"We're excited to team up with The Sandbox and work with top creators, brands, and IP holders to unlock their full potential in the new era of digital entertainment and Web3," said Alexander Bushnell, CEO and Co-founder of Cosmo Media Labs. "The Sandbox is the leader of the evolving open metaverse space and its investment and support will allow us to accomplish this at scale. We are proud to work together to bring brands a clear understanding and strategy of how to best leverage the power of their IP within the new landscape of interactive entertainment and digital ownership."

"The metaverse is redefining the creator economy by growing a new ecosystem through sharing value creation between brands, creators, and the community," said Sebastien Borget, COO and Co-founder of The Sandbox. "We're excited to support the Cosmo Media Labs team through this investment as it is a production studio that can bridge between media and help shape the culture of the metaverse to bring the innovation of Web3 through new forms of experiences that provide an accessible and meaningful format of entertainment."
