INTRODUCTION

This report contains forward-looking statements and the Company's actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward looking statements as a result of numerous factors, including those set forth below and elsewhere in this report.

PART I

ITEM 1:

BUSINESS

General Development of Business

INVENT Ventures, Inc. (“INVENT”), formerly known as Los Angeles Syndicate of Technology, Inc., is a technology venture fund that creates, builds, and invests in web and mobile technology companies. We develop businesses in the consumer Internet, mobile and biotechnology markets, and own six companies at different stages of development.

We supply our companies with the capital to cultivate their initial product, and provide hands-on support services to reduce startup costs and accelerate time to market. Our services include product development and design, corporate formation and structure, and exposure to additional financing. INVENT also provides office space, financial and accounting resources, marketing and branding, and legal guidance. By offering these services, we enable our network of entrepreneurs to focus on developing their products. We believe that this structure offers the most value for entrepreneurs and the highest return potential to investors, and results in efficiencies in how companies are built and brought to market.

Our mission is to foster technology innovation in Los Angeles by partnering with the most talented entrepreneurs in southern California and providing them with the capital and tools to bring new ideas to market.

INVENT operates as an internally-managed, non-diversified, closed-end investment company that has elected to be treated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940. From incorporation through December 31, 2010, the Company was taxed as a corporation under Subchapter C of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, (the “Code”). Effective January 1, 2011, the Company has elected to be treated for tax purposes as a regulated investment company, or RIC, under the Code (see Note 7).

Our stock is publicly listed on the OTCQB market under the symbol “IDEA”.

Market Opportunity

The web and mobile technology industries are rapidly growing sectors of the U.S. economy, and companies building social media applications have grown their user bases and revenues at unprecedented rates in recent years. We believe that an attractive opportunity exists for a public investment company focused on building a portfolio of early-stage technology companies, and key elements of our opportunity include:

Global adoption of Internet infrastructure and the proliferation of mobile technology. The cost of Internet access continues to decline, facilitating an increasing number of Internet users and driving up time spent online. This trend is magnified by the proliferation of smartphones and mobile technology, resulting in users with perpetual access to the Internet. As the Internet becomes more accessible, more data is being transmitted online, requiring evolving applications and businesses to manage this flow of information.

Dramatic shifts in the way people share and consume information. The growing usage and availability of the Internet results in an increasing number of human connections. As more people are connected, an increasing volume of information is being shared. The benefits of this information flow manifest themselves in more ways than simply interacting with friends, and the Internet is becoming an increasingly important tool in businesses’ marketing programs. Connectivity among humans, when harnessed by businesses, can drive marketing costs down to virtually zero. We believe that as more consumption occurs on the Internet, more mediums of efficiently disseminating information are required. This secular shift creates vast opportunities for companies creating and investing in these technologies.

Declining costs to build web- and mobile-based technology . The cost of starting and operating an Internet-based business has dramatically declined over the last decade as a result of dropping hardware costs and maturing open-source software. This decline has resulted in a shift in the capabilities web technology founders look for in a partner. Increasingly, entrepreneurs are valuing business support, brand connections, marketing and product support over the level of funding available from a partner. This adaptation creates a large and growing opportunity for web-technology incubators providing comprehensive support services to entrepreneurs.

Increasing focus on web-based technology companies by the capital market. The explosive growth of social media companies has attracted significant capital from investors. As builders of technology businesses, we benefit from this heightened desire for social media investments through greater subsequent financing and sale opportunities for our portfolio companies.

Our Business Strategy

Our goal is to build and invest in web and mobile technology companies that will generate capital appreciation and realized gains. We believe that by developing technology internally and partnering with entrepreneurs at inception, we can generate the highest return and add the most value for our syndicate of entrepreneurs. The following are key elements of our strategy:

Guide our portfolio companies through the challenges of early development. We provide portfolio companies with the capital to cultivate their product and grow into profitability. Beyond capital support, INVENT reduces costs and time to market through managerial assistance, marketing resources, and technological collaboration. As the companies mature, we prepare them for subsequent financing rounds or other liquidity events by providing strategic guidance, legal and accounting resources, and access to the capital markets.

Apply a structured investment process to our deployment of capital. Web-based technology is becoming increasingly capital-efficient, and our model is optimized to leverage this trend. By investing in the earliest stages of our companies’ lifecycles we are able to generate significant returns with minimal capital investment. Capital is deployed based on pre-determined development milestones, with a maximum investment of $500,000 per portfolio company. The INVENT diligence process includes both qualitative and quantitative analyses, and input from our network constituents to determine the value proposition, viability and defensibility of each business.

Build a diverse portfolio of innovative and dynamic technology companies. The low capital investment requirements of our target industries, coupled with the short development timeline of technology companies, enable us to spread our capital base across a wide spectrum of investments. Some companies will achieve positive cash flow, some will require further capital, and some will fail. Through the construction of a diverse portfolio we believe we will mitigate risk and enhance the value of our network.

Corporate History

The Company, formerly Los Angeles Syndicate of Technology (“LAST”), Bay Street Capital (“BSC”), Small Cap Strategies (“SCS”), and Photonics Corporation (“Photonics”), was re-domiciled in Nevada through a reverse merger effective on September 30, 2006 where Photonics, a California corporation, merged into Small Cap Strategies, Inc., a Nevada corporation, with SCS being the surviving entity. The effect of this corporate action was to change the Company’s state of incorporation from the State of California to the State of Nevada.

On March 7, 2006 we filed a notification under Form N-54A with the SEC indicating our election to be regulated as a BDC under the 1940 Act.

On November 24, 2008, we filed Form N-54C with the SEC to notify the SEC of the withdrawal of our previous election to be regulated as a BDC under the 1940 Act. This action was taken to best facilitate our planned business model of developing and producing oil and natural gas. The company entered into a letter of intent to acquire all the major oil and gas properties of Xtreme Oil & Gas, Inc. (XTOG.PK), which was a major shareholder of the Company. After several attempts to reach a deal to purchase the properties of Xtreme, it became evident that a deal could not be reached in the 4 ^th Quarter of 2009.

The Board of Directors resolved on November 15, 2009 that the company would again pursue the business model of an investment and management company. On April 12, 2010, we filed Form N-54A with the SEC to elect to be treated as a BDC governed under the 1940 Act.

