are mainly Malaysia based ICT companies, with others based in Indonesia and Thailand.
ICT
Industry in Asia
Asia
has become a hotbed for adoption of some new technologies in recent years, especially in the field of Internet of things (IoT)
and robotics. This is partly driven by manufacturing firms, most notably in China, which are rapidly deploying these solutions.
It also reflects commitments from Asian governments and business leaders to leverage new technologies as a solution to the region’s
economic and demographic challenges, such as robotics as a response to curb labor shortages in Japan. Smart city investments in
the region are also eye-catching, with the high penetration rate of mobile devices allowing some countries to ‘leapfrog’
legacy technologies. The challenge will be to increase broader adoption of software solutions which have the potential to deliver
a more transformative economic impact 1 .
Driven
by the rapid growth of IoT in recent years, coupled with the investments in the manufacturing and transportation industries, new
technologies are already approaching $1 trillion in annual revenue. Over the next few years, other new categories such as robots/drones
and AR/VR headsets in addition to related software and services will see similar growth. This increasing proportion of spending
targeted at new categories will drive the overall industry to a new growth surge over the next decade as businesses move beyond
prototyping into broader deployments of technologies such as augmented reality viewers and AI-enabled robots.

ICT
Industry – Hong Kong
Hong
Kong’s role as a leading business center in the Asia region can be evidenced by its advanced telecommunications infrastructure.
According to Global Information Technology Report 2016 by the World Economic Forum, Hong Kong is in the third rank in Asia (12th
in the world) in the Networked Readiness Index, indicating Hong Kong’s advanced position in telecommunications infrastructure,
regulatory environment, and business readiness of using information technology. 2 The ICT sector of Hong Kong is among
the most advanced in the world. According to the annual global ICT Development Index published by ITU in November 2017, Hong Kong
ranked second in Asia after Korea, and sixth in the world. 3
The
industry of information and communications in Hong Kong had generated HK$84.1 billion (US$10.7 billion) of value added during
2016, contributing to 3.5% of GDP. In term of industry data, Hong Kong had household broadband penetration rate at 92.6% (as at
February 2018). 4 The Hong Kong Internet connection speeds are among the highest in the world, according to the Office
of the Communication Authority. In Hong Kong, IT products and services suppliers were the largest category of IT users, accounting
for 34.2% of total IT employment, followed by the wholesale, retail, import/export, restaurants and hotels sector (28.8%), the
financing, insurance, real estate and business services sector (17.9%), and the community, social and personal services sector
(11.4%). 4
Hong
Kong’s ICT spending is on track to grow 3.8% in 2018 to HK$144.42 billion, according to the latest projections from Gartner.
Total spending on technology and products in the market is projected to turnaround following a 9.2% decline in spending in 2017,
and grow a further 1.9% in 2019 to reach HK$147.19 billion. Communications services will remain the largest category overall,
but total spending in this category is projected to decline slightly from 2017 to HK$49 billion. Spending on devices by contrast
will increase significantly to HK$47.9 billion, taking it closer to becoming the top spending category in the Hong Kong market.
Spending on software will also increase by 9.2% to HK$13.15 billion, and the IT services segment will grow 3.5% to HK$28.4 billion.
Data center systems spending will by contrast stay mostly flat at HK$5.89 billion. 5
Hong
Kong government has put in place initiatives to foster the ICT industry development, which included funding support, provision
of infrastructure, international cooperation and manpower development. One of the example will be The Smart City Blueprint, which
unveiled in December 2017, maps out development plans for the next five years to enhance Hong Kong sustainability by making use
of innovation and technology. The Hong Kong government’s Innovation and Technology Fund (ITF) has provided an alternative
source of funding for the IT industry. As of end-March 2018, the ITF had approved 7,359 funding applications on projects with
a total of HK$ 14 billion. Last but not least, Hong Kong has a large pool of skilled ICT professionals, providing services to
clients spanning a wide range of businesses. According to the 2016 Manpower Survey Report conducted by the VTC, 87,794 persons
were employed in principal jobs of the IT sector. 6

ICT
Industry in ASEAN
The
economy in Southeast Asia region is expected to grow at a yearly average of 5.2% from 2018 to 2022 7 , with studies projecting
the Association of Southeast Asia Nations (ASEAN) to become the fourth largest single market in the world by 2030 8
- putting it behind only the US, China and the European Union. The region’s steady growth is fueled by an increasingly well-educated
workforce, a wealth of natural resources, rapid urbanization and growing infrastructure spending. In addition, ASEAN is in a strategic
location in the confluence of major trade routes, with US$5.3 trillion of global trade passing through each year 9 .
Our company sees that the opportunity of ASEAN’s strong and vibrant economy, favorable demographics, ICT investments, and
ongoing economic integration have laid the foundation for rapid growth in the digital economy.
10 The
six largest economies in ASEAN (Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Philippines, and Vietnam) contribute 99% of the total
ASEAN GDP. Many of the fundamentals are already in place:
●
Robust economy generating GDP of $2.5 trillion and growing
at 6 percent per year
●
Literate population of more than 600 million people,
with 40 percent under 30 years of age
●
Well-developed information and communications technology
(ICT) cluster with a track record of innovation and investment in new technology

