The Future of
Basecamp is Here

In the future on the eve of the 20 year mark for Basecamp we are doing better than we ever have as a company. How do I know? Time travel. I’ve witnessed Basecamp’s growth as a member of the team.

My Fellow Basecampers,

I’m Nathan Allotey. You don’t know me yet but you will. In the future I serve as the Data Analyst for Basecamp. I found an app online that allowed me to travel back in time and I chose to help the current Nathan with his Basecamp application for data analyst.
