Sandbox Studios invests at the intersection of culture and commerce, backing companies whose edge comes from distribution. They focus on three areas: consumer brands built around cultural relevance, creator-led platforms for commerce, community, and attention, and infrastructure that turns influence into revenue. They’re raising a $25M Fund II and enter early, at pre-revenue, pre-seed, and seed. Recent initial checks have been $200K to $500K. Their pitch is that money is the least valuable thing they bring. They point to 20+ years of talent and IP experience, 350+ brand partnerships, and celebrity-linked portfolio ties such as Snoop Dogg with Dr. Bombay, Kris Jenner with Safely, Ian Somerhalder with The Absorption Company, Rihanna as a Destree investor, Anna Sarelly with Sarelly, and Eliud Kipchoge with Kotcha. Other portfolio names include Superfiliate and FruitScout. They’ve also run 10 co-investment vehicles since 2023 and offer direct co-investment to eligible investors.
