Basemark and COVID-19

I hope you and your dear ones are safe and in good health during these extraordinary times. 

At Basemark, we have taken many steps to safeguard the health of our employees, customers and partners. For instance, we have asked everyone to work remotely and practice social distancing. Luckily, all of our employees are safe and no one has contracted the virus.

Today, I am happy to share with you that we started donating our computer resources through Folding@home to help scientists simulate the dynamics of COVID-19 proteins to hunt for new therapeutic opportunities. Basemark’s team number at Folding@home is 245556.

We challenge all other software development companies to do the same!

Sincerely,
Tero Sarkkinen
Founder and Chairman of the Board of Basemark
