Milestone Systems will open a new Experience & Collaboration Center at its Lake Oswego, Oregon, office on Sept. 1, giving customers and partners a hands-on environment to explore the company's video technology portfolio.

The center, located just south of Portland, will showcase Milestone's XProtect video management software, BriefCam AI-powered analytics and Arcules cloud Video Security as a Service. It will also feature the company's solutions for training AI using high-quality video data.

Milestone said the facility is designed to demonstrate how video technology can be used to generate insights, strengthen security and improve operations.

“This space gives our customers and partners the freedom to see what's possible when you're not locked into a single vendor's roadmap,” said Tim Palmquist, vice president of Americas at Milestone Systems. “Video has moved far beyond security, and the center lets people test that for themselves, on real systems, with the same responsible approach to data that guides everything we build.”

The company also sees the center as an opportunity to expand its presence in the Pacific Northwest.

“We've done great work across the Pacific Northwest, but I don't think we've shown this region everything that we can do,” said Kyle Craven, Milestone's channel business manager for the Oregon territory. “This ribbon-cutting is just the start. If you're in security, IT, or facilities anywhere in Oregon or Washington, come see what a truly open platform looks like.”

Milestone will hold an opening celebration and official ribbon-cutting Sept. 1 from 3 to 5 p.m. (PDT). Media, customers and partners are invited to attend. Following the opening, prospective and existing customers will be able to visit the center by appointment.
