Svenskgrundat AI-bolag Listen Labs köps av Salesforce för upp till $2B

Swedish entrepreneur Alfred Wahlforss co-founded Listen Labs in San Francisco in 2023 with German Florian Juengermann after meeting at Harvard. The company uses AI language models to conduct and analyse consumer interviews at scale through voice, text, and video, attracting clients including Microsoft and Google. After launching in 2025, Listen Labs quickly reached annual recurring revenue of hundreds of millions of Swedish kronor. In early 2026, the company raised approximately SEK 630 million at a valuation of around $500 million. Salesforce has now acquired Listen Labs. Whilst no financial details were disclosed, Business Insider previously reported the deal was worth approximately $2 billion. Wahlforss will remain as CEO following the acquisition.

Salesforce stock up 44% in three months: Is the rally overpriced?

Salesforce (CRM) stock has surged 44% over the past three months, significantly outpacing the S&P 500's 3.5% gain. Despite this rally, the stock trades at 19.3 times trailing twelve-month earnings, below the S&P 500's 22.1 multiple. The company's net margin reached 22% over the last twelve months, near its highest level in a decade, up from 4.8% three years ago. However, revenue growth has slowed to 9.9% annually over three years, down from 13.3% over five years. Analysts expect fiscal Q3 2027 revenue of £11.6 billion, exceeding Salesforce's guidance of £11.42 billion to £11.50 billion. Contracted revenue due within twelve months grew 14% year-over-year to £33.5 billion, outpacing actual revenue growth. Salesforce's raised full-year forecast largely reflects pending acquisitions of Contentful and Fin rather than organic growth. The company reports Q3 results in early December.

Priyagold collaborates with Salesforce to modernize sales operations.

Priyagold collaborates with Salesforce to modernize sales operations. Salesforce SFA (Sales Force Automation) is standardising day-to-day sales processes and making it easier for field representatives to capture market activity, while giving managers clearer insight into execution and performance. Published on: 29 Sep 2026, 12:03 am Priyagold announced a strategic collaboration with Salesforce, the #1 Agentic CRM*, to transform its sales and distribution operations, connecting its field teams and distributors through a unified, data-driven platform. Priyagold has been built over three generations on product quality, consumer trust and one of the deepest distribution networks in Indian FMCG. Over the past three years, the company has been systematically modernising how it operates - re-engineering core processes and Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), strengthening its Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) backbone, building in-house teams for emerging channels and bringing data into everyday decisions. The collaboration with Salesforce extends that evolution to the heart of the business - the go-to-market engine itself. Salesforce SFA (Sales Force Automation) is standardising day-to-day sales processes and making it easier for field representatives to capture market activity, while giving managers clearer insight into execution and performance. Distribution Management is digitising distributor operations and consolidating information across the network. Together, across 2,000 field sales representatives and 3,500 distributors, these capabilities replace fragmented processes and multiple information sources with a single system of engagement, giving Priyagold a more unified view of sales and distribution operations across its network. Mannas Agarwwal, Director, Priyagold, said, "Our sales and distribution network was built over three generations - 2,000 field representatives and 3,500 distributor partners is a scale you earn, not install. My responsibility as the third generation is to give that network the technology it deserves: one source of truth, where every representative, every distributor and every manager reads the same numbers on the same day. This is not a software implementation for us; it is the operating foundation for Priyagold's next twenty years." Aditi Sharma, Vice President, Consumer and Manufacturing Industry Segment, Salesforce India, said, "For consumer-goods companies operating at scale, growth dependson the ability to connect field execution with timely, trusted insights. Salesforce is partnering with Priyagold's leadership to bring its sales and distribution ecosystem onto a unified platform - giving field teams greater clarity and managers stronger visibility across markets. This foundation will enable the company to operate more consistently today while preparing it to unlock new value through analytics, automation and trusted AI." Priyagold plans to deepen adoption across its field and distribution network and explore how analytics, automation and AI can support faster decision-making and sharper execution. The collaboration marks the beginning of a longer transformation journey - moving beyond the digitisation of existing processes towards a connected, intelligent and scalable operating model for the decades ahead.

