značajna točka (u razvoju)
Explanation:
Milestone je oznaka udaljenosti (16. kilometar autoputa). Kontekstualno je prikladniji sekundarni smisao. Na isti je način moguće reći: "My birth marked a significant milestone in my parent's relationship"

Hvala na pomoći. Teško je bilo odabrati odgovor među toliko dobrih sugestija. Čini mi se da najbolje odgovara "značajna etapa u razvoju" pa ću pokušati u skladu s time podijeliti Kudoze.

agree  pike: svakako (ovisi o daljem kontekstu - mislio sam na to, no problem je ako "smo", recimo, dosegli brutto promet od 1000000Kn - nikom neće biti drago ako je to prekretnica...;-))

agree  Natasa Mazar: "An important event, as in a person's career, the history of a nation, or the advancement of knowledge in a field; a turning point. "

neutral  Sandra Milosavljevic-Rothe: Po meni se prekretnica ne slaže u navedeni kontekst, jer se kod prekretnice menja pravac, što bi ovde značilo da se period razvoja završava i da dolazi do stagnacije ili čak opadanja, što sigurno nije smisao gornje izjave.

Razvojni nivo/stupanj razvoja


Explanation:
Ove godine, naš globalni posao prošao je značajan razvojni nivo/stupanj razvoja

Posao se razvio do određenog stupnja (pa i dalje od toga, možda) koji je značajan. Taj stupanj može biti određen glede volumena prometa, zarade, područja pokrivenog poslom itd.