On July 20, 2010, the Company’s Board of Directors unanimously approved and a majority of shareholders consented to a Name Change to Bay Street Capital, Inc. and authorized the Company in enact a 1 for 50 reverse stock split of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock. Both corporate actions were effective with FINRA on August 31, 2010.

On September 24, 2010 the Company’s Board of Directors unanimously approved and a majority of shareholders consented to a Name Change to Los Angeles Syndicate of Technology, Inc. (“LAST”). The name change was effective with FINRA on October 14, 2010.

On February 9, 2011, the Company’s Board of Directors was notified by Management that Vineet Jindal and Brendon Crawford, previously the Chief Investment Officer and Chief Technology Officer of INVENT, resigned from LAST to assume the Chief Executive Officer and lead engineer positions, respectively, at Stockr, a majority owned portfolio company of INVENT

On February 12, 2011 the Company’s Board of Directors were notified by Management that the Company would exercise its repurchase option to purchase 2,700,000 shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to its Share Purchase Agreement and Employment Agreement with Mr. Jindal. Per the terms of the agreement, INVENT repurchased 600,000 shares at Mr. Jindal’s cost value and then cancelled those shares. The Company transferred its right to repurchase the remaining 2,100,000 to employees of INVENT, who repurchased these shares at Mr. Jindal’s original cost value.

On July 20, 2012, the Company’s Board of Directors and stockholders holding a majority of our voting shares authorized the following actions:

The amendment of our Articles of Incorporation to change our corporate name to INVENT Ventures, Inc. (the “Name Change”). The Name Change was effective on September 19, 2012;

Request to FINRA that our stock symbol be changed from “LAST” to “IDEA” (the “Symbol Change”). Our stock symbol was temporarily changed by FINRA to “LASTD” until October 19, 2012 when it permanently changed to “IDEA”;

The implementation of a forward stock split of our common stock issued and outstanding where every one (1) share of our common stock owned by a stockholder automatically changed into and become three (3) new shares of our common stock (the “Forward Stock Split”). The Forward Stock Split became effective on September 19, 2012.

Following the Forward Stock Split, there were 36,800,697 shares outstanding as of September 30, 2012.

The Company currently operates as an internally managed closed-end non-diversified Business Development Company and is traded under the symbol “IDEA”.

Pursuant to Regulation S-X, Rule 6, the Company operates on a non-consolidated basis. Operations of portfolio companies are reported at the portfolio company level and only the appreciation or impairment of these investments is included in the Company’s financial statements. Pursuant to FASB Topic 250, the Company had a change in accounting principle when it re-elected to BDC status. Topic 250 requires retroactive restatement of the company’s financial statements to conform to the current presentation for all periods presented.

A BDC must make significant managerial assistance available to the issuers of eligible portfolio securities in which it invests. Making available significant managerial assistance means, among other things, any arrangement whereby the BDC, through its directors, officers or employees, offers to provide, and, if accepted does provide, significant guidance and counsel concerning the management, operations or business objectives and policies of a portfolio company.

We provide a variety of services to portfolio companies, including the following:

product development and design;

corporate formation and structure;

investment of our capital;

introductions to sources of outside capital;

office space and related office services;

marketing, branding and public relations

formulating operating strategies and corporate goals;

formulating intellectual property and other legal strategies;

introductions to investment bankers and other professionals;

mergers and acquisitions advice;

introductions to potential joint venture partners, suppliers and customers; and

assisting in financial planning.

We may derive income from our portfolio companies for the performance of these services, which may be paid in cash or securities.

Under the 1940 Act, a BDC is subject to restrictions on the amount of warrants, options, restricted stock or rights to purchase shares of capital stock that it may have outstanding at any time. In particular, the amount of capital stock that would result from the conversion or exercise of all outstanding warrants, options or rights to purchase capital stock cannot exceed 25% of the BDC's total outstanding shares of capital stock. This amount is reduced to 20% of the BDC's total outstanding shares of capital stock if the amount of warrants, options or rights issued pursuant to an executive compensation plan would exceed 15% of the BDC'stotal outstanding shares of capital stock.

We will be permitted, under specified conditions, to issue multiple classes of indebtedness and one class of stock senior to our common stock if our asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, is at least equal to 200% immediately after each such issuance. In addition, we may not be permitted to declare any cash dividend or other distribution on our outstanding common shares, or purchase any such shares, unless, at the time of such declaration or purchase, we have asset coverage of at least 200% after deducting the amount of such dividend, distribution, or purchase price. We may also borrow amounts up to 5% of the value of our total assets for temporary or emergency purposes.

Compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002

On July 30, 2002, then-President Bush signed into law the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the "Sarbanes-Oxley Act"). The Sarbanes-Oxley Act imposes a wide variety of new regulatory requirements on publicly held companies and their insiders. Many of these requirements affect us. For example:

Our chief executive officer and chief financial officer must now certify the accuracy of the financial statements contained in our periodic reports;

Our periodic reports must disclose our conclusions about the effectiveness of our controls and procedures;

Our periodic reports must disclose whether there were significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation, including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses; and

We may not make any loan to any director or executive officer and we may not materially modify any existing loans.

Income Tax Considerations

From incorporation through December 31, 2010, the Company was taxed as a corporation under Subchapter C of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, (the “Code”). Effective January 1, 2011, the Company has elected to be treated for tax purposes as a Regulated Investment Company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Code and, as such, will not be subject to federal income tax on the portion of taxable income and gains distributed to stockholders.

To qualify as a RIC, we are required to meet certain income and asset diversification tests. In addition, in order to be eligible for pass-through tax treatment as a RIC, we must distribute to our stockholders, for each taxable year, at least 90% of our “investment company taxable income” as defined by the Code.

Taxable income includes the Company’s taxable interest, dividend and fee income, as well as taxable net capital gains. Taxable income generally differs from net income for financial reporting purposes due to temporary and permanent differences in the recognition of income and expenses, and generally excludes net unrealized appreciation or depreciation, as gains or losses are not included in taxable income until they are realized.

EMPLOYEES

At December 31, 2013 and 2012, we had 5 and 4 full-time employees, respectively.

Our employees are not represented by a labor union. We have experienced no work stoppage and believe that our employee relationships are good.

