Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! This goes out to all of our customers, present and past, that have helped us reach a momentous milestone. Chronotek turns 20 this year.
It’s a big deal and we couldn’t be more proud or grateful. Only about 25% of all new small business startups make it to their 15th birthday. Most get out-lived by their pet dogs. So 20 years is pretty special.
We want to celebrate with our awesome customers by playing a game. Test your knowledge in our Chronotek Challenge. Let the games begin!
