In June 2016, Mustafa Jabar was elected president of BASIS after his Digital Brigade Panel won seven of the nine directorships. The elections at this point were held triennially.[4]

The move extended the tenure for six months of BASIS's executive committee.[5] Syed Almas Kabir was later elected president on March 31, 2018, when the elections were held anyway upon request of the commerce ministry.[6]
In April 2018, BASIS started the Commonwealth-SheTrades initiative, with funding from the UK Department for International Development.[7] In May 2018, the BASIS website was hacked by a Myanmarhacking group.[8] According to Al Jazeera in 2018, BASIS is "the biggest umbrella organization representing the country's IT sector."[9] BASIS has offices in Dhaka.[10]
In August 2018, BASIS publicly implored RAJUK to allow BASIS members operating software companies out of commercial zones to continue operating, noting that the commercial zones then open did not allow such companies to remain open all day. BASIS at the time said that 800 of its 1,100 members had offices in non-commercial areas.[11]
