Smyth is the only B2B Trailblazer globally and the only Commerce Cloud Crew recipient in North America to receive the honor this year.

The Golden Hoodie is one of Salesforce's highest community honors, bestowed upon Trailblazers who embody the spirit of "doing well by doing good." It celebrates individuals who use their expertise and platform to empower others, foster learning, and strengthen the global Salesforce community.

"I'm incredibly honored to receive the Golden Hoodie. I was simply doing what I love: sharing what I've learned and helping others grow," said Shane Smyth, CTO of Saltbox Mgmt. "The Salesforce community has given me so much over the years, and I'm grateful to be part of it."
