediately experience live demonstrations on the same topic
conveniently located on the same floor. This will help participants
easily connect with Oracle product experts, implementation partners, and
customers with similar interests and challenges.
