Every year, a global tribe of leading thinkers across disciplines and borders gets together to celebrate life and come up with new ideas to help each other grow, and have a positive impact in the world. After 10 years of an incredible journey as a community, we celebrate the Rebirth of our Nation. This is the video of the experience from this year's event in Obonjan, Croatia. http://globalsummit2017.strikingly.com/ Shot by Box of LIght Edited by Joseph Akwasi

Sandbox is a global community that is filled with impact-driven pioneers who value curiosity and creativity as much as ambition and accomplishment. We bridge geographies and disciplines, to create  opportunities for meaningful conversation, collaboration and discovery. Today, we are +1300 members across 40 cities and 5 continents.  

On top of being an ambassador for the Paris Hub and putting my service design skills to use with various internal projects like the redesign of the on-boarding process for members, I led experience design for Global Summits (yearly flagship event) in 2017, 2018 and 2022.

In 2017, we gathered 350 members on an Croatian island for one week – mixing discussions about the future of our community, personal and professional development and conversations about humankind at large / the future of our planet. 2018 took place in Kenya and was centered around the themes of diversity and the meaning of community during our time of Anthropocene. 2022 was a revival of the community after COVID-19 and we gathered in Mexico to share our growth and learnings after this world phenomenon.