ITEM 1A:

RISK FACTORS

We recently undertook our current business model and as a result, historical results may not be relied upon with regard to our operating history

In March 2010, we formally began implementing our current business model of providing seed capital and support to web and mobile technology companies. We are classified as an investment company under the 1940 Investment Company Act. As such, we have presented our financial results and accompanying notes in such fashion. Conversely, in previous years our operating results were presented in the format and style of an operating company. As a result, our financial performance and statements may not be comparable between these years.

We and our portfolio companies are in early stages of development, and are among many that have entered the emerging web-based technology market. Specific risks to our business include our:

ability to source and market innovative businesses and acquire ownership interests in attractive companies;

dependence on our portfolio companies to reach positive cash flow generation, a liquidity event, or our ability to access the capital markets;

need to manage our expanding portfolio and operational footprint; and

continuing need to increase spending to retain and attract key personnel, build the INVENT brand and increase awareness of our portfolio companies.

Our business model is largely unproven and may not generate the returns we anticipate

Our approach to venture capital investing is based on a new, untested business model involving sourcing, cultivating and operating businesses in an evolving web-based technology market. While competitors pursuing a similar strategy exist, insufficient time has elapsed to judge whether their portfolio companies will ultimately be successful. As an increasing number of incubators compete for the same ideas and innovative companies, the cost of acquiring ownership of such companies may increase, driving potential returns down. In addition, due to the inherent long-term nature of venture capital investments, we may forego short-term gains that we could otherwise realize by selling interests in our portfolio companies.

The Company Historically Lost Money and Losses May Continue in the Future

The Company has historically lost money and future losses could occur. Accordingly, we may experience significant liquidity and cash flow problems if we are not able to raise additional capital as needed and on acceptable terms. No assurances can be given that we will be successful in reaching or maintaining profitable operations.

The Company's expenses are higher than our current cash flow, which will require the Company to issue equity to raise capital. This could result in substantial dilution to our shareholders’ equity or hinder our ability to continue in operations should additional capital not be raised

In 2013, the Company had $144,144 in operating revenues. Consequently, the Company will have to sell shares of the Company's common stock or issue promissory notes to raise the cash necessary to pay ongoing expenses. Moreover, there is no assurance the Company will be able to find investors willing to purchase Company shares at a price and on terms acceptable to the Company, in which case, the Company could further deplete its cash resources.

The success of the Company will depend on management's ability to make successful investments

If the Company is unable to select profitable investments, the Company will not achieve its objectives and miss any projected earnings targets.

The Company's investment activities are inherently risky

The Company's investment activities involve a significant degree of risk. The performance of any investment is subject to numerous factors which are neither within the control of, nor predictable by, the Company. Such factors include a wide range of economic, political, competitive and other conditions, which may affect investments in general, or specific industries or companies.

The Company's equity investments may lose all or part of their value, causing the Company to lose all or part of its investment in those companies

The equity interests in which the Company invests may not appreciate in value and may decline in value. Accordingly, the Company may not be able to realize gains from its investments and any gains realized on the disposition of any equity interests may not be sufficient to offset any losses experienced. Moreover, the Company's primary objective is to invest in early-stage web and mobile technology companies whose products will frequently not have demonstrated market acceptance. Many portfolio companies will lack depth of management and have limited financial resources. All of these factors make investments in the Company's portfolio companies particularly risky.

We may change our investment policies without further shareholder approval

Although we are limited by the 1940 Act with respect to the percentage of our assets that must be invested in qualified portfolio companies, we are not limited with respect to the minimum standard that any investment must meet, neither are we limited to the industries in which those portfolio companies must operate. We may make investments without shareholder approval and such investments may deviate significantly from our historic operations. Any change in our investment policy or selection of investments could adversely affect our stock price, liquidity, and the ability of our shareholders to sell their stock.

The Company's concentration of portfolio company securities

The Company will attempt to hold the securities of several different portfolio companies. However, a significant amount of the Company's holdings could be concentrated in the securities of only a few companies. This risk is particularly acute during this time period of early Company operations, which could result in significant concentration with respect to a particular issuer or industry. The concentration of the Company's portfolio in any one issuer or industry would subject the Company to a greater degree of risk with respect to the failure of one or a few issuers or with respect to economic downturns in such industry than would be the case with a more diversified portfolio.

Because many of the Company's portfolio securities will be recorded at values as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, the prices at which the Company is able to dispose of these holdings may differ from their respective recorded values

The Company values its portfolio securities at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors. For privately held securities, and to a lesser extent, for publicly-traded securities, this valuation is more of an art than a science. The Board of Directors may retain an independent valuation firm to aid it on a selective basis in making fair value determinations. The types of factors that may be considered in fair value pricing of an investment include the markets in which the portfolio company does business, comparison of the portfolio company to (other) publicly traded companies, discounted cash flow of the portfolio company, and other relevant factors. Because such valuations are inherently uncertain, may fluctuate during short periods of time, and may be based on estimates, determinations of fair value may differ materially from the values that would have been used if a ready market for these securities existed. As a result, the Company may not be able to dispose of its holdings at a price equal to or greater than the determined fair value. Net asset value could be adversely affected if the determination regarding the fair value of Company investments is materially higher than the values ultimately realized upon the disposal of such securities.

Holding securities of privately held companies may be riskier than holding securities of publicly held companies due to the lack of available public information

The Company will primarily hold securities in privately held companies, which may be subject to higher risk than holdings in publicly held companies. Generally, little public information exists about privately held companies, and the Company will be required to rely on the ability of management to obtain adequate information to evaluate the potential risks and returns involved in investing in these companies. If the Company is unable to uncover all material information about these companies, it may not make a fully informed investment decision, and it may lose some or all of the money it invests in these companies. These factors could subject the Company to greater risk than holding securities in publicly traded companies and negatively affect investment returns.

The Company is subject to risks created by the valuation of its portfolio investments

There is typically no public market for equity securities of the small privately held companies in which the Company will invest. As a result, the valuations of the equity securities in the Company’s portfolio are stated at fair value as determined by the good faith estimate of the Company’s Board of Directors. In the absence of a readily ascertainable market value, the estimated value of the Company’s portfolio of securities may differ significantly, favorably or unfavorably, from the values that would be placed on the portfolio if a ready market for the equity securities existed. Any changes in estimated value are recorded in the statement of operations as “Change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments.”

The Company’s portfolio investments are illiquid

Most of the Company’s investments are, and will be, equity securities acquired directly from small companies. The Company’s portfolio of equity securities is, and will usually be, subject to restrictions on resale or otherwise have no established trading market. The illiquidity of most of the Company’s portfolio may adversely affect the ability of the Company to dispose of the securities at times when it may be advantageous for the Company to liquidate investments.

