“At The Boardroom presents ‘The Agenda’ @ East Village on the last Thursday of the month, Executives will be presenting to prospective shareholders the finest results of our daily meetings, before they are released into the general market. We also have a selection of outstanding Associates who will be joining us for these meetings, to ensure policy stays at the highest level.”