ICT
Industry in Malaysia
Malaysia,
where our company is based in, is the fourth largest economy in Southeast Asia and is known for its high labor productivity and
diversified economy. Over the years, the country has transformed itself from being a primary commodities exporter into a leading
exporter of electrical appliances, electronic parts, and components. Moving up the industrial value chain, it has also established
itself as an attractive regional ICT hub for services, information and technology, and e-commerce.
The
ICT industry has contributed recorded 18.3% to the national economy in 2017 as compared to 16.5% in 2010. This industry showed
an increasing average annual growth rate of 9.0% over a seven year period. The contribution of ICT comprised 13.2% while the rest
is contributed by e-commerce in non ICT industries. The contribution of the ICT industry to Gross Domestic Product (GDP) recorded
a growth of 8.4% with a value of US$45 billion. This information can be found at https://www.dosm.gov.my/v1/index.php.
4
In
March 2017, Malaysia launched the world’s first Digital Free Trade Zone (DFTZ) 11 outside of China that aims to
capitalize the confluence and exponential growth of the internet economy and cross-border e-commerce activities. The DFTZ is expected
to double the growth rate of small and medium enterprises’ goods exports to reach US$38 billion and facilitate US$65 billion
of goods movement via the DFTZ (exports, imports, transshipments) by 2025. More than 2,000 small and medium enterprises stand
to get easier access to the global market, especially the Chinese market, through the DFTZ. The DFTZ is also expected to generate
60,000 new jobs in the country by 2025.
In
its 2018 budget 12 , the government announced wide-ranging incentives to support businesses, including capital allowance
for ICT equipment and software, tax relief on services provided by the local authorities, and extended application period for
principal hub tax incentive among others. The principal hub tax incentive aims to increase Malaysia’s competitiveness as
the global operations hub for multinational companies by offering tax exemptions to companies that set up their global operation
centers in Malaysia. The budget also announced National Transformation 2050 vision that aims to improve the qualitative growth
factors of the economy such as labor force skills by preparing its citizens for future challenges such as the fourth industrial
revolution - artificial intelligence, robotics, digitalization, etc.

ICT
Industry in Indonesia
Meanwhile
in Indonesia, the country has the fastest growing mobile market in the Asia-Pacific region, while globally, it is the 4th largest
mobile market in the world. The country has an extremely high penetration rate in mobile device at 112%, meaning 260 million of
the country’s population has access to a mobile device 13 . This, combined with drivers like mass consumption of
products, urbanization, and a tech-hungry young population, has resulted in rapid development in the ICT industry in the country.
Currently,
the country’s ICT industry has a primary focus on Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) and cloud computing, providing solution such
as data analytics, data center management, and managed services. In July 2019, Softbank has announced a $2 billion investment
in Indonesia, aimed to upgrade the digital infrastructure of the country.
The
government of Indonesia has also introduced different initiatives and national programs, including Go Digital Vision 2020, e-smart
IKM and 100 Smart City Movement to drive the country’s economy towards the digital edge. These programs aim to develop local
startups, support small to medium enterprises (SMEs) as well as to prepare and embrace internet of things (IoT). Most notably,
the Making Indonesia 4.0 road map launched in April 2019 seeks to diversify the economy away from a reliance on natural resources
by developing higher-tech export industries. The plan will focus on areas like 3D printing, artificial intelligence, human-machine
interface, robotics and sensor technology, all of which require advanced digital capacity. As such, the government expects to
create between 7 million and 19 million new jobs between 2018 and 2030 to support the development of the industry. The government
also expects a growth in the industrial sector’s gross domestic product contribution from 20 percent to 30 percent over
the same period. 14
Indonesia
has already achieved its goal to become largest digital economy in South East Asia by 2020, valued at US$40 billion. Driven by
the socio-demographic and fiscal factors, the market value of Indonesia’s digital economy is expected to reach $130 billion
by 2025.

ICT
Industry in Thailand
Whereas
in Thailand, the industrial hub of South East Asia, the country is still in the starting/developing stage in its ICT industry.
The country’s ICT industry is dominated by the hardware market, including CCTV and smart Bluetooth, which account for 67%
of the industry value 15 . Meanwhile, software and digital services account for the remaining. As such, the potential
of the industry is still largely untapped and more advancement into digital spectrum can be expected.
The
government of Thailand is also stepping up its effort to encourage development of new start-ups with tech focus. It has set up
the Board of Investment (BOI), a government agency to promote Foreign Direct Investment into the country by providing information,
services, and incentives. Some of the incentives include permission for 100% foreign ownership, up to 15 years exemption in corporate
income tax, and permission to bring in experts and skilled workers and their families. The initiative aims to encourage firms
like venture capitals and corporate incubators to enter the local market, provide mentorships and accelerator programs that will
help to get startup off the ground and contribute to the growth of technology 16 . The BOI is also targeting to increase
funding of national research and development to at least 1% of Thailand’s GDP with the targeted ratio of public to private
R&D investment of 30:70, which private firms will enjoy higher benefits of this initiatives 17 .
Looking
forward, International Data Corporation (IDC) Thailand predicts that from 2019 to 2022, IT-related spending in the country will
reach US$72 billion. 60% of Thailand’s IT spending will also be on 3rd platform technologies with 30% of enterprises will
seek to build “digital-native” IT environments. Also, by 2024, it is expected that AI-enabled user interfaces and
process automation will replace one-third of today’s screen-based apps in Thailand. The IDC also expects 61% of the country
GDP, roughly U$317 billion (based on 2019 GDP level) will be digitalized by 2022 18 .