Innovation City launches world's first AI registration powered by Salesforce's Agentforce.

Innovation City launches world's first AI registration powered by Salesforce's Agentforce. Reimagining company formation through AI-powered automation Salesforce and Innovation City set a new global benchmark for speed, compliance and entrepreneurship. Salesforce, the world's #1 AI CRM, and Innovation City, the UAE's premier AI-powered free zone, have announced the deployment of Salesforce's Agentforce to streamline and enhance the free zone's business registration services - introducing what Innovation City and Salesforce believe to be the world's first AI-powered registration platform of its kind. The new implementation combines AI platform capabilities powered by Salesforce with Innovation City's digital ecosystem, enabling businesses to access services and complete registration processes faster through more responsive interactions, while operating within Innovation City's established governance and regulatory framework. Agentforce provides Innovation City with a digital workforce of AI agents capable of autonomously executing defined tasks and workflows within established parameters, permissions and controls. This transforms company registration that once took days or weeks into a process completed in minutes. Human oversight is introduced only where strategic judgment or complex exceptions require it, while governance, security, and full auditability remain embedded throughout the process. Powered by Salesforce's trusted data and compliance architecture, the platform reduces friction across key registration and business processes, giving companies quicker access to the services needed to launch and expand their operations at Innovation City, while maintaining the controls and safeguards applicable to the company registration process. Innovation City's AI-powered registration platform demonstrates the potential of AI agents to transform company formation and related business services. For organizations ready to bring AI agents across their entire business, Salesforce offers Agentforce 1 - a complete edition that unifies AI agents, connected data, and built-in trust and governance in a single package, so companies can deploy digital labor across teams and workflows Sep 28, 2026 Prev Next 1 of 43,647 "We are not just digitizing bureaucracy - we are fundamentally transforming the company formation experience," said Paul Dawalibi, CEO of Innovation City. "This is the moment we move from talking about the future to living it. With Salesforce Agentforce, we have created an AI-powered registration platform that combines intelligent automation with the governance and oversight expected of a modern business jurisdiction. Ras Al Khaimah's Innovation City isn't just a free zone - we are building an AI-powered ecosystem where technology removes unnecessary friction and enables entrepreneurs to move from ambition to execution faster than ever before." This groundbreaking partnership supports the UAE's broader ambition to accelerate the responsible adoption of artificial intelligence and advanced digital technologies across services and the economy. Salesforce Middle East's partnership with Innovation City places both organizations at the forefront of this transformation, turning national ambition into tangible, lightning-fast opportunity for the world's most ambitious founders. Mohammed AlKhothani, General Manager and SVP, Salesforce Middle East, said: "Organizations across the Middle East are maturing beyond AI experimentation to actual measurable outcomes for entrepreneurs, start-ups, and enterprises. Agentforce brings autonomous digital labor to the heart of these processes; our AI agents act on data, workflows, and business logic to deliver faster, smarter, and more relevant experiences. Our partnership with Innovation City shows how Agentforce can safely simplify business processes, all while meeting enterprise-grade requirements for governance, data privacy, and trust."

Oracle's $165B AI data centre hits snag as shares plummet 55%

Oracle and Salesforce have underperformed the market over the past year, with Oracle's stock plummeting 55% and Salesforce down 3%, compared to the S&P 500's 16% gain. Both companies are investing heavily in artificial intelligence. Oracle is pivoting towards cloud infrastructure, securing major contracts with OpenAI, Meta, and Nvidia. First-quarter cloud infrastructure sales surged 121% year-over-year to $7.4 billion, with total revenue rising 30% to $19.3 billion. However, investor concerns are mounting over Oracle's aggressive AI spending. Capital expenditures jumped 235% to $28.5 billion in the first quarter. The company's $165 billion Project Jupiter data centre in New Mexico faces delays due to permitting and power supply issues, pushing completion beyond the original late-2028 target. These setbacks have spooked shareholders worried about the return on Oracle's massive AI infrastructure investments.
