San Francisco has been home to Salesforce's (CRM) annual Dreamforce Conference for over 20 years, where CEO Marc Benioff and other industry leaders convene to showcase the latest in tech. San Francisco Mayor London Breed sits down with Yahoo Finance Executive Editor Brian Sozzi at the 2023 Dreamforce Conference to discuss the city's status as a beacon for tech development.

"San Francisco will continue to be a leader in innovation and technology, and it's the reason why you keep hearing the stories of people who are saying they're coming back... Even Elon Musk has committed to San Francisco," Breed says, emphasizing the city's reality from perceptions of crime and retail theft: "And so I think that the story and what people are trying to paint is a moment in time. It's the challenges that exist, with some of the issues that other big cities are facing all over the country."

Breed also details the boost Salesforce's conference has on the local economy, her journey into politics, and her reelection hopes.
