About The Agora

The Agora, or "Agora" as it is commonly called, is often mistaken for a relatively small "publishing company" out of Baltimore, Maryland. In fact, what began as a half-dozen like-minded writers in a small city row home is now a collection of the world's most powerful privately owned media companies. The name "Agora" was initially given by Bill Bonner to those half dozen writers in 1978. The word is a Greek term for "marketplace." To Bill, he and his colleagues had conceived of the world's first marketplace for ideas. Not just any ideas - ideas that you weren't likely to get elsewhere. The world did not need any more "information." Today the name "Agora" is synonymous with icons of the alternative press, and masters of direct marketing.

About 14 West

14 West shares not only a long history but a heritage with The Agora, "a marketplace for ideas," and the only global network of its kind for the world's most innovative privately owned media enterprises. Today, those enterprises rely on 14 West to find them the talent they need in copy, editorial, digital marketing and technology to remain consistently at the helm of the industry at large.

With a diverse range of services and a unique breadth of experience in the media industry, 14 West holds the key to creating compelling, competitive workplaces and turning entrepreneurs and their ideas into evolutionary brands.

The key is people. People that will continue to drive those brands forward for another 40 years. People like you perhaps?
