A WORD ABOUT MEMBERSHIPS
April 16th, 2008 by SandboxFollowing the launch of our site, some people have been asking us about how to become a member of the Sandbox network or to register for our first conference. So we thought that we’ll give you a short update and would love to get your feedback on it.
First of all, Sandbox is not only a conference, but aims to become a worldwide community for talents under 30. Registration for the first conference will thus only be possible if you’re a member of the Sandbox network.
This leads to the next question: How exactly does one become a member of Sandbox? In general, Sandbox membership is designed for young talents under 30 that have achieved something extraordinary in their field and turned their ideas into reality. We are very keen on emphasizing that Sandbox is open for talents from all parts of society: from the brilliant young researcher to entrepreneurs, from politicians to business people, we will try to bring together a diverse group of young people. Once the application process opens, everyone can apply for the network with a CV and specific information about his achievements. An independent selection committee, consisting of senior executives and Sandbox members, will then review every application and take a decision.
So, when does the application process open? Sandbox has only just launched, and we’re still very busy getting everything ready for our first member. We hope that application will start within the next four months and will keep you updated on this blog.
And while we’re not quite ready to look at your membership application, we would still love to hear from you! Leave us a comment on the blog, join our Facebook Fan page, follow us on Twitter or contact us directly.
