Case Study: Stanford SPARK streamlines research management and mentor matching with Cloud for Good Salesforce

Stanford Spark connects 60+ global institutions with Cloud for Good

Stanford SPARK, a translational medicine program at Stanford University, faced challenges with inefficient data tracking using scattered spreadsheets and Microsoft Access. This lack of a centralized system created organizational disconnects and an over-reliance on a single staff member. To solve this, they partnered with Cloud for Good to implement Salesforce Sales Cloud.

Cloud for Good implemented Salesforce to centralize program, project, and constituent data, providing a 360-degree view of participants. The solution improved efficiency in reporting, communications, and mentor matching, which in turn helped unlock new investor funding by showcasing program success. The platform also proved essential for managing the program's global expansion. Cloud for Good's work enabled Stanford SPARK to scale its solution for global operations and streamline its application process.