Investing in private companies involves a high degree of risk

The Company will invest a substantial portion of its assets in small, private companies. These private businesses may be thinly capitalized, unproven companies with risky technologies, may lack management depth, and may not have attained profitability. Because of the speculative nature and the lack of a public market for these investments, there is significantly greater risk of loss than is the case with traditional investment securities. The Company expects that some of its venture capital investments will be a complete loss or will be unprofitable and that some will appear to be likely to become successful but never realize their potential. Even if the Company’s portfolio companies are able to develop commercially viable products, the market for new products and services is highly competitive and rapidly changing. Commercial success is difficult to predict and the marketing efforts of the portfolio companies may not be successful.

The Company is subject to risks created by its regulated environment

The Company is regulated by the SEC. Changes in the laws or regulations that govern BDCs could significantly affect the Company’s business. Regulations and laws may be changed periodically, and the interpretations of the relevant regulations and laws are also subject to change. Any change in the regulations and laws governing the Company’s business could have a material impact on its financial condition or its results of operations.

The Company is dependent upon key management personnel for future success

The Company is dependent on the diligence and skill of its senior officers for the selection, structuring, closing and monitoring of its investments. The future success of the Company depends to a significant extent on the continued service and coordination of its senior management. The departure of any of its executive officers could adversely affect the Company’s ability to implement its business strategy. The Company does not maintain key man life insurance on any of its officers or employees.

The Company operates in a competitive market for investment opportunities

The Company faces competition in its investing activities from many entities including SBICs, private venture capital funds, investment affiliates of large companies, wealthy individuals and other domestic or foreign investors. The competition is not limited to entities that operate in the same geographical area as the Company. As a regulated BDC, the Company is required to disclose quarterly and annually the name and business description of portfolio companies and the value of its portfolio securities. Most of its competitors are not subject to this disclosure requirement. The Company’s obligation to disclose this information could hinder its ability to invest in certain portfolio companies. Additionally, other regulations, current and future, may make the Company less attractive as a potential investor to a given portfolio company than a private venture capital fund.

We may be negatively affected by adverse changes in the general economic conditions of the domestic and global markets.

The continued economic crisis and related turmoil in the global financial markets has had and may continue to have an impact on the Company’s portfolio companies and the overall financial condition of the Company. If the current market conditions deteriorate, the Company may suffer losses on its investment portfolio, which could have a material adverse effect on net asset value.

We may experience fluctuations of quarterly and annual operating results

The Company’s quarterly and annual operating results could fluctuate significantly as a result of a number of factors. These factors include, among others, variations in and the timing of the recognition of realized and unrealized gains or losses, the degree to which portfolio companies encounter competition in their markets, and general economic conditions. As a result of these factors, results for any one quarter should not be relied upon as being indicative of performance in future quarters.

There is a risk that investors in our equity securities may not receive dividends or that our dividends may not grow over time.

We intend to make distributions on a quarterly basis to our stockholders out of assets legally available for distribution. There can be no assurance that we will achieve investment results that will allow us to make a specified level of cash distributions or year-to-year increases in cash distributions. If we declare a dividend and if more stockholders opt to receive cash distributions rather than participate in our dividend reinvestment plan, we may be forced to sell some of our investments in order to make cash dividend payments. In addition, due to the asset coverage test applicable to us as a BDC, we may be limited in our ability to make distributions. Further, if we invest a greater amount of assets in equity securities that do not pay current dividends, it could reduce the amount available for distribution.

We may in the future choose to pay dividends in our own stock, in which case our stockholders may be required to pay tax in excess of the cash they receive, and which may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

We may distribute taxable dividends that are payable in part in our stock. Under a recently issued IRS revenue procedure, up to 90% of any such taxable dividend for taxable years ending prior to 2012 could be payable in our stock. The IRS has also issued (and where Revenue Procedure 2009-15 or 2010-12 is not currently applicable, the IRS continues to issue) private letter rulings on cash/stock dividends paid by regulated investment companies and real estate investment trusts using a 20% cash standard (instead of the 10% cash standard of Revenue Procedures 2009-15 and 2010-12) if certain requirements are satisfied. Taxable stockholders receiving such dividends will be required to include the full amount of the dividend as ordinary income (or as long-term capital gain to the extent such distribution is properly designated as a capital gain dividend) to the extent of our current and accumulated earnings and profits for United States federal income tax purposes. As a result, a U.S. stockholder may be required to pay tax with respect to such dividends in excess of any cash received. If a U.S. stockholder sells the stock it receives as a dividend in order to pay this tax, the sales proceeds may be less than the amount included in income with respect to the dividend, depending on the market price of our stock at the time of the sale. Furthermore, with respect to non-U.S. stockholders, we may be required to withhold U.S. tax with respect to such dividends, including in respect of all or a portion of such dividend that is payable in stock. In addition, if a significant number of our stockholders determine to sell shares of our stock in order to pay taxes owed on dividends, it may put downward pressure on the trading price of our stock.

Regulations governing operations of a BDC will affect the Company's ability to raise capital, which could result in the Company not being able to raise additional capital

Applicable law requires that business development companies must invest 70% of their assets in privately held U.S. companies, small, publicly traded U.S. companies with market capitalizations under $250 million, certain high-quality debt, and cash. The Company is not generally able to issue and sell common stock at a price below net asset value per share. The Company may, however, sell common stock, or warrants, options or rights to acquire common stock, at prices below the current net asset value of the common stock if the Board of Directors determines that such sale is in the best interests of the Company, and its stockholders approve such sale. In any such case, the price at which the Company's securities are to be issued and sold may not be less than a price which, in the determination of the Board of Directors, closely approximates the market value of such securities (less any distributing commission or discount).

Limited regulatory oversight may require potential investors to fend for themselves

The Company has elected to be treated as a BDC under the 1940 Act which makes the Company exempt from some provisions of that statute. The Company is not registered as a broker-dealer or investment advisor because the nature of its proposed activities does not require it to do so; moreover it is not registered as a commodity pool operator under the Commodity Exchange Act, based on its intention not to trade commodities or financial futures. However, the Company is a reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. As a result of this limited regulatory oversight, the Company is not subject to certain operating limitations, capital requirements, or reporting obligations that might otherwise apply and investors may be left to fend for themselves.

