Sandbox Summit is a series of conferences designed to address how technology affects the ways kids play, learn, and connect in today's digital world. Through high-energy panels, innovative demonstrations, original research and thought-provoking discussions with industry leaders, journalists, analysts, and educators, Sandbox Summit brings an added dimension to corporate conversations. The goal of the Sandbox Summit is to ensure that the next generation of players becomes active innovators rather than passive consumers of technology. To learn more, visit sandboxsummit.org.
