Welcome to Agora. We’re so glad you’re here. So where is ‘here’ exactly? Well, a marketing agency I guess. We are a collection of creatives who are passionate about all things marketing and want to help your startups and SMEs thrive.
At the start of 2021, we decided to do what any sane person would do in a pandemic, start a business, obviously. Seeing entrepreneurs rising during COVID- 19 inspired us to take the plunge and do something to help. With a passion for people and business, we formed Agora, a home for small businesses with big dreams. Together, our goal is to work with the people at the heart of small businesses, offering marketing assistance, business advice and words of encouragement as we grow your small business or startup,
and turn your dreams into reality. ‘Agora’. Where in the world did we get that from? While looking for a word that represented the community we hope to build, we came across this and it just stuck. It is a Greek term which means, gathering place or assembly. The centre of athletic, artistic, business, spiritual and political life in the city. We want to be a central meeting place of sorts in our city. Somewhere minds meet, creativity flows and ideas grow into sustainable businesses for our clients.

Creative Assistant
Hi there! I’m Altus
I’m the designer that will take your brand and corporate image to the next level. I love all things design and marketing-related. My philosophy is simple – “The way you present yourself is just as important as what you have to offer.” Your image is a determining factor that could mean the difference between success or failure, and in this day and age – ‘ORDINARY’ – simply won’t make the cut! I’m the team member who will ensure your brand stands out from the crowd.
