Capgemini’s generative AI excellence for clients using Salesforce
Capgemini has been working with clients on generative AI for some time and focuses on helping organizations define their generative AI strategy, select priority use cases, and develop and deploy them at scale.

Delivering a new era of passenger experience with Capgemini and Salesforce
Capgemini and Salesforce have been working together to support several leading brands in their CX journey, helping them deploy generative AI to meet the challenges of delivery industrialization and agility at scale. For example, Capgemini has been helping Heathrow Airport revamp its passenger experience through its Generative AI for CX offer. Capgemini has helped drive value across Heathrow’s passenger lifecycle by implementing new-age eCommerce and other passenger service solutions.
“At a time when quality of service is paramount, our partnership with Capgemini is helping us enhance the experience of the passengers that travel through our airport,” said Pete Burns, Director Marketing and Digital, Heathrow Airport Limited. “With Capgemini’s CX expertise, we are beginning to use Salesforce’s generative AI solutions to assist, empower, and delight passengers with faster and more personalized customer service.”
This collaboration will allow joint clients to benefit from Salesforce Einstein, accelerating their customer experiences and company productivity with generative AI. The Generative AI for CX Foundry will initially leverage Service Cloud and the Einstein Trust Layer with the intent to expand its suite of capabilities to help clients deliver business value across marketing, sales, service, and commerce.
