How did Milestone get started?
The co-founders John Blem and Henrik Friborg came from a company that developed software for real-time transfer of mission-critical financial data and envisioned bringing the same expertise to analog-based surveillance customers. Milestone just celebrated its first decade in business in 2008 and it was a very successful one where we were able to establish a very strong foundation to build on in the years ahead. Milestone had an international business model from the start, and focused on strengthening our partner channel worldwide – today in almost 90 countries.

Open architectures use off-the-shelf components and conform to approved standards in the IT industry. Conversel
