AGORA (N): A central space in Ancient Greece where philosophers met to exchange ideas, and merchants met to engage in commerce.
Entrepreneurship can be a lonely, confusing journey.
As an entrepreneur, you encounter new and unique challenges daily. The journey is an emotional rollercoaster.
One of the most effective ways to navigate these challenges and find support — both emotional and practical — is by learning from and connecting with others who are on the journey as well.
Modern entrepreneurship isn’t confined to the coasts or major cities. Entrepreneurs everywhere, pursuing freedom - and wealth as a means to that freedom - deserve the support of a like-minded community.
By joining AGORA, you instantly connect with a community of founders and entrepreneurs who are at the same stage as you, experiencing the same challenges, while sharing the same goal: freedom through entrepreneurship.

We are currently accepting applications for founders, owners, and CEOs of established businesses with at least $100k in revenue, who have not raised money from VCs.
A lot goes into the decision-making process for vetting members and curating peer groups. We also consider your personal background, your business, etc.
Above all else, we value members who we feel confident are going to give back to the community, and be collaborative, kind, and helpful.

Anyone can apply for membership through this application.
First, we evaluate your application and do an initial review to determine if you may be a potential fit for AGORA.

Curating peer groups is one of the most important and challenging pieces of the puzzle. It is our job to evaluate potential members and identify synergies to create a group of entrepreneurs who can all give and receive the most value possible.
All peer groups are curated in a manner that pairs entrepreneurs with other entrepreneurs at similar stages as them, while still allowing all members to be unique enough to learn and be challenged by one another.
