Milestone

In 1997, Prem Chand founded Milestone Technologies with a clear vision to bridge the gap between people and technology through exceptional IT services. What began as a provider of IMAC project services quickly evolved into a comprehensive IT solutions company as Prem recognized the growing need for reliable, innovative technology support in an increasingly digital business world. From those early days performing basic IT installations, the company steadily expanded its capabilities and service offerings to meet the complex demands of enterprise clients. Today, Milestone Technologies has grown into a global IT Services and Digital Solutions company headquartered in Silicon Valley, helping hundreds of leading corporations deliver transformative technology solutions. Under the leadership of CEO Sameer Kishore, the company continues to drive innovation, enhance efficiency, and optimize business operations for clients worldwide. With over 25 years of experience and an employee-first culture focused on tailored training, mentorship, and career pathways, Milestone Technologies has established itself as a trusted partner for organizations seeking to leverage technology for competitive advantage.

At Forerunner, we believe climate adaptation is a necessity, not a luxury. We're building the modern operating system for government agencies, replacing fragmented legacy tools with an AI-powered platform that turns complex geospatial data into actionable insights. Our engineers work directly with public servants on the frontlines of climate change - processing hundreds of datasets, building real-time flood visualizations, and creating automated workflows that cut response times from weeks to hours. We ship constantly, own features from database modeling to pixel-perfect UI, and leverage AI-assisted development tools like Cursor and Claude Code to move faster. We've raised $39M to double down on our commitment: 190+ agencies now rely on Forerunner to manage floodplains, coordinate emergency responses, streamline permits, and build stronger, safer communities. Engineering, product, design, and customer success aren't siloed here - we build together, hear directly from users, and let that feedback shape what we ship next. If you're passionate about using technology to help communities prepare for our changing climate, you'll fit right in.