ICT
industry in Vietnam
Vietnam
has enjoyed its own economic miracle in recent years, showing the world how it turned the country from one of the poorest nation
in the world to become a middle-income nation. The Southeast Asia country has grown its GDP for an average 6.8% 19 over
the past two decades to reach US$ 255 billion in 2019, rivalling China’s result during this period 20 .
Along
with the economy, the country’s ICT industry has also experienced substantial growth of average 31.1% per year from 2014
to 2019. The industry’s revenue reached US$110 billion in 2019, driven by government’s initiatives, rising middle
class, growing internet usage, and a young population 21 .
Similar
to Thailand, the hardware segment dominates the Vietnam ICT industry, accounting for 86% of the industry revenue in 2017. However,
in recent years, the industry has seen tremendous potential in areas like software and services, evidenced from increased adoption
of software and service by the private and public sectors. At the same time, the country has emerged as a destination of software
outsourcing, competing directly with India, China, and Philippines. It is currently the eight largest provider of IT services
globally.
Various
government incentives have been introduced to encourage further development in the ICT industry. Amongst the incentives, government
has exempted 100% of corporate income tax for IT companies for up to four years, followed by 50% tax exemption for up to nine
years. Subsequently, the corporate income tax rate for IT Company will stay at 10%, compared to a 20% tax rate for traditional
companies. The government has also implemented a zero percent value-added tax for computer programming activities.
On
the other side, new hi-tech parks will be constructed across the country from 2015 to 2030 though a combined effort by central
and local government, and private capital 22 . The hi-tech parks will offer various benefits to investors to move into
the hi-tech parks. For example, the Da Nang High-tech Park offers CIT incentives, import duty exemptions, as well as one-stop
administrative procedures for investors located in the park 23 .

ICT
industry in Philippines
The
ICT industry in Philippines is relatively young compare to other countries, but the country has started to receive growing attention
and foreign investment in recent years. One of main reasons is the relatively low standard in the country’s telecoms sector,
as a result of lack of competition and limited investment. 24
In
order to overhaul the broadband capabilities, the Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) Philippines has
introduced the National Broadband Plan (NPL) in 2017, an US$ 4 billion initiative to deploy fiber optic cables and wireless technology
to further expand 3G, 4G, and LTE services throughout the country 25 . Since then, steady progress in 4G availability
has been made and is set to make further progress.
Currently,
Business process outsourcing (BPO) is one of the country’s leading generators of income. In fact, DICT has projected around
$38.9 billion revenue will be generated in the BPO service in the next six years25. In the past year, the ICT sector has also
become top investment contributor for the country in 2019, attracting US$6 billion of foreign investment 26 . Moving
forward, the focus of the country will remain in upgrading the network capabilities. The development in passive telecommunication
infrastructure such as fibre optic cables, cable landing stations and submarine fibre optic is expected to contribute an annual
investment inflow of US$1.9 billion until 2022.

