#Millenniumlive: Offensive Security: Enabling the Enterprise in the Age of AI with Terra Security

In this episode of Millennium Live Podcast, we sit down with Shahar Peled, Co-Founder and CEO of Terra Security, to explore how the future of cybersecurity is shifting from reactive defense to proactive resilience. As enterprises face an evolving threat landscape shaped by AI-driven attacks, ransomware, and increasing regulatory pressure, Shahar shares his journey into cybersecurity — from identifying critical gaps in traditional security programs to founding Terra Security, a company pioneering Agentic AI-powered continuous penetration testing. Shahar explains how organizations can better understand their true risk posture, validate their defenses in real time, and integrate automation into the security lifecycle. Shahar breaks down the common blind spots enterprises face when assessing cyber risk and why many security strategies still fall short in practice. Shahar also offers a forward-looking perspective on the future of security, including autonomous validation, AI vs. AI dynamics, as well as a glimpse into the personal side of leadership — from the habits that keep Shahar sharp to how he navigates high-pressure moments, along with advice for the next generation of cybersecurity founders.

#Millenniumlive: Setting a New Standard in Care Delivery: The Shift from Telehealth to Virtual-First with Ovatient

Over the last decade, telehealth surged — accelerated by necessity, adopted at scale, and then challenged to prove its staying power. Many organizations discovered that access alone isn’t transformation. The promise was there — but the operational model often wasn’t. So what does it actually take to move from episodic telehealth to a truly virtual-first care model? On this episode Millennium Live podcast, we’re joined by Michael Dalton, Founder and CEO of Ovatient — a “virtual-first,” purpose-built platform for health systems and health plans, and anchored deeply in integrated clinical and technology infrastructure. In today’s episode, we’ll explore:

  • What “virtual-first” really means operationally — and how continuity, escalation, and longitudinal care are designed into the model rather than left to chance.
  • Why health plan executives should care about a virtual-first model anchored to local health systems.
  • The measurable outcomes that matter to both health systems and health plans — and how success is defined.
  • A real patient story that illustrates continuity — without the frustration of being bounced between disconnected providers.

This episode is packed with insights for healthcare executives who care about aligning incentives, strengthening local health systems, and building virtual care that actually integrates, then you’re in the right place.

#Millenniumlive: Shifting Left: The Katch Approach for Subrogation and Smarter Payment Coordination

In this episode, we sit down with Joe Fitzpatrick, Chief Executive Officer of Katch, for a forward-looking conversation on the evolution of subrogation and third-party liability (TPL) payment coordination. We explore how the landscape has shifted in recent years and the mounting pressures accelerating that change—from rising medical costs and regulatory complexity to increasing expectations around member experience and financial performance. Joe explains how Katch’s proactive, “shift-left” approach moves subrogation upstream in the payment process, helping organizations prevent avoidable costs before they hit the books—while preserving member trust and reducing administrative friction. Joe shares his perspective on the trends shaping the next era of payment coordination, and why traditional, retrospective subrogation models are reaching their limits. Joe brings decades of experience across health care delivery, payment, and transformation, including leadership roles at Optum and UnitedHealthcare. Throughout his career, he’s learned that the most impactful health care solutions emerge when leaders spot challenges early—and build systems that address them proactively, not reactively.

Unlocking Hidden Margin: How Health Systems Are Thinking About AI, Automation, and Revenue Risk with Adonis

Contributed by Adonis

In January 2026, we surveyed revenue cycle leaders across the country to understand the forces shaping modern revenue operations. More than 120 leaders participated, 48 of which represented
hospitals and health systems.

This report focuses on those 48 hospital-based respondents. Their input reflects how revenue cycle is being discussed at the executive level, how organizations are approaching AI and
automation investment, and where leaders see risk building inside their revenue operations.

Three themes are clear:

  1. Revenue cycle is now an executive issue, not just an operational one.
  2. AI investment is increasing, but impact remains uneven.
  3. Visibility into revenue risk remains the largest structural gap.

Notably, 63 percent of hospital leaders report they are not taking a proactive approach to identifying revenue risk. In an environment defined by payer variability, reimbursement pressure,
and staffing constraints, that gap has direct implications for margin stability and cash predictability.

#Millenniumlive: Real-World Context Engineering: Live Context for AI Agents with Materialize

We’ve been talking about AI for years. Machine learning. Predictive analytics. Generative models. But something fundamental is changing. AI isn’t just generating content anymore — it’s taking action. Agents are moving from demo environments into production systems. They’re making decisions, triggering workflows, interacting with customers, and operating inside the core of the enterprise. So the big question becomes: are we looking at incremental progress, or a structural inflection point in enterprise architecture? Seth Wiesman, Field CTO at Materialize, joins the Millennium podcast — and he’s been vocal about a shift many organizations are just starting to grasp: most enterprise data platforms were designed for humans, not machines. In this episode, we’re digging into why traditional data lakes and warehouses may not be enough in an agentic world, why “time to trust in action” might become the defining leadership metric, and why stale context isn’t just a latency problem — it’s a business risk that touches revenue, resilience, and customer trust. Seth explores whether context infrastructure is becoming the next competitive moat, what it really means to build a “live digital twin” of your business, and how executives can take practical steps toward agent-scale systems — without ripping out everything they’ve already built. And perhaps most importantly: in the era of AI agents, why infrastructure discipline is so important.

Why B2B Mega Events Are Going Extinct – and What’s Replacing Them with Alex Sobol

Contributed by Sales & Marketing Management Magazine

Featuring Alex Sobol, Co-Founder at The Millennium Alliance

If you’re looking for evidence of sales and marketing’s obsession with hard numbers and ROI, consider the rapid rise of retail media networks (RMNs) within the ad tech sector. RMNs promise to get brands much closer to high-purchase intent consumers, both online and in-store, while providing direct line of sight into return on campaign spend. In a world where every marketing dollar needs to prove its value, brands are reallocating their spend in favor of highly targeted, measurable channels like this, versus more traditional, top-of-funnel approaches like linear TV and radio.

We’re seeing this trend play out similarly in in-person B2B event marketing. Even with the increased emphasis on digital channels like social selling, in-person interactions between buyers and sellers continue to be viewed as an irreplaceable piece of the sales puzzle. In fact, 87% of business managers believe in-person meetings are still central to strong business relationships.

However, the expectations for in-person B2B events are changing rapidly for both buyers and sellers. In many ways, the mega tradeshows that characterized Y2K and the early aughts are diminishing in influence, as today’s attendees seek more meaningful, intimate networking and personalized content over crowded, chaotic exhibition halls.

Not surprisingly, sales and marketing teams are now prioritizing these more intimate in-person events over the mega tradeshows, with one recent survey showing 34% year-over-year (1H 2024 – 1H 2025) growth in small (under 150 attendees) in-person gatherings. In contrast, the number of organizations planning more hosted large events fell 12% year over year from 2024 to 2025.

Curious what’s driving this shift and what it means for the future of B2B events? Read the full article to learn more here.