Because we are required to distribute substantially all of our net investment income and net realized capital gains to our stockholders, we will continue to need additional capital to finance our growth.

We have elected to be taxed for federal income tax purposes as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. If we can meet certain requirements, including source of income, asset diversification and distribution requirements, and if we continue to qualify as a BDC, we will continue to qualify to be a RIC under the Code and will not have to pay corporate-level taxes on income we distribute to our stockholders as dividends, allowing us to substantially reduce or eliminate our corporate-level tax liability. As a BDC, we are generally required to meet a coverage ratio of total assets to total senior securities, which includes all of our borrowings and any preferred stock we may issue in the future, of at least 200%. This requirement limits the amount that we may borrow. Because we will continue to need capital to grow our investment portfolio, this limitation may prevent us from incurring debt and require us to raise additional equity at a time when it may be disadvantageous to do so. We cannot assure you that debt and equity financing will be available to us on favorable terms, if at all, and debt financings may be restricted by the terms of any of our outstanding borrowings. In addition, as a BDC, we are generally not permitted to issue equity securities priced below net asset value without stockholder approval. If additional funds are not available to us, we could be forced to curtail or cease new lending and investment activities, and our net asset value and profitability could decline.

Loss of status as a RIC would reduce our net asset value and distributable income.

We currently qualify as a RIC under the Code and intend to continue to qualify each year as a RIC. As a RIC we do not have to pay federal income taxes on our income (including realized gains) that is distributed to our stockholders, provided that we satisfy certain distribution requirements. Accordingly, we are not permitted under accounting rules to establish reserves for taxes on our unrealized capital gains. If we fail to qualify for RIC status in any year, to the extent that we had unrealized gains, we would have to establish reserves for taxes, which would reduce our net asset value. In addition, if we, as a RIC, were to decide to make a deemed distribution of net realized capital gains and retain the net realized capital gains, we would have to establish appropriate reserves for taxes that we would have to pay on behalf of stockholders. It is possible that establishing reserves for taxes could have a material adverse effect on the value of our common stock.

There is a risk that we may not make distributions and consequently will be subject to corporate-level income tax.

We intend to make distributions on a quarterly basis to our stockholders out of assets legally available for distribution. We may not be able to achieve operating results that will allow us to make distributions at a specific level or to increase the amount of these distributions from time to time. In addition, due to the asset coverage test applicable to us as a BDC, we may be limited in our ability to make distributions. Also, restrictions and provisions in our existing and any future debt arrangements may limit our ability to make distributions. If we do not distribute a certain percentage of our income annually, we could fail to qualify for tax treatment as a RIC, and we would be subject to corporate-level federal income tax. We cannot assure you that you will receive distributions at a particular level or at all.

We may have difficulty paying our required distributions if we recognize income before or without receiving cash representing such income.

In accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, and tax regulations, we include in income certain amounts that we have not yet received in cash, such as accrued dividends or payment-in-kind interest (“PIK” interest), which represents contractual interest added to the loan balance and due at the end of the loan term. The increases in dividends receivable and loan balances as a result of accrued dividends and contracted payment-in-kind arrangements are included in income for the period in which such amount was accrued, which is often in advance of receiving cash payment. Any warrants that we receive in connection with our investments are generally valued as part of the negotiation process with the particular portfolio company. As a result, a portion of the aggregate purchase price for the equity or debt investments and warrants are allocated to the warrants that we receive. This may result in “original issue discount” for tax purposes, which we must recognize as ordinary income, increasing the amounts we are required to distribute to qualify for the federal income tax benefits applicable to RICs. Because such original issue discount income would not be accompanied by cash, we would need to obtain cash from other sources to satisfy such distribution requirements. If we are unable to obtain cash from other sources to satisfy such distribution requirements, we may fail to qualify for favorable tax treatment as a RIC and, thus, could become subject to a corporate-level income tax on all of our income. Since in certain cases we may recognize income before or without receiving cash representing such income, we may have difficulty meeting the requirement to distribute at least 90% of our net ordinary income and realized net short-term capital gains in excess of realized net long-term capital losses, if any. If we are unable to meet these distribution requirements, we will not qualify for favorable tax treatment as a RIC or, even if such distribution requirements are satisfied, we may be subject to tax on the amount that is undistributed. Accordingly, we may have to sell some of our assets, raise additional debt or equity capital or reduce new investment originations to meet these distribution requirements and avoid tax.

We will be subject to corporate-level income tax if we are unable to maintain our qualification as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code or do not satisfy the annual distribution requirement.

To maintain RIC status and be relieved of federal taxes on income and gains distributed to our stockholders, we must meet the following annual distribution, income source and asset diversification requirements.


	•		The annual distribution requirement for a RIC will be satisfied if we distribute to our stockholders on an annual basis at least 90% of our net ordinary income and realized net short-term capital gains in excess of realized net long-term capital losses, if any. Because we may use debt financing, we are subject to an asset coverage ratio requirement under the 1940 Act and we may be subject to certain financial covenants under our debt arrangements that could, under certain circumstances, restrict us from making distributions necessary to satisfy the distribution requirement. If we are unable to obtain cash from other sources, we could fail to qualify for RIC tax treatment and thus become subject to corporate-level income tax.


	•		The income source requirement will be satisfied if we obtain at least 90% of our income for each year from dividends, interest, gains from the sale of stock or securities or similar sources.


	•		The asset diversification requirement will be satisfied if we meet certain asset diversification requirements at the end of each quarter of our taxable year. To satisfy this requirement, at least 50% of the value of our assets must consist of cash, cash equivalents, U.S. government securities, securities of other RICs, and other acceptable securities; and no more than 25% of the value of our assets can be invested in the securities, other than U.S. government securities or securities of other RICs, of one issuer, of two or more issuers that are controlled, as determined under applicable Code rules, by us and that are engaged in the same or similar or related trades or businesses or of certain “qualified publicly traded partnerships.” We also expect to rely on certain exemptions from the asset diversification test by nature of our investment in development corporations. Failure to meet these requirements or qualify for these exemptions may result in our having to dispose of certain investments quickly in order to prevent the loss of RIC status. Because most of our investments will be in private companies, and therefore will be relatively illiquid, any such dispositions could be made at disadvantageous prices and could result in substantial losses.