Our
Solutions and Services
Mentoring
It
is the belief of the Company that tech-based entrepreneurs are vital agents of positive and transformational change across every
aspect of our society and economy. It is our intention to offer mentoring programs to our clients through which we hope to create
a sense of community, wherein our members will be able to grow their companies exponentially through leveraging skillsets and
potential capital provided by our organization. We believe that through creating a sense of community we have the potential to
become one of the IT Corporate Venture Capital (CVC) Companies in the ASIA region. Our mentors, for the time being and the foreseeable
future, will be comprised of the Company’s officers, both of whom have extensive experience in the information and computer
technology industry. Additionally, our mentors believe that they possess, through their extensive corporate experience, the corporate
management skills, professional network, and industry knowledge necessary in order to guide tech-based entrepreneurs to success.
The
exact details of our mentoring program may be adjusted on a case by case basis, but will follow a certain basic structure. Our
primary focus will be on providing domain knowledge on delivering ICT-enriched learning experiences and best practices through
years of experience in the ICT and tech-based industry. We intend to provide professional industry-based advice, conduct market
analysis, track metrics and corporate development advisory on Asia-wide ICT progress. The Company intends to conduct feasibility
report based on industry average using comparison of common firm performance within the ICT industry.
The
feasibility report covers seven main areas to clearly identify pain points entrepreneurs may encounter within the ICT market:
-
Direction and Strategy
-
Team and Execution
-
Culture and Brand
-
Creativity and Innovation
-
Business Modelling
-
Sustainability
-
Profitability
Match-Making
& Business Opportunities
The
strength and ability of Asia entrepreneurs are evolving and improving, hence our Company’s mission to assist these entrepreneurs
to grow globally. SEATech targets emerging-growth entrepreneurs to assist them to sustain their economic positions in the Asia
Pacific region, as we believe the multilateral business relationship between the countries in these region has shown a trend of
increasing strength which we believe will continue on into the future. We intend to identify emerging-growth entrepreneurs, at
least initially, through word of mouth, existing industry contacts of our officers and directors, and we may evaluate the possibility
of organizing programs or events in the future to provide a venture pitching platform for tech-based companies seeking venture
capital funding. Any and all such plans regarding the organization of events remain in the growing stage, and we have taken no
significant steps to finalize any such plans at this time. When we identify such entrepreneurs we intend to create linkages between
ecosystem players within the information and communications technology (ICT) industry and assist in solving critical issue for
the continued development of ICT sectors through methods which, at this point in time, remain under development.
Technology
Team
It
is the Company’s belief that digital products and services are transforming industries, enriching lives, and propelling
progress. We strongly believe that our team with years of experience in the ICT industry will be able to reinforce the importance
of digitization and incubate promising entrepreneurs in the ICT industry who can shape the country’s future. With the experience
of our officers and directors in this industry, we believe that we are able to benefit our members by making recommendations pursuant
to the digital economy, conducting market analysis, and tracking digital progress metrics throughout Southeast Asia.
Financial
and Corporate Advisory Team
Growing
strong regional entrepreneurs is not our sole aim, we also aspire to build an ICT ecosystem in the region through the tool of
securitization that could assist our clients to compete on the world stage. As such, we have entered into a memorandum of understanding
with the National ICT Association of Malaysia (PIKOM), and GreenPro Capital Corp (NASDAQ: GRNQ) to enter into a partnership to
create greater value for the high-growth emerging companies in the ASIA region. In collaboration with Greenpro, our corporate
development advisory services can be flexible arrangement, custom fitted for members and their needs. We provide advisory services
to ascertain that our clients are well structured and have clearly delineated funding options available in the capital marketplace.
Corporate
Program
Despite
technological advancements, many small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Asia have largely remained low-tech and low-skilled.
We intend to match and enhance performance of ICT entrepreneurs based upon a spectrum of availability, innovation environment,
regulatory environment, and digital literacy. It is our intention to create corporate programs through which our community clients
may have an opportunity to attend seminars, workshops, promotional events that showcase industry expertise during key cross-countries
Southeast Asia events. All such plans remain in development and we have yet to determine a timeline when such programs will become
available.
8
Future
Plan
Marketing
We
plan to explore tech-based marketplaces and attract IT startup entrepreneurs around ASIA countries through building our corporate
image and awareness through corporate seminars, website and pitching events. Further, we had developed a corporate website which
will introduce our SEATech Corporate Ventures Program.
At
this time we intend for the SEATech Corporate Ventures Program to be comprised of the following:
1.
Mentorship on Pitching - Participate in SEATech’s corporate accelerator programs which will mentor ICT entrepreneur’s
pitching skills and educate their mind-set of current business environment.
2.
Corporate Event – Opportunity to attend seminars / workshops where they will be provided with professional ICT advisory
solutions by our experienced officer and director.
3.
Roadshow and Fund Raising Advisory Opportunity to participate in event to provide entrepreneurs with knowledge of options available
within the capital market and to enhance their understanding of compliance requirements to respective capital market rules and
regulations.
4.
Matchmaking & Business Opportunities Potential collaborations for local entrepreneurs to meet some of the region’s most
innovative start-ups.
We
market our advisory services through this corporate website and intend to utilize search engine marketing to improve the number
visibility of our corporate website. We cannot determine, at this point in time, when our website will be completed, but the current
state of our website can be viewed at: http://www.seatech-ventures.com/.
Expansion
and Targeted Market
Over
the course of the next year, we plan to recruit three to five engagement partners for every country in which we will operate.
The Company anticipates expanding into the Asia market, with a particular focus, at least initially, on expanding into Thailand,
Indonesia, Singapore, Philippines, Vietnam, Myanmar, Cambodia, Taiwan, China and Hong Kong. The qualifications and capabilities
that we expect are individuals with strong and rich experiences in the ICT industry, able to provide analysis, advice and business
solutions for ICT organizations and companies that intend to develop, as well as carry out, performance assessment, strategic
planning and implementation of pre-set goals and plans.
Moreover,
we intend to hire additional staff to execute operations for our Malaysia market initially within a year of the public listing
of the Company. We believe that hiring fifteen to twenty employees, which may include accountants, public relations and ICT business
consultants, will be sufficient in order to support our operations. It will also be necessary for us to acquire office space from
which we can conduct operations and conduct meetings with potential clients. We also plan to allocate funds to support our ICT
Incubator Program. However, such development will require intensive research, development and testing so we cannot accurately
determine a concrete timeline at present nor have we determined an appropriate budget for these future activities. We may also
evaluate potential acquisitions and venture opportunities in the future which we feel may have some synergy with our current operations
when the Company is successfully listed in the US capital market.
Competition
SEATech
focuses on providing mentoring and advisory services to ICT companies in Asia. The venture capital industry in ASEAN or even the
Asia region has grown substantially over the years, as more start-ups, especially those with ICT focus, have emerged and will
require mentoring and incubation services in order to move the companies forward. Therefore, the venture capital industry is becoming
ever more competitive. SEATech intends to improve the visibility of our company and its advisory services in order to stand out
from our competition in this crowded market space. The company will also seek to improve the competency in ICT as way to create
competitive advantage over our existing and/or potential competitors.

