Ongoing Operations
The Company continues to work on establishing partnerships with media companies, marketing organizations, automotive brands, fashion companies and others, in order to create the most diverse and realistic metaverse experience for all users and brands. This is expected to allow brands to create further value by monetizing existing products, services and/or intellectual properties.
The Company specializes in consumer engagement applications to leverage immersive metaverse environments, gamification and Web 3.0/blockchain monetization strategies.
The Company’s roadmap for 2023 and 2024 consists of furthering its Web 3.0 monetization strategies and finding additional avenues to utilize its developed metaverse environments.
Pocket Dimension Metaverse
The Pocket Dimension metaverse is a hyper-realistic digital world that is being built using the latest version of Unreal Engine in order to offer users a premium virtual experience. Pocket Dimensions feature 10 different environments.

Content Creation
The Company has an in-house design and blockchain development team, available to provide consulting services such as NFT design and back-end solutions to third-party clients. The Company has successful launched several Web 3.0 strategies for company’s seeking to expand from traditional consumer markets to Web 3.0.
Crypto Assets and Safeguards
The Company stores its Ethereum cryptocurrency (“ETH”), the main cryptocurrency used in NFT markets, on physical hardware device often referred to as a “hardware wallet”. The hardware device is similar looking to a USB thumb drive, except instead of saving data to the device, the devices store cryptocurrency offline. The Company does not hold any other cryptocurrencies beyond ETH. The seed phrase to be used to retrieve the contents of the wallet if the ledger device is physically lost is maintained by two officers of the Company. If the ledger device is lost, the officers of the Company may gain access of the wallet by providing the correct seed phrase. The redundancy is to ensure that the seed phrase is available if required at any time. On a weekly basis, the Company assesses the cryptocurrency market conditions and its quarterly budget requirements while it monitors and liquidates its ETH holdings into Canadian currency on at least a bi-weekly basis by transferring the required ETH on a cryptocurrency exchange for immediate sale for Canadian currency.
