Yes. So if they&#8217;re being discriminated against, yes we will fight for them. Does this mean that I have to fight for our customers? Of course, or even for our local stakeholders in our community, like our homeless. Every CEO has a responsibility to think about all stakeholders.\u201d<\/li><li>\u201cI strongly believe that when we serve all stakeholders, business is the greatest platform for change. Stakeholder capitalism is finally hitting a tipping point in the U.S. The Business Roundtable has stated that the purpose of a corporation includes a fundamental commitment to all stakeholders, not just shareholders, and that choosing between the two is a false choice.\u201d<\/li><li>\u201cSalesforce, through your mentorship, Klaus, is living proof that stakeholder capitalism works&#8230;We&#8217;ve had a phenomenal return for our shareholders: $165 billion in market capitalization, and a 4,000 percent return since we went public in 2004, but we&#8217;ve also had a very good return for our stakeholders. That includes 310 million in grants so far to worthy causes, and our employees have volunteered four and a half million hours for their local communities. And, 45,000 nonprofits and NGOs, including the World Economic Forum, use our product for free.\u201d<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Keith Block talks Digital Transformation with PayPal, Ericsson, NetHope and LumiLabs<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image__wrapper\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large prevent-download\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"wp-block-image__modal-toggle\" aria-expanded=\"false\" data-modal-id=\"20085-modal\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Open Image Modal<\/span><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"820\" height=\"457\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/08\/keitt.png?strip=all&#038;quality=95\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20085\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/08\/keitt.png 820w, https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/08\/keitt.png?w=300&amp;h=167 300w, https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/08\/keitt.png?w=768&amp;h=428 768w, https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/08\/keitt.png?w=264&amp;h=147 264w, https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/08\/keitt.png?w=500&amp;h=279 500w, https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/08\/keitt.png?w=678&amp;h=378 678w, https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/08\/keitt.png?w=150&amp;h=84 150w, https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/08\/keitt.png?w=346&amp;h=193 346w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 820px) 100vw, 820px\" \/><\/a><figcaption><em>Keith Block joined leaders from PayPal, Ericsson, and NetHope and LumiLabs to discuss shaping the digital economy on the morning of Tuesday January 21st at the WEF conference in Davos.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<div id=\"20085-modal\" class=\"image-modal\" aria-hidden=\"true\" aria-labelledby=\"image-dialog-title\"><div class=\"image-modal__overlay\" tabindex=\"-1\" data-a11y-dialog-hide><\/div><div class=\"image-modal__content\" role=\"dialog\"><button class=\"image-modal__close-button\" type=\"button\" data-a11y-dialog-hide aria-label=\"Close this image dialog window\"><svg viewBox=\"0 0 26 25\" height=\"16\" width=\"16\" fill=\"currentColor\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><rect x=\".626\" y=\"22.753\" width=\"32\" height=\"3\" rx=\"1.5\" transform=\"rotate(-45 .626 22.753)\"\/><rect x=\"2.747\" y=\".125\" width=\"32\" height=\"3\" rx=\"1.5\" transform=\"rotate(45 2.747 .125)\"\/><\/svg><\/button><h1 id=\"image-dialog-title\" class=\"screen-reader-text\">Image Modal<\/h1>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large prevent-download\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"820\" height=\"457\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/08\/keitt.png?strip=all&#038;quality=95\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20085\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/08\/keitt.png 820w, https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/08\/keitt.png?w=300&amp;h=167 300w, https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/08\/keitt.png?w=768&amp;h=428 768w, https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/08\/keitt.png?w=264&amp;h=147 264w, https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/08\/keitt.png?w=500&amp;h=279 500w, https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/08\/keitt.png?w=678&amp;h=378 678w, https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/08\/keitt.png?w=150&amp;h=84 150w, https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/08\/keitt.png?w=346&amp;h=193 346w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 820px) 100vw, 820px\" \/><figcaption><em>Keith Block joined leaders from PayPal, Ericsson, and NetHope and LumiLabs to discuss shaping the digital economy on the morning of Tuesday January 21st at the WEF conference in Davos.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Salesforce co-CEO Keith Block participated in a panel discussion with leaders from PayPal, Ericsson, NetHope and Lumi Labs focused on how we can shape the future of the digital economy.