If we fail to qualify for or maintain RIC status for any reason and are subject to corporate-level income tax, the resulting corporate-level taxes could substantially reduce our net assets, the amount of income available for distribution and the amount of our distributions. Such a failure would have a material adverse effect on us and our stockholders.

Our common stock is traded on the "Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board," which may make it more difficult for investors to resell their shares due to suitability requirements

Our common stock is currently listed on the OTCBB and OTCQB markets under the symbol (“IDEA”). Some broker-dealers decline to trade in OTCBB stocks given the markets for such securities are often limited, the stocks are more volatile, and the risk to investors is greater. These factors may reduce the potential market for our common stock by reducing the number of potential investors. This may make it more difficult for investors in our common stock to sell shares to third parties or to otherwise dispose of their shares. This could cause our stock price to decline.

Our officers and directors have the ability to exercise significant influence over matters submitted for stockholder approval and their interests may differ from other stockholders

Our executive officers and directors have the ability to appoint a majority to the Board of Directors. Accordingly, our directors and executive officers, whether acting alone or together, may have significant influence in determining the outcome of any corporate transaction or other matter submitted to our Board for approval, including issuing common and preferred stock, appointing officers, which could have a material impact on mergers, acquisitions, consolidations and the sale of all, or substantially all, of our assets, and the power to prevent or cause a change in control. The interests of the executive officers and directors may differ from the interests of the other stockholders.

Our share ownership is concentrated

Our Company's Management team beneficially owns approximately 70% of the Company's voting shares. As a result, Management will exert significant influence over all matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election and removal of directors, any merger, consolidation or sale of all, or substantially all, of the assets, as well as any charter amendment and other matters requiring stockholder approval. In addition, the chief executive officer may dictate the day to day management of the business. This concentration of ownership may delay or prevent a change in control and may have a negative impact on the market price of the Company's common stock by discouraging third party investors. In addition, the interests of Company Management may not always coincide with the interests of the Company's other stockholders.

The Company's common stock may be subject to the penny stock rules, which might make it harder for stockholders to sell

As a result of our stock price, our shares are subject to the penny stock rules. Because a "penny stock" is, generally speaking, one selling for less than $5.00 per share, the Company's common stock may be subject to the following rules. The application of these penny stock rules may affect stockholders' ability to sell their shares because some broker-dealers may not be willing to make a market in the Company's common stock because of the burdens imposed upon them by the penny stock rules which include but are not limited to:

Section 15(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and SEC Rules 15g-1 through 15g-6, which impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell Company securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors.

Rule 15g-2 declares unlawful any broker-dealer transactions in penny stocks unless the broker-dealer has first provided to the customer a standardized disclosure document.

Rule 15g-3 provides that it is unlawful for a broker-dealer to engage in a penny stock transaction unless the broker-dealer first discloses and subsequently confirms to the customer the current quotation prices or similar market information concerning the penny stock in question.

Rule 15g-4 prohibits broker-dealers from completing penny stock transactions for a customer unless the broker-dealer first discloses to the customer the amount of compensation or other remuneration received as a result of the penny stock transaction.

Rule 15g-5 requires that a broker-dealer executing a penny stock transaction, other than one exempt under Rule 15g-1, disclose to its customer, at the time of or prior to the transaction, information about the sales person’s compensation.

Our independent registered public accounting firm, in their audit report related to our financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

As a result of our continued losses, our independent auditors have included an explanatory paragraph in their report on our financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, expressing substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. The inclusion of a going concern explanatory paragraph in the report of our independent auditors could make it more difficult for us to secure additional financing on terms acceptable to us, if at all, and could materially and adversely affect the terms of any financing that we might obtain. If we cannot raise additional capital in the future and our operating expenses continue to exceed our operating income, the value of our common stock could decline significantly.

ITEM 2: PROPERTIES

Our principal headquarters is located at 1930 Ocean Avenue in Santa Monica, California for which the Company pays $3,400 a month. Several of our portfolio companies have offices in nearby building campuses, for which the Company pays $4,600 a month, which is allocated to the portfolio companies currently occupying their respective offices, and is classified as advances to portfolio companies. We believe these facilities, which are in good physical condition, are adequate to support our growth over the next 12 months.

Our corporate headquarters are located at 3651 Lindell Road, Suites D #145-146, Las Vegas, Nevada 89103. We pay approximately $200 a month for two executive offices and administrative support.

ITEM 3: LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are not currently subject to any legal proceedings, nor, to our knowledge, is any legal proceeding threatened against us.

ITEM 4: MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES

MARKET

Our Common Stock trades on the OTCQB market under the symbol: IDEA.

HISTORICAL MARKET PRICE DATA

These prices represent prices between broker-dealers and do not include retail markups and markdowns or any commission to broker-dealers. In addition, these prices may not reflect prices in actual transactions.

Shares of BDCs may trade at a market price that is more or less than the value of the net assets attributable to those shares. The possibility that our shares of common stock will trade at a discount from net asset value or at premiums that are unsustainable over the long term are separate and distinct from the risk that our net asset value will decrease. At times, our shares of common stock have traded at a premium to net asset value and at times our shares of common stock have traded at a discount to the net assets attributable to those shares.

The following table sets forth the range of high and low closing sales prices for our Common Stock for the periods indicated and has been adjusted for the 3 for 1 forward stock split which was effective September 19, 2012:

DIVIDENDS

Prior to the Company’s election to operate so as to qualify to be taxed as an RIC under Subchapter M of the Code, the Company did not historically pay cash dividends. Our quarterly dividends, if any, are determined by our Board of Directors. An estimate of our annual taxable income available for distribution to stockholders and the amount of taxable income carried over from the prior year for distribution in the current year is considered when declaring dividends. We cannot assure stockholders that they will receive any dividends and distributions or dividends and distributions at a particular level. No dividends have been declared between the fiscal years ended December 31, 2006 to December 31, 2013.

Tax characteristics of all dividends are reported to stockholders on Form 1099 after the end of the calendar year.

We have elected to be taxed as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. In order to maintain favorable RIC tax treatment, we must distribute annually to our stockholders at least 90% of our ordinary income and realized net short-term capital gains in excess of realized net long-term capital losses, if any, out of the assets legally available for distribution. In order to avoid certain excise taxes imposed on RICs, we must distribute during each calendar year an amount at least equal to the sum of:

98% of our ordinary income for the calendar year

98% of our capital gains in excess of capital losses for the one-year period ending October 31; and

any ordinary income and net capital gains for preceding years that were not distributed during such years.

