NEW YORK – April 14 2025 – The Millennium Alliance is proud to continue to give back through The Millennium Mission, its charitable endeavor that incorporates philanthropy into the Assemblies that Millennium’s members know and love. Ever since the COVID-19 Pandemic, at each Assembly the most engaged attendees have been awarded with a $1,000 donation in their name to the charity of their choice on behalf of The Millennium Alliance. This has allowed attendees to make an impact simply by participating in an Assembly, networking with their peers, and furthering their executive education journey. Some of the organizations Millennium has donated to in the past include Habitat for Humanity, The Alzheimer’s Association, and Feeding America. The Millennium Alliance is honored to do its part in making a difference within our communities. 

“Giving back to our community has always been and continues to be a core value of The Millennium Alliance. As a company, it means a lot to our entire team to pay it forward and show our gratitude for all of the success that we as a company are experiencing. This is exactly what led us to create our charitable program that will allow us to donate to an incredible cause after each one of our Assemblies. I am excited to see the total charitable amount continue to grow in the coming years, which has to date totaled over $100k.” Alex Sobol, Co-Founder, The Millennium Alliance

The Millennium Mission award winner for our Transformational CISO Assembly went to Michael Kennedy of Vertex Pharmaceuticals, who chose to make his donation to Angelcat Haven Feline Rescue. For our Transformational CHRO Assembly, Christy Nunley of AccentCare chose St. Jude’s. Carmine Valente from Paramount was the winner from our latest Transformational CISO Assembly, and he chose The Orphaned Starfish Foundation. Congratulations to our latest winners, and Millennium looks forward to making many more donations moving forward.

On the heels of another record-breaking year in 2024, Millennium is continuing to routinely reach many new company milestones every 12 months. A few of the key achievements from this past year have included the addition of 5 new event brands to its portfolio of in-person programs, opening a European Headquarters and successfully launching 3 European programs, increasing overall company revenue by over 53% from the previous highest number, and growing its internal team by 26%, now boasting a total global headcount of 142 employees.

Fast forward to a year later, I am proud that I find myself blown away because we have not just topped this previous record-breaking year but completely smashed through each one of our aggressive growth goals that we set for the company at that time. What excites me the most is where we will be as an organization a year from now, as the sky is the limit for our growing team full of the industry’s most talented and dedicated individuals.” Alex Sobol, Co-Founder, The Millennium Alliance
