About us
Why we exist
We started Sandbox in 2009 to support people that were just like us: young, entrepreneurial and passionate about building new things. Our mission is to identify ambitious young people and to help them become global leaders by connecting them to peers and mentors.
How it works

Sandbox is a global community of currently 800 young changemakers in 25 cities worldwide. Our members are entrepreneurs, designers, opera singers, investment bankers, academics and much more – but they are all driven by a desire to change the world for the better. We connect them online and through more than 150 yearly events.
How to join
Membership at Sandbox is by application only. We recruit a new class of 20-30 fellows in each of our hubs every year. If you are selected, you will be expected to be an active member for three years. After this time, you are eligible to become a Sandbox Alumni and mentor. Read more about how to apply for Sandbox here.