For
the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company has generated $250,600 revenue from customers through the provision of business

work on our business up to 30 hours per week, but are prepared to devote more time if necessary.

transfer agent for our capital stock is VStock Transfer, LLC, with an address at 18, Lafayette Place, Woodmere, New York 11598

Penny
Stock Regulations
The
Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted regulations which generally define “penny stock” to be an equity security
that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share. Our Common Stock, when and if a trading market develops, may fall within
the definition of penny stock and be subject to rules that impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who
sell such securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors (generally those with assets in excess
of $1,000,000, or annual incomes exceeding $200,000 individually, or $300,000, together with their spouse).
For
transactions covered by these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of such
securities and have received the purchaser’s prior written consent to the transaction. Additionally, for any transaction,
other than exempt transactions, involving a penny stock, the rules require the delivery, prior to the transaction, of a risk disclosure
document mandated by the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must disclose
the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and,
if the broker-dealer is the sole market-maker, the broker-dealer must disclose this fact and the broker-dealer’s presumed
control over the market. Finally, monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held
in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks. Consequently, the “penny stock” rules may restrict
the ability of broker-dealers to sell our Common Stock and may affect the ability of investors to sell their Common Stock in the
secondary market.
In
addition to the “penny stock” rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Financial Industry
Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a
broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending
speculative low priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain
information about the customer’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations
of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low-priced securities will not be suitable for
at least some customers. The FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy
our common stock, which may limit the investors’ ability to buy and sell our stock.
Dividend
Policy
Any
future determination as to the declaration and payment of dividends on shares of our Common Stock will be made at the discretion
of our board of directors out of funds legally available for such purpose. We are under no obligations or restrictions to declare
or pay dividends on our shares of Common Stock. In addition, we currently have no plans to pay such dividends. Our board of directors
currently intends to retain all earnings for use in the business for the foreseeable future.

structure is for the Labuan, Malaysia subsidiary to act as a holding company. At the present time, we do not have definitive plans
for which markets we will be expanding to, but we will utilize this subsidiary to prepare for future expansion efforts. The purpose
of the Hong Kong Company is to function as the current regional hub, carrying out the majority of physical operations, of the
Company. All of the previous entities share the same exact business plan.

All
of the previous entities share the same exact business plan with the goal of providing business mentoring services, nurturing
and incubation services relating to client businesses and corporate development advisory services to entrepreneurs in the broader
technology industry, but with a specific focus on the information and communication technology industry. We will, at least initially,
primarily focus our efforts on nurturing ICT entrepreneurs in Asia. Our advisory services will center on our “ICT Start-Up
Mentorship Program”, which is designed to assist tech-based entrepreneurs in solving ICT industry pain points caused by
technical insufficiencies, inappropriate financial modelling and weak strategic positioning within a competitive environment.
The program aims to improve the technical exposure of our clients and to improve their sustainability in the ICT industry community
through a combination of mentorship programs. At present our payment structure is under development, meaning that for the foreseeable
future we will evaluate all payments/fees on a case by case basis.

Revenue
recognition
In
accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”)
Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition”, the Company recognizes revenue from sales of goods when the following four revenue
criteria are met: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred; (3) selling price is fixed or determinable;
and (4) collectability is reasonably assured.
Revenue
is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of discounts and taxes applicable to the revenue.
The Company derives its revenue from provision of business mentoring, nurturing, incubating and corporate development advisory
services to ICT and technology based companies.
Cost
of revenue
Cost
of revenue includes the cost of services and product in providing business mentoring, nurturing, incubating and corporate development
advisory services
Income
taxes
Income
taxes are determined in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 740, “ Income Taxes ” (“ASC Topic 740”).
Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences
between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax
assets and liabilities are measured using enacted income tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the periods in which
those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Any effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change
in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
ASC
740 prescribes a comprehensive model for how companies should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in their financial statements
uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740, tax positions must initially be recognized
in the financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities.
Such tax positions must initially and subsequently be measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50%
likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the tax authority assuming full knowledge of the position and relevant
facts.
15
Net
income/(loss) per share
The
Company calculates net loss per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260 “Earnings per share”. Basic loss per share
is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss
per share is computed similar to basic loss per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional
common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common stock equivalents had been issued and if the additional
common shares were dilutive.
Foreign
currencies translation
The reporting currency of the Company and
its subsidiaries in Labuan and Hong Kong are United States Dollars (“US$”), being the primary currency of the economic
environment in which these entities operate.
Transactions
denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates
prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional
currency are translated into the functional currency using the applicable exchange rates at the balance sheet dates. The resulting
exchange differences are recorded in the statements of operations.
In
general, for consolidation purposes, assets and liabilities of its subsidiary whose functional currency is not the US$ are translated
into US$, in accordance with ASC Topic 830-30, “ Translation of Financial Statement ”, using the exchange rate
on the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates prevailing during the period. The gains and losses
resulting from translation of financial statements of foreign subsidiary are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other
comprehensive income within the statement of stockholders’ equity.

