About The Agenda Company.

The Agenda Company is a boutique professional event management firm based in Phoenix, Arizona, founded by Jessica Barreras.

Our story

Bringing editorial structure to the moments that matter.

The Agenda Company was built for organizations that believe professional gatherings should be clear, useful, human, and worth the time. We bring editorial structure to the moments that matter: we design the agenda, manage the moving parts, and make sure every meeting, tour, and learning experience leaves behind something useful.
