Detailed Biography of Marc R. Benioff
|
|
Marc R. Benioff is chairman and CEO of salesforce.com. He founded the company in March 1999 with the idea to create an information utility that would make traditional enterprise software technology and business models obsolete. A veteran of 25 years in the software industry, he is now regarded as a pioneer of "The End Of Software," demonstrating how on-demand applications can replace traditional software to deliver immediate benefit at reduced risk. In May 2003, Benioff was appointed by President George W. Bush as co-chair of the President's Information Technology Advisory Committee (PITAC), a bi-partisan organization of business leaders and academics charged to advise The President on how to maintain the United States' preeminent position in information technology. In 2002, Benioff was chosen as a Global Leader of Tomorrow by the members of the World Economic Forum and awarded a Computerworld Honors Laureate for his visionary use of information technology to produce positive social change. In addition, for his work in catalyzing technology change, Benioff was named 'Entrepreneur of the Year' by SunBridge, the leading incubator in Japan, honored by CRM Magazine as one of the 20 most influential people in the industry, and recognized by Network World magazine as one of its elite 25 Most Powerful Vendor Executives. In July 2000, with Colin Powell in attendance, Benioff launched the salesforce.com/foundation, a multi-million dollar global philanthropic organization designed to serve the underserved by integrating philanthropy with business. The salesforce.com/foundation's pioneering "1 percent solution" - the company contributes 1 percent of profits, 1 percent of equity, and 1 percent of employee hours back to the communities it serves - has successfully demonstrated the power and impact of integrated philanthropy. In April 2003, the Foundation was lauded by the Points of Light Foundation, and bestowed the Award for Excellence in Corporate Community Service. In 1999, Benioff received the Promise of Peace award from the Prime Minister of Israel Benjamin Netanyahu for his work using information technology as a bridge to further Middle East peace, and the Bridge Award from the non-profit organization HEAVEN (Helping Educate, Activate, Volunteer, and Empower via the Net) for his work of providing internet access to the underserved in America's inner cities. Prior to founding salesforce.com, Benioff spent 13 years at Oracle Corporation, holding a number of leadership positions in sales, marketing, and product development. Most recently, he was a senior vice president reporting to company chairman Lawrence J. Ellison, a founding investor and board member in salesforce.com. In 1995, he was awarded "True Friend of The User Community" from the International Oracle Group, the highest award an Oracle executive has ever received from its users. In 1987 he was awarded "Rookie of The Year" recognizing his first year's performance at the company. Prior to Oracle Corporation, Benioff held positions at Apple Computer and Liberty Software. Benioff received a B.S. in Business Administration from the University of Southern California in 1986.
