The London World Tour was the biggest Salesforce event outside of Dreamforce –thanks to the 9,600 attendees! Last Thursday at the ExCeL Centre, Admins brought incredible energy to the Trailhead Zone– from the standing-room-only Admin Theatre to the Ask the Expert booths, Admins were everywhere. Check out the photos of the fun here.
There was also a packed Admin User Group meeting on Tuesday where content for admins, by admins was shared. If you’re in London and haven’t joined the London Admin group on the Success Community, you should. It will be your go-to group for all admin-related questions AND a great community of new friends!
Salesforce Administrators are known to go above and beyond, making a lasting impact both inside and outside of their organizations. Before the keynote, Louise Lockie was awarded the London #AwesomeAdmin award due to her extensive work with an org of 300 users and onboarding 22 offices in 8 countries to Salesforce. Louise is also extremely involved in the local Salesforce community. She regularly speaks at user groups and co-leads the London Salesforce Women in Technology Group. Congrats, Louise!
Salesforce Administrators love to hear from other Admins. For the entire day, the Admin Theatre was bustling with Admins looking to learn from the community. The theatre presentations have been posted and are linked below.

For years, Salesforce Admins have been the stewards of automation. We build flows to move records, approval processes to slow things down, and guardrails to ensure the system does exactly what the business asked—and nothing more. Agentic AI changes that relationship. When you introduce agents into your org—especially agents that can reason, remember, and act—you’re […]
Flows are massive. You’re sitting there with a business requirement, staring at that “New Flow” screen, and you don’t know which flow type to choose. It can be intimidating, for sure. You may choose a flow type and start to build it, only to find out partway through that the flow type won’t work. Now, […]
