About Fast Track Group

Fast Track Events Pte. Ltd. was incorporated as an exempt private company limited by shares in Singapore on March 8, 2012 as an operating company of our businesses. We are a regional entertainment-focused event management and marketing company that provides a full range of services including experiential marketing, artiste endorsement and management, movie premiere organizations, grand openings and concerts. In addition to our expertise in event and concert management, we offer comprehensive value-added services tailored to meet specific client demands. These include media planning and PR management to boost event visibility, technical production planning for seamless execution of audiovisual requirements, and event manpower support for logistical efficiency. Internally, we handle project management and select media press releases, while sourcing technical support from specialized suppliers across event locations. This integrated approach ensures that we deliver high-quality, customized solutions that meet the diverse needs of our clients, enhancing the success and impact of each event we undertake. Since our inception, we have been instrumental in creating, developing, organizing, hosting, and managing a diverse range of events and concerts for our clients. Leveraging our extensive experience, we have successfully orchestrated large-scale events featuring renowned Asian bands and artistes such as B.A.P, BTS, and David Tao. Additionally, we have hosted international speakers including Michael Franzese and Michelle Yeoh, as well as organized appearances by global celebrities like John Cena and Steven Seagal. Notable milestones include organizing Malaysia’s inaugural Hollywood Movie Premiere Red Carpet event for “Baby Driver,” as well as the acclaimed 2015 BTS Live Trilogy: Episode II The Red Bullet concerts. Furthermore, we managed the successful 2018 Wild Kard Tour showcases held in Sydney and Melbourne, Australia. These events underscore our capability to deliver memorable experiences and highlight our expertise in managing high-profile engagements across different regions and entertainment genres. A significant portion of our revenue are derived from a small number of customers. For example, approximately 100% of our total revenue for the six months ended August 31, 2023 was generated from two major customers, who are also related parties and one major customer accounted for 100% of our total revenue for the six months ended August 31, 2024. One major customer accounted for 100% of our total revenue for the year ended February 28, 2023, and approximately 75% of our total revenue for the year ended February 29, 2024 was generated from two major customers, who are also related parties. Due to the nature of our business, our portfolio of major customers may vary from year to year as our customers may only be holding one or two events and/or concerts in a year and such events and/or concerts may not be held on a regular basis. We may continue to have a concentration of customers in the future, and we face the risk of losing a significant source of revenue if our major customers do not engage our services and we cannot secure new customers on time. Part of our diversification strategy involves expanding into various facets of the entertainment industry, including Live Entertainment and Agency services, which would allow us to not be reliant on a single revenue source and maintain stability even when one segment faces challenges. Our principal place of business is in Singapore.
