Milain was born in The Democratic Republic of Congo and although he no longer lives there, his life’s mission is to help his country and empower its natives. That’s been the theme across all three companies Milain founded.

Eben has been featured in Forbes and Miami Herald, but Milain knew he needed a lot more funding to really scale it. So he started another company in the real estate tech space to pump cash into Eben.
