Brandon Kaster

Digital and AI Practice Lead
Brandon Kaster is a technology leader with 20 years of experience turning complex software and technology challenges into competitive advantages for businesses — and as Chief Digital Officer at Future Ventures, he brings that same results-driven approach to leading the firm's Digital and AI practice.

Brandon combines a degree in computer science and business management with deep, hands-on experience across every role a high-performing technology team requires. He has designed, built, implemented, and sustained solutions ranging from $1M to $30M in scale — giving him a rare ability to hold the big picture and the minute technical details in equal focus. He doesn't just understand technology strategy; he's lived the execution.

Since 2010, Brandon has served the North American midstream energy industry across the USA and Canada, earning the trust of some of the sector's most respected organizations — including Pembina Pipeline, TC Energy, Trans Mountain, Energy Transfer, CNRL, CenterPoint Energy, and Alyeska, among others. As a senior leader at the industry's leading Oil & Gas software provider, he built a track record of delivering enterprise-grade solutions in one of the most operationally demanding environments in the world.

At Future Ventures, Brandon leads the firm's digital strategy and AI practice — helping scaling companies harness emerging technology, modernize their operations, and build the digital foundations they need to grow with confidence.

Built for scale.
