Alexander Soros, aged 37, has been named chairman of the Open Society Foundation (OSF), marking a new era for the organization. With a strong inclination towards political engagement, Alexander has expressed his intention to amplify his father’s vision, albeit with a domestic focus.

 

Doubling Down On Progressive Values

Under Alexander’s leadership, the OSF aims to fortify democracy and defend voting rights. Emphasizing the significance of personal freedom, the organization will continue supporting left-leaning political candidates in the United States. At the same time, Alexander aspires to reduce the influence of money in politics. He acknowledges the need to counter the actions of those on the opposing side.
