Sandbox Events Sandbox NYC Summer Picnic in Central Park

Sandbox NYC Summer Picnic in Central Park

August 6th, 2009 by Christian Busch

Thanks to our very active members Dave and Mike (learn more about their venture HOLSTEE), another member-based initiative has taken place in New York City’s Central Park last weekend.

Around great food, covering everything from home-made Humus to Mike’s self-brewd special Pina Colada (which we hope to market at some point), and a beautiful panorama the Sandboxers discussed topics from social entrepreneurship to Sandboxer Lucian Tarnowski’s mega-event One Young World.

The high activity of the NYC chapter was also shown by the high quality of follow-up events, such as the one organized by the exciting entrepreneur Marissa Shrum around her new project IfWeRanIt.

During his week in NYC, Christian had the chance to meet a number of extraordinary young achievers, and while he’s still amazed by the visions and passions of these (potential) Sandboxers, he’s trying to focus and will write a note about it soon!

Christian is the Head of Business Development at Sandbox and simultaneously working on his PhD at the LSE in London. Currently he is visiting New York.