Related
parties
Parties,
which can be a corporation or individual, are considered to be related if the Company has the ability, directly or indirectly,
to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions.
Companies are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or common significant influence.
Fair
value of financial instruments:
The
carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments: cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued liabilities,
and amount due to a director approximate at their fair values because of the short-term nature of these financial instruments.
The
Company also follows the guidance of the ASC Topic 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820-10”),
with respect to financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value. ASC 820-10 establishes a three-tier fair value
hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
Level
1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;
Level
2: Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
Level
3: Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.
Recent
accounting pronouncements
FASB
issues various Accounting Standards Updates relating to the treatment and recording of certain accounting transactions. On June
10, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-10, Development Stage
Entities (Topic 915) Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements, including an Amendment to Variable Interest
Entities Guidance in Topic 810, Consolidation , which eliminates the concept of a development stage entity (DSE) entirely
from current accounting guidance. The Company has elected adoption of this standard, which eliminates the designation of DSEs
and the requirement to disclose results of operations and cash flows since inception.
The
Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and do not believe the future adoption
of any such pronouncements may be expected to cause a material impact on its financial condition or the results of its operations.

Disclosures
Control and Procedures
Our
management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control
over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act as a process designed by,
or under the supervision of, the company’s principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by the company’s
board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting
and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America and includes those policies and procedures that:
●
Pertain
to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of
the assets of the company;
●
Provide
reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and that receipts and expenditures of the company
are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and
●
Provide
reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the company’s
assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because
of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of
any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes
in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. All internal control systems,
no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only
reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Because of the inherent limitations of
internal control, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control
over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore,
it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.
As
of December 31, 2020, management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria
for effective internal control over financial reporting established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) and SEC guidance on conducting such assessments.
Based on such evaluation, the Company’s management concluded that, during the period covered by this Report, internal controls
and procedures over were not effective. This was due to deficiencies that existed in the design or operation of our internal controls
over financial reporting that adversely affected our internal controls and that may be considered to be material weaknesses.
17
Identified
Material Weakness
A
material weakness in internal control over financial reporting is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies,
that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the financial statements will not be prevented or
detected.
Management
identified the following material weakness during its assessment of internal controls over financial reporting as of December
31, 2020.
We
do not have adequate segregation of duties and effective risk assessment – Lack of segregation of duties and effective
risk assessment may cause the Company to face the likelihood of fraud or theft, due to poor oversight, governance and review to
detect errors.
Accordingly,
the Company concluded that these control deficiencies resulted in a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the
annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by the company’s internal controls.
As
a result of the material weaknesses described above, management has concluded that the Company did not maintain effective internal
control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020 based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework
issued by COSO.
Management’s
Remediation Initiatives
In
an effort to remediate the identified material weaknesses and other deficiencies and enhance our internal controls, we have initiated,
or plan to initiate, the following series of measures:
1.
We
plan to create a position to segregate duties consistent with control objectives and will increase our personnel resources
and technical accounting expertise within the accounting function. The accounting personnel is responsible for reviewing the
financing activities, facilitate the approval of the financing, record the information regarding the financing, and submit
SEC filing related documents to our legal counsel in order to comply with the filing requirements of SEC.
2.
We
intend to add staff members to our management team for making sure that information required to be disclosed in our reports
filed and submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported as and when required and will the
staff members will have segregated responsibilities with regard to these responsibilities.
We
anticipate that these initiatives will be at least partially, if not fully, implemented by the end of fiscal year 2020.
Changes
in internal controls over financial reporting
There
was no change in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this Report, which
has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting:
This
annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered independent public accounting firm regarding
internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered
independent public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide
only management’s report in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Corporate
Governance
The
