Düşünür, Yazar, Şair Levent Ağaoğlu Evlad-ı Fatihan ana babanın evladı olarak Fatih’te, Vakıf Gureba’da doğdu (1958), “Payidar ol evladım.” diyen büyüklerinin ellerini öperek Mutemet Sokak’da ve Akşemsettin’de büyüdü. Payitaht bir başka idi. Sultan Fatih Mehmed’in Tuğrasına nakşettiği tavır ve kararlılıkta olmayı seviyor: Hep Daim Her Daim. 1983 yılından buyana ihracat profesyoneli. 1997-2001 yılları arasında Hong Kong’da yaşadı; yaklaşan Büyük Asya Yüzyılı’nın ayak seslerini duydu hep.
İsmail Gaspıralı’nın “Dil’de, Fikir’de; İş’te Birlik” idealinin peşinde koşarak Türk Evi, Tefekkür, Teşebbüs kitap serileri üzerinde çalışıyor; mütefekkirane ve müteşebbis gözlem ve birikimlerini yazıya geçiriyor.
Marmara Üniversitesi Siyasal Bilgiler Fakültesi 1980, Boğaziçi Üniversitesi İdari Bilimler Fakültesi Kamu Politikaları ve Kamu Yöneticiliği 1984 (Yüksek Lisans)
Yüksek Lisans Tezi: Bir Kamu Politikası olarak Planlı Dönemde Türkiye’de İhracat Teşvikleri Uygulaması (1962-1986)
Yabancı Dil: İngilizce, Çince
Yazı hayatım
İhracat mesleğim gereği olarak dış pazarlar üzerine makaleler ile 1998 yılında yazı hayatıma başladım. Ağırlıklı olarak bizzat içinde yer aldığım Asya Pasifik pazarları ve Çin konularına yoğunlaştım.
1997-2001 yılları arasındaki beş yıllık Hong Kong deneyiminin ardından 2001 Haziran’ında Türkiye’ye döndüm ve 2002 yılında https://balkanpazar.org BalkanPazar web sitesini oluşturarak ansiklopedik bir içeriğe kavuşturdum, site Balkanlarla ilgili A’dan Z’ye bilgileri içermektedir. Bu esnada ihracat dışındaki ilk makalelerimi de yazmaya başladım.
Ardından 2014 yılında http://leventagaoglu.blogspot.com blog yazmaya başladım. Daha sonra https://www.agaoglulevent.com/, https://www.booksonturkey.com/ ve https://turkasya.com/ sitelerini oluşturdum.
2018 yılından başlamak üzere de kitaplar yayınlamaya başladım.
1997 yılından başlamak üzere yazdığım şiirlerimi de ilk olarak 2022 yılında kitaplaştırdım.
Zaman (Tarih) – Zemin (Coğrafya) – Zihin (Felsefe) üçgeninde gezinmek suretiyle Zikirden ziyade Fikire öncelik veren yazılar yazarak BooksonTurkey sitesinde yazılarını paylaşmayı seviyor.
