The Millennium Alliance Goes Back-To-Back & Lists On The Prestigious 2025 Inc. 500 Ranking No. 2915 of America’s Fastest-Growing Private Companies

With Three-Year Revenue Growth of 141 Percent, This Marks The Millennium Alliance’s 3rd Time on the List

 NEW YORK, August 12, 2025 – Inc., the leading media brand and playbook for the entrepreneurs and business leaders shaping our future, today announced that The Millennium Alliance is No. 2915 on the annual Inc. 5000 list, the most prestigious ranking of the fastest-growing private companies in America. The list provides a data-driven snapshot of the most successful companies within the economy’s most dynamic segment—its independent, entrepreneurial businesses. Past honorees include companies such as Microsoft, Meta, Chobani, Under Armour, Timberland, Oracle, and Patagonia. 

Alex Sobol, Co-Founder & Managing Partner of The Millennium Alliance had this to say about Millennium receiving this incredible honor. “Being named to the Inc. 5000 again is an incredible honor and a testament to the relentless drive of our entire team. Over the past year, we’ve expanded our global footprint, delivered more high-impact C-Suite Assemblies and bespoke events than ever before, and continued to grow our digital presence — with the Millennium Live Podcast Series crossing the 10,000-subscriber mark and gaining even more traction with our executive community. The momentum we’ve built since our expansion into the EU market is fueling some of the most exciting opportunities in our history. This recognition reflects not only our growth, but the trust our clients place in us every single day, and I could not be prouder of where we’re headed next.”

 This year’s Inc. 5000 honorees have demonstrated exceptional growth while navigating economic uncertainty, inflationary pressure, and a fluctuating labor market. Among the top 500 companies on the list, the median three-year revenue growth rate reached 1,552 percent, and those companies have collectively added more than 48,678 jobs to the U.S. economy over the past three years.  

For the full list, company profiles, and a searchable database by industry and location, visit: www.inc.com/inc5000

“Making the Inc. 5000 is always a remarkable achievement, but earning a spot this year speaks volumes about a company’s tenacity and clarity of vision,” says Mike Hofman, editor-in-chief of Inc. “These businesses have thrived amid rising costs, shifting global dynamics, and constant change. They didn’t just weather the storm—they grew through it, and their stories are a powerful reminder that the entrepreneurial spirit is the engine of the U.S. economy.”

Inc. will celebrate the honorees at the 2025 Inc. 5000 Conference & Gala, taking place October 22–24 in Phoenix, and the top 500 will be listed in the Fall issue of Inc. magazine.
