Sandbox Somerset, organized by Invade in partnership with Somerset Belt, and powered by the National Youth Council, is an annual event featuring 100 Somerset Youth founders spanning across the Creative, Retail, and F&B industries.

Sandbox Somerset celebrates the milestones that these founders, aged 35 and below, have achieved, and also serves as the platform to enable and present these inspiring founders as the next generation of industry leaders, allowing them to share their stories and innovations with everyone through the various activations such as network sharing, pop up opportunities, panel programs, and mentorship lined up for the event.