These restrictions are collectively referred to as the Excise Tax Avoidance Requirement. W e may, at our discretion, carry forward taxable income in excess of calendar year distributions and pay a 4% excise tax on this income. If we choose to do so, all else equal, this would increase expenses and reduce the amounts available to be distributed to our stockholders. We will accrue excise tax on estimated taxable income as required. In addition, although we currently intend to distribute realized net capital gains (i.e., net long-term capital gains in excess of short-term capital losses), if any, at least annually, out of the assets legally available for such distributions, we may in the future decide to retain such capital gains for investment.

We may not be able to achieve operating results that will enable us to make dividends and distributions at a specific level or to increase the amount of these dividends and distributions over time. We may also be limited in our ability to make dividends and distributions due to the asset coverage test applicable to us as a BDC under the 1940 Act. Additionally, if we do not distribute a certain percentage of our income annually, we will suffer adverse tax consequences, including possible loss of RIC tax treatment. In accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and tax regulations, we may include in income certain amounts that we have not yet received in cash, such as accrued dividends and payment-in-kind interest, which represents contractual interest added to the loan balance that becomes due at the end of the loan term. Since we may recognize income before or without receiving cash representing such income, we may have difficulty meeting the requirement to distribute at least 90% of our investment company taxable income to obtain tax benefits as a RIC and may be subject to an excise tax.

In order to satisfy the annual distribution requirement applicable to RICs, we have the ability to declare a large portion of a dividend in shares of our common stock instead of in cash. As long as a portion of such dividend is paid in cash (which portion can be as low as 10% for our taxable years ending prior to 2012) and certain requirements are met, the entire distribution would be treated as a dividend for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

OPTIONS

There are no options related to the Company’s common stock currently outstanding.

SECURITIES AUTHORIZED FOR ISSUANCE UNDER EQUITY COMPENSATION PLANS

On November 25, 2008, the board of directors terminated the 1997 Stock Option Plan, the 2004 Stock Option Plan, and the Shared Savings Plan and a Profit Sharing Plan enacted in 2006, each of which is no longer used by the Company and none of which have any outstanding obligations.

On November 25, 2008, the board of directors adopted the Small Cap Strategies, Inc. 2008 Stock Option Plan which designated 9,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to be available for issuance to officers, directors, employees and consultants. In January 2009, 8,741 shares were issued to consultants pursuant to consulting agreements, leaving a balance of 259 shares available. No options are outstanding as of December 31, 2012.

The following table summarizes certain information as of December 31, 2012, with respect to compensation plans (including individual compensation arrangements) under which our common stock is authorized for issuance:

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES AND CAPITAL EXPENDITURES

At December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, the Company had current assets of $218,792 and $215,699; current liabilities of $350,718 and $245,408; a working capital deficit of $131,926 and $29,709. The Company incurred a net loss from operations of $958,549 during the year ended December 31, 2013. The Company’s only sources of cash flow have been from investments in the Company’s common stock, borrowing on the company’s line of credit, issuances of convertible notes, management fees, and loans from its CEO.

The financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2012, 2012 AND 2010

REVENUES

During the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, we had revenues as follows.


	2013	2012	2011

Investment Income:
From controlled investments:
Management fees	$ 136,075	$ 105,000	$ 88,500
Interest	8,069	987	-
Dividends	-	-	-
Total revenues	144,144	105,987	88,500

Revenues in 2013, 2012 and 2011 were primarily derived from management fees from our portfolio companies. We expect that management fees from our portfolio companies will continue to be the primary source of revenues for the Company. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, we also received interest income related to our investment in Sanguine Biosciences, Inc. (“Sanguine”). On January 14, 2013, we converted $101,249 of advances to Sanguine into an $101,249 convertible note carrying an 8% interest rate.

EXPENSES

Our annual expenses have grown from $213,097 in 2011, to $1,190,215 in 2013, primarily driven by non-cash expenses incurred in 2013 and increased marketing expenses, and are summarized as follows.


Expenses:	2013	2012	2011
Officer and employee compensation	546,480	546,480	38,005
Professional fees	263,621	292,987	50,410
Director fees	-	1,000	3,000
Rent	18,423	29,483	53,117
Office supplies and expenses	22,125	9,807	19,115
Other general and administrative expense	187,239	86,271	49,450
Interest expense	152,327	193	-
Total expenses	1,190,215	966,221	213,097

Professional fees decreased by $29,366 in 2013 from 2012 due primarily to a decrease in non-cash consulting fees and legal fees, partially offset by an increase in investor and public relations fees. Professional fees increased by $242,577 in 2012 from 2011 due primarily to an increase in non-cash consulting fees. Other contributors to the increase in professional fees in 2012 include increased legal fees, investor and public relations fees and video production expense, partially offset by a decline in accounting fees. Professional fees increased by $24,280 in 2011 from 2010 due to increased consulting fees, partially offset by a decline in audit fees and accounting fees. We expect our cash professional fees to grow as our portfolio expands and our non-cash professional fees to decline as we recognize the prepaid expenses related to the CEO share transfers referenced in Note 6.

Rent expense decreased $11,060 in 2013 compared to 2012, after a decline of $23,634 in 2012. The decrease in 2013 represents the move to our new headquarters in 2013. The decrease in 2012 represents consolidation of INVENT office space after one of our portfolio companies, Sanguine Biosciences, Inc. moved into a new laboratory and out from our Bay Street offices.

Office supplies increased $12,318 in 2013 from 2012 due to continued maturation of our portfolio companies and the move into new office space. After a $17,776 increase in 2011 to facilitate the growth of our portfolio, office supplies and expenses declined $9,308 in 2012 compared to 2011. As our portfolio companies mature and grow their management teams, we may require additional office supplies to support this growth.

Other general and administrative expense has grown each year since 2010. The increase in 2013 is primarily due to increased amortization expense from the acquisition of the GGAA assets in 2012, and an increase in marketing expenses, partially offset by declines in our transfer and registered agent fees.

