WHO WE ARE.

The Sandbox is Let’s Do Something’s incubator, built to make Israel a global leader in defense innovation by backing the veterans and entrepreneurs driving it.
Our mission is to bridge the gap between those protecting our country and those building the solutions they need.
We support early-stage, product-driven defense and dual-use startups by accelerating development, reducing costs, and giving teams the freedom to take real risks—through full access to our lab, equipment, and technical guidance.
