In 2021, seasoned event producer Kelly Burns branched out from the corporate world to create AGENCYNESS, a full-service production agency focused on creating, designing, and executing multi-day conferences, employee engagement experiences, and brand activations for household brands.
Since then, we’ve grown to include specialists in production management, program operations, strategy & design, and customer experience.
“As we’ve grown our team focus remains the same: deliver exceptional results for our clients while simultaneously ensuring everyone gets a personalized experience.”
