Posted on August 19, 2024October 22, 2024 by milladmin

NEW YORK – August 19, 2024 – Inc. revealed today that The Millennium Alliance ranks No. 2,122 on the 2024 Inc. 5000, its annual list of the fastest-growing private companies in America. The prestigious ranking provides a data-driven look at the most successful companies within the economy’s most dynamic segment—its independent, entrepreneurial businesses. Microsoft, Meta, Chobani, Under Armour, Timberland, Oracle, Patagonia, and many other household-name brands gained their first national exposure as honorees on the Inc. 5000.

Alex Sobol, Co-Founder & Managing Partner of The Millennium Alliance had this to say about Millennium receiving this incredible honor. “It’s been a wonderful 10 ½ years helping to build Millennium. We were a very strong business right before the COVID pandemic broke out and have been absolutely on fire since the end of 2021 & beginning of 2022. Millennium now has operations on two continents with the expansion earlier this year into the EU market, which is all being spearheaded via our London headquarters. This year included additional milestones such as surpassing the 100-employee count earlier in the year, running over 70 of our flagship multi-day C-Suite Assemblies, contracting for close to 200 private bespoke events for some of our most favorite clients, and continuing to build out our digital properties, especially our growing podcast channel Millennium Live which is now approaching 10k subscribers. It has never been a more exciting time to be at The Millennium Alliance and we are pumped to make the prestigious Inc. 5000 once again.”

For complete results of the Inc. 5000, including company profiles and an interactive database that can be sorted by industry, location, and other criteria, go to www.inc.com/inc5000. All 5000 companies are featured on Inc.com starting Tuesday, August 13, and the top 500 appear in the new issue of Inc. magazine, available on newsstands beginning Tuesday, August 20.

“One of the greatest joys of my job is going through the Inc. 5000 list,” says Mike Hofman, who recently joined Inc. as editor-in-chief. “To see all of the intriguing and surprising ways that companies are transforming sectors, from health care and AI to apparel and pet food, is fascinating for me as a journalist and storyteller. Congratulations to this year’s honorees, as well, for growing their businesses fast despite the economic disruption we all faced over the past three years, from supply chain woes to inflation to changes in the workforce.”

**More ABOUT THE INC. 5000**

Methodology

Companies on the 2024 Inc. 5000 are ranked according to percentage revenue growth from 2020 to 2023. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by March 31, 2020. They must be U.S.-based, privately held, for-profit, and independent—not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies—as of December 31, 2023. (Since then, some on the list may have gone public or been acquired.) The minimum revenue required for 2020 is $100,000; the minimum for 2023 is $2 million. As always, Inc. reserves the right to decline applicants for subjective reasons. Growth rates used to determine company rankings were calculated to four decimal places.

The Millennium Alliance Ranks No. 133 on the 2024 Inc. Regionals List

Posted on March 12, 2024October 24, 2024 by milladmin

NEW YORK – March 12, 2024 – Inc. Magazine last week revealed that The Millennium Alliance is No. 133 out of 198 on its annual Inc. Regionals list, the most prestigious ranking of the nation’s fastest-growing private companies. The list represents the most unique look of the most successful companies within the Northeast region with the American economy’s most dynamic segments- privately held, for-profit, and independent small businesses. The award recognizes the innovative achievements of companies in generating sustainable growth and jobs and is one of the most esteemed honors growing businesses and business leaders can receive.

In the 2024 Inc. Regionals, companies are meticulously evaluated based on their percentage revenue growth from 2020 to 2022. Within the Northeast division, a total of 198 outstanding companies have made the cut, collectively demonstrating a remarkable 156% median growth and contributing 14,514 jobs to the economy. The Millennium Alliance’s outstanding growth over the past two years stands as a testament to the dedication and unwavering support of its team.

Alex Sobol, Co-Founder & Managing Partner of The Millennium Alliance had this to say about Millennium receiving this recognition. “When Rob and I founded Millennium a decade ago, we could not have imagined how rapidly our team would grow. It is a huge honor to be in such incredible company alongside so many innovative and wildly successful organizations. Congratulations to everyone who has helped us to get here, and the best is still yet to come.”

For over four decades, Inc. has been the authoritative voice in ranking companies by their revenue growth, culminating in the prestigious Inc. 5000, a benchmark list showcasing America’s fastest-growing private enterprises. However, amidst a landscape where burgeoning early-stage companies are driving the pulse of the U.S. economy—pioneering growth and innovation even as established giants grapple with layoffs—they’re embracing their tradition of inclusivity by reintroducing their ranking system to younger companies through Inc. Regionals. Unlike the three-year revenue growth metric employed by the Inc. 5000, Regionals provides a snapshot of a company’s trajectory over two years, capturing the dynamic essence of emerging businesses poised for success.

The complete results of the Inc. Regionals, including company profiles and an interactive database that can be sorted by industry, region, and other criteria, can be found at https://www.inc.com/regionals/northeast.
