Our Story
We started Basesix for our employees, customers, and anyone else looking for a better way. With decades of experience in the industry, we've learned that technology should feel basic- so that's what we empower our teams to do.
Basesix Managing Partners
Robb Borden
After graduating Auburn University, Robb’s career began in sales in 1995. In 2002, Robb joined Suntech Systems as a partner and VP of Operations. In 2005, after growing Suntech to the largest integrator in the region, together with their partners, they sold the business to a strategic buyer out of California.
In 2006, Robb founded Onepath and served as its President and CEO until 2016. As an integrator, Onepath offered services similar to their prior company, but also was one of the first companies to bridge the gap between building systems integration and network integration. From 2006 to 2017, when Robb exited the business, Onepath experienced growth from zero to approximately 220M in revenue.
Chris Atwell
After attending West Georgia College, Chris enrolled in GTI and earned a degree in Electronics Technology.
While attending school, Chris worked for Siemens as a Technician and moved into various Sales and Management rolls with Siemens after graduating. In 1995, Chris joined the management team at Suntech Systems and helped to grow and develop the company into the premier Systems Integration firm in the Southeast. Once the acquisition and transition of Suntech was completed in 2005, Chris joined Robb at Onepath and served on the leadership team through 2017.
Chris is a native of Lilburn, GA where he attended Parkview HS and met his wife Pam of 26 years. Pam and Chris have two children, live in Covington, GA and attend Passion City Church.
Stuart Gurr
After graduating from the University of Georgia in 1995, Stuart began his career in sales in the healthcare industry at a start-up company that quickly became WebMD. Stuart transitioned into the banking industry in 2002 as a Co-Founder of a commercial bank with operations in Jacksonville, FL and Salt Lake City, UT.
Stuart entered the low voltage industry 12+ years ago when he joined the Onepath team as an Account Manager. His entrepreneurial spirit and focus on turning concepts into reality enabled him to close over $50 million of low voltage technologies work, including projects at SunTrust (Truist) Park and at The Marcus Tower at Piedmont Hospital. As a top-ranked seller in the organization, he also mentored and developed the next generation of sales and project management talent. Stuart is passionate about growth – the growth of the company, its culture, and most importantly, its people. He brought this passion to Basesix when he joined in 2019, where he currently serves as President.
