About Sandbox
Sandbox is a mobile society of young people who like to explore the world. We use technology and conversation to create a society of our design. We are an eclectic community of nomads, entrepreneurs, journalists, academics, politicians, and influencers from over 100 countries. We are digitally connected, democratic, and favour co-creation with the goal of leveraging our collective resources to meet the greatest challenges of our generation. Our values of openness, authenticity, playfulness, audacity, and trust characterise every interaction in the community.

About the Porto Hub
In Porto, we're a group of young entrepreneurs, journalists, politicians, artists, poets, and students who share a common vision of what the world should look like when we grow older. And we believe together we can better prepare for it.
In brief, we are demanding and prefer doing than saying. We are caring and we don't feel we belong unless we give what we can. We are ambitious and fear becoming complacent. We are proactive and available to challenge and be challenged. We offer a curated, but unstructured environment focused on learning and mutual support; not only in Porto, but also in more than 30 cities around the world.
Our hub is now recruiting its 2020 batch and we are looking forward to meeting you at one of our next events (see agenda below).
The deadline to submit applications for the 2020 batch is Monday, the 21st of September, 2020, by 23:59. You can do so by filling out the application form. We will contact you on the 25th of September to tell whether your application was successful and, if so, what are the next steps of the process.
Recruitment Events
If you had a group of dreamers, doers, and givers in the same room, what would you like to talk about? What is inspiring or bothering right now? This is what this event is for. Together, we’ll the define the topics for the (un)conference and the discussion will flow organically. No stage, no speakers. Join us!
This is a free event, but you must register in advance.
• September 14th, 18h30 - Online unconference
• September 17th, 18h30 - Offline unconference