Company promotes accountability for adherence to honest and ethical conduct; endeavors to provide full, fair, accurate, timely
and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that the Company files with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
“SEC”) and in other public communications made by the Company; and strives to be compliant with applicable governmental
laws, rules and regulations. The Company has not formally adopted a written code of business conduct and ethics that governs the
Company’s employees, officers and Directors as the Company is not required to do so.
In
lieu of an Audit Committee, the Company’s Board of Directors, is responsible for reviewing and making recommendations concerning
the selection of outside auditors, reviewing the scope, results and effectiveness of the annual audit of the Company’s financial
statements and other services provided by the Company’s independent public accountants. The Board of Directors, the Chief
Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of the Company review the Company’s internal accounting controls, practices
and policies.
Committees
of the Board
Our
Company currently does not have nominating, compensation, or audit committees or committees performing similar functions nor does
our Company have a written nominating, compensation or audit committee charter. Our Directors believes that it is not necessary
to have such committees, at this time, because the Director(s) can adequately perform the functions of such committees.
Audit
Committee Financial Expert
Our
Board of Directors has determined that we do not have a board member that qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert”
as defined in Item 407(D)(5) of Regulation S-K, nor do we have a Board member that qualifies as “independent” as the
term is used in Item 7(d)(3)(iv)(B) of Schedule 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and as defined by Rule
4200(a)(14) of the FINRA Rules.
We
believe that our Director(s) are capable of analyzing and evaluating our financial statements and understanding internal controls
and procedures for financial reporting. The Director(s) of our Company does not believe that it is necessary to have an audit
committee because management believes that the Board of Directors can adequately perform the functions of an audit committee.
In addition, we believe that retaining an independent Director who would qualify as an “audit committee financial expert”
would be overly costly and burdensome and is not warranted in our circumstances given the stage of our development and the fact
that we have not generated any positive cash flows from operations to date.
Involvement
in Certain Legal Proceedings
Our
Directors and our Executive officers have not been involved in any of the following events during the past ten years:
1.
bankruptcy
petition filed by or against any business of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the time
of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time;
2.
any
conviction in a criminal proceeding or being subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other
minor offenses);
3.
being
subject to any order, judgment, or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction,
permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting his/her involvement in any type of business,
securities or banking activities; or
4.
being
found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the Commission or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission
to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended, or vacated.
5.
Such
person was found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a civil action or by the Commission to have violated any Federal
or State securities law, and the judgment in such civil action or finding by the Commission has not been subsequently reversed,
suspended, or vacated;
6.
Such
person was found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a civil action or by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to
have violated any Federal commodities law, and the judgment in such civil action or finding by the Commodity Futures Trading
Commission has not been subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated;
7.
Such
person was the subject of, or a party to, any Federal or State judicial or administrative order, judgment, decree, or finding,
not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, relating to an alleged violation of:(i) Any Federal or State securities or
commodities law or regulation; or(ii) Any law or regulation respecting financial institutions or insurance companies including,
but not limited to, a temporary or permanent injunction, order of disgorgement or restitution, civil money penalty or temporary
or permanent cease-and-desist order, or removal or prohibition order; or(iii) Any law or regulation prohibiting mail or wire
fraud or fraud in connection with any business entity; or
8.
Such
person was the subject of, or a party to, any sanction or order, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any self-regulatory
organization (as defined in Section 3(a)(26) of the Exchange Act (15 U.S.C. 78c(a)(26))), any registered entity (as defined
in Section 1(a)(29) of the Commodity Exchange Act (7 U.S.C. 1(a)(29))), or any equivalent exchange, association, entity or
organization that has disciplinary authority over its members or persons associated with a member.
Independence
of Directors
We
are not required to have independent members of our Board of Directors, and do not anticipate having independent Directors until
such time as we are required to do so.
Code
of Ethics
We
have not adopted a formal Code of Ethics. The Board of Directors evaluated the business of the Company and the number of employees
and determined that since the business is operated by a small number of persons, general rules of fiduciary duty and federal and
state criminal, business conduct and securities laws are adequate ethical guidelines. In the event our operations, employees and/or
Directors expand in the future, we may take actions to adopt a formal Code of Ethics.
Shareholder
Proposals
Our
Company does not have any defined policy or procedural requirements for shareholders to submit recommendations or nominations
for Directors. The Board of Directors believes that, given the stage of our development, a specific nominating policy would be
premature and of little assistance until our business operations develop to a more advanced level. Our Company does not currently
have any specific or minimum criteria for the election of nominees to the Board of Directors and we do not have any specific process
or procedure for evaluating such nominees. The Board of Directors will assess all candidates, whether submitted by management
or shareholders, and make recommendations for election or appointment.
A
shareholder who wishes to communicate with our Board of Directors may do so by directing a written request addressed to our President,
at the address appearing on the first page of this Information Statement.

financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to
the financial statements, the Company’s losses from operations and no operation raise substantial doubt about its ability
to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding those matters also are described in Note 2. The financial statements
do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis
for Opinion
These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company
in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission
and the PCAOB.
We
conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error
or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial
reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not
for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our
audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error
or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that
our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
Critical audit matters are matters arising from
the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to those charged with governance
and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging,
subjective, or complex judgements. We determined that there are no critical matters.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect the application of certain significant accounting policies as described
in this note and elsewhere in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes.
Basis
of presentation
The
consolidated financial statements for SEATech Ventures Corp. and its subsidiaries for the year ended December 31, 2020 is prepared
in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and include
the accounts of SEATech Ventures Corp. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, SEATech Ventures Corp. and SEATech Ventures (HK) Limited.
Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation. The Company has adopted December 31 as its fiscal
year end.
Basis
of consolidation
The
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries in which the Company is the primary
beneficiary. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.
F- 8
Use
of estimates
Management
uses estimates and assumptions in preparing these financial statements in accordance with US GAAP. Those estimates and assumptions
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in the balance sheets,
and the reported revenue and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Revenue
recognition
In accordance with Financial Accounting
Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts .
ASC 606 creates a five-step model that requires entities to exercise judgment when considering the terms of contracts,
which includes (1) identifying the contracts or agreements with a customer, (2) identifying our performance
obligations in the contract or agreement, (3) determining the transaction price, (4) allocating the transaction price
to the separate performance obligations, and (5) recognizing revenue as each performance obligation is satisfied. The
Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the Company will collect the
consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the services it transfers to its clients.
Revenue
is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of discounts and taxes applicable to the revenue.
The Company derives its revenue from provision of business mentoring, nurturing, incubating and corporate development advisory
services to ICT and technology based companies.
Cost
of revenue
Cost
of revenue includes the cost of services and product in providing business mentoring, nurturing, incubating and corporate development
advisory services
Cash
and cash equivalents
Cash
and cash equivalents are carried at cost and represent cash on hand, demand deposits placed with banks or other financial institutions
and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less as of the purchase date of such investments.
Income
taxes
The
provision of income taxes is determined in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC
740”). Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable
to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted income tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the periods
in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Any effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities
of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
ASC
740 prescribes a comprehensive model for how companies should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in their financial statements
uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740, tax positions must initially be recognized
in the financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities.
Such tax positions must initially and subsequently be measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50%
likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the tax authority assuming full knowledge of the position and relevant
facts.
Going
concern
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and
the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. As reflected in the accompanying financial statements,
for the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company incurred a net loss of $ 107,186 and negative operating cash flow of 401,710 .
These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of
the date that the financial statements are issued. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary
if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
The
Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon improving its profitability and the continuing financial
support from its major shareholders. Management believes the existing shareholders or external financing will provide the
additional cash to meet the Company’s obligations as they become due. No assurance can be given that any future financing,
if needed, will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company. Even if the Company
is able to obtain additional financing, if needed, it may contain undue restrictions on its operations, in the case of debt financing,
or cause substantial dilution for its stock holders, in the case of equity financing.

Net
income/(loss) per share
The
Company calculates net loss per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260 “ Earnings per share ”. Basic loss per
share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted
loss per share is computed similar to basic loss per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional
common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common stock equivalents had been issued and if the additional
common shares were dilutive.
Foreign
currencies translation
The reporting currency of the Company and
its subsidiaries in Labuan and Hong Kong are United States Dollars (“US$”), being the primary currency of the economic
environment in which these entities operate.
Transactions
denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates
prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional
currency are translated into the functional currency using the applicable exchange rates at the balance sheet dates. The resulting
exchange differences are recorded in the statements of operations.
In
general, for consolidation purposes, assets and liabilities of its subsidiary whose functional currency is not the US$ are translated
into US$, in accordance with ASC Topic 830-30, “ Translation of Financial Statement ”, using the exchange rate
on the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates prevailing during the period. The gains and losses
resulting from translation of financial statements of foreign subsidiary are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other
comprehensive income within the statement of stockholders’ equity.
Translation
of amounts from RM into US$1 and HK$ into US$1 has been made at the following exchange rates for the respective periods:

Fair
value of financial instruments:
The
carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments: cash and cash equivalents, subscription receivables, prepayment and
deposits, accounts payable, and other payables and accrued liabilities approximate at their fair values because of the short-term
nature of these financial instruments.
The
Company also follows the guidance of the ASC Topic 820-10, “ Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ” (“ASC
820-10”), with respect to financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value. ASC 820-10 establishes a three-tier
fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
Level
1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;
Level
2: Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
Level
3: Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.
Recent
accounting pronouncements
The
Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and do not believe the future adoption
of any such pronouncements may be expected to cause a material impact on its financial condition or the results of its operations.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02,
“Leases (Topic 842),” to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and
lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. Most prominent among the amendments
is the recognition of assets and liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under current U.S. GAAP.
ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years.
As required by the standard, the Company will adopt the provisions of the new standard effective November 1, 2019, using the required
modified retrospective approach. We believe the adoption will not have a material impact on our financial statements.

Credit risk
Financial
instruments that are potentially subject to credit risk consist principally of accounts receivable. The Company believes the concentration
of credit risk in its trade receivables is substantially mitigated by its ongoing credit evaluation process and relatively short
collection terms. The Company does not generally require collateral from customers. The Company evaluates the need for an allowance
for doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends and other information.
11. SIGNIFICANT
EVENT
During
the fiscal year, the World Health Organization declared the Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak to be a pandemic, which has caused
severe global social and economic disruptions and uncertainties, including markets where the Company operates.
The
Company considers this outbreak as non-adjusting-events. The consequences brought about by Covid-19 continue to evolve and whilst
the Company actively monitoring and managing its operations to respond to these changes, the Company does not consider it practicable
to provide any quantitative estimate on the potential impact it may have on the Company.
12.
