Official Statement from the Miss Universe Organization
New York, NY — May 19, 2025. The Miss Universe Organization (MUO), a global leader in international pageants and a platform committed to female empowerment, proudly announces the strengthening of its operational infrastructure as part of its strategic expansion into over 130 countries.
This structural renovation aims to optimize coordination with national franchises, enhance communication channels, and ensure a higher level of support for all stakeholders within the Miss Universe ecosystem, including national directors, sponsors, strategic partners, and the global audience.
Operations and strategy management for Western countries will be carried out from our corporate offices in New York and Mexico City, while oversight for Eastern countries will be handled by our regional offices in Bangkok and Singapore. Thanks to this regional organization, MUO’s executive and operational teams will be able to work more closely with each country, respond more efficiently, and offer more personalized and effective support across different time zones.
All executive, managerial, and administrative appointments within MUO’s global structure are defined solely and exclusively by the Miss Universe Organization itself. These decisions are based on internal criteria of strategy, professionalism, and alignment with the organization’s values. No individual, company, or external entity is authorized to appoint, announce, or assume executive representation on behalf of MUO without the organization’s official and direct authorization.
Founded in 1952, the Miss Universe Organization is a globally recognized institution with over 70 years of history, offering a unique platform to women around the world. The organization promotes leadership, education, social impact, diversity, and personal development among its candidates and titleholders.
MUO operates as an independent entity with its own leadership, strategic direction, and administration. Its mission is clear: to empower women to achieve their fullest potential and to provide them with a global platform from which they can create positive change in their communities and beyond. The organization works year-round supporting social projects, collaborating with humanitarian organizations, and developing spaces for training and visibility for women from diverse cultural, social, and professional backgrounds.