NET REALIZED AND UNREALIZED GAIN (LOSS)

Net realized and unrealized gain (loss) for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 is as follows:


Net realized and unrealized gains (losses):	2013	2012	2011
Net realized loss on investments, net of income taxes of none	-	-	(393)

Change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments, net of deferred tax of none	(777,387)	(1,351,847)	2,783,297
Net realized and unrealized gains (losses)	(777,387)	(1,351,847)	2,782,904

Realized and unrealized gains and losses are a function of the value of investments, either at the end of the year if still held, or when sold. The $777,387 of unrealized depreciation in 2013 is due to a reduction in our carrying value of Clowd, Inc. (“Clowd”), along with an increase in our cost basis of our portfolio companies which has the effect of reducing our fair market value adjustment, as discussed in more detail below.

In the quarter ended December 31, 2013, the Company recorded a $743,188 reduction in the carrying value of Clowd. This write down was the result of a merger between Clowd and Bar.PM whereby the surviving entity was valued at $1,486,375 in which the Company owned a 50% equity interest.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

There are several new accounting pronouncements issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) which are not yet effective. Each of these pronouncements, as applicable, has been or will be adopted by the Company. Management does not believe any of these accounting pronouncements has had or will have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or operating results. See Note 3 to the financial statements.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and revenues and expenses during the period reported. On an ongoing basis, our management evaluates its estimates and assumptions, which are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Changes in our estimates and assumptions could materially impact our results of operations and financial condition.

The SEC issued Financial Reporting Release No. 60, “Cautionary Advice Regarding Disclosure about Critical Accounting Policies” (“FRR 60”), suggesting companies provide additional disclosure and commentary on their most critical accounting policies. In FRR 60, the SEC defined the most critical accounting policies as the ones that are most important to the portrayal of a company’s financial condition and operating results, and require management to make its most difficult and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates of matters that are inherently uncertain. Based on this definition our most critical accounting policy is the valuation of our investments. The methods, estimates and judgments we use in applying this accounting policy has a significant impact on the results we report in our financial statements.

As a BDC, we are regulated by the 1940 Act. Section 2(a)(41) defines Value as (i) the market price for those securities for which a market quotation is readily available and (ii) for all other securities and assets, fair value is determined in good faith by the Board of Directors (“BOD”). We expect that few, if any, of our portfolio companies will have market quotations, and as such, we expect to rely on market transactions involving our portfolio companies and the fair value determined in good faith by our BOD for the valuation of our portfolio companies. Prior to this conversion, only marketable debt and equity securities and certain derivative securities were required to be carried at market value.

Portfolio assets for which market prices are available are valued at those prices. Securities that are traded in the over-the-counter market or on a stock exchange generally will be valued at the prevailing bid price on the valuation date. However, most of the Company’s current investments were acquired in privately negotiated transactions and may have no readily determinable market values. These securities are carried at fair value as determined by the BOD and outside professionals as necessary under the Company’s valuation policy. Currently, the valuation policy provides for management’s review of the management teams, financial conditions, and products and services of the portfolio companies. In situations that warrant such an evaluation, an independent business valuation may be obtained.

TABULAR DISCLOSURE OF CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

Not applicable.

ITEM 7A: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices. We are primarily exposed to equity price risk. The following is a discussion of our equity price risk.

Equity price risk arises from exposure to securities that represent an ownership interest in our portfolio companies. The value of our equity securities and our other investments are based on our Board of Directors' good faith determination of their fair value (which is primarily based on our valuation methods discussed in Critical Accounting Policies above). Market prices of common equity securities, in general, are subject to fluctuations, which could cause the amount to be realized upon sale or exercise of the instruments to differ significantly from the current reported value. The fluctuations may result from perceived changes in the underlying economic characteristics of our portfolio companies, the relative price of alternative investments, general market conditions and supply and demand imbalances for a particular security.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Board of Directors

Invent Ventures, Inc.

Las Vegas, Nevada

We have audited the accompanying Statements of Net Assets of Invent Ventures, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, including the schedule of investments, the related statements of operations, cash flows, changes in net assets and financial highlights for each of the years in the three year period ended December 31, 2013. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Invent Ventures, Inc. as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of its operations, its cash flows and changes in Net Assets and its financial highlights for the above referenced period in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that Invent Ventures, Inc. will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company will need to raise capital through sales of Company stock to provide sufficient cash flow to fund the Company’s operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

At December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, the Company had current assets of $218,792 and $224,299; current liabilities of $350,718 and $245,408; a working capital deficit of $131,926 and $29,709. The Company incurred a net loss from operations of $861,074 during the year ended December 31, 2013. The Company’s only sources of cash flow have been from investments in the Company’s common stock, borrowing on the company’s line of credit, issuances of convertible notes, management fees, and loans from its CEO.

The financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

NOTE 3:

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

As noted above, when the Company filed its election to be regulated pursuant to the 1940 Act, it resulted in a change in accounting principle. Accordingly, the financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 have been restated as if the Company was operating as a BDC for all periods presented. Pursuant to Regulation S-X, Rule 6, the Company will operate on a non-consolidated basis.

F-9

Management Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity date of three months or less to be cash equivalents. None of the Company’s cash is restricted.

Net Increase (Decrease) in Net Assets (Liabilities) from Operations Per Share (Earnings (Loss) per Share)

The Company is required to report both basic earnings per share, which is based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, and diluted earnings per share, which is based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding plus all potentially dilutive shares outstanding. At December 31, 2012, there were 1,000,000 warrants outstanding at an exercise price of $0.33. These warrants may only be exercised if certain performance goals are attained. The Company has not placed a value on these warrants as the performance requirements are yet to be reached. There were no potentially dilutive shares outstanding at December 31, 2011 and 2010.

Valuation of Investments (as an Investment Company)

Portfolio assets for which market prices are available are valued at those prices. Securities that are traded in the over-the-counter market or on a stock exchange generally will be valued at the prevailing bid price on the valuation date. However, some of the Company’s current investments were acquired in privately negotiated transactions and may have no readily determinable market values. These securities are carried at fair value as determined by the BOD and outside professionals as necessary under the Company’s valuation policy. Currently, the valuation policy provides for management’s review of the management team, financial conditions, and products and services of the portfolio company. In situations that warrant such an evaluation, an independent business valuation may be obtained.

Income Taxes

As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company had no accrued interest or penalties relating to any tax obligations. The Company currently has no federal or state examinations in progress, nor has it had any federal or state tax examinations since its inception. The last three years of the Company's tax returns are subject to federal and state tax examination.

F-10

Comprehensive Income

All items required to be recognized under accounting standards as components of comprehensive income are required to be reported in a financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements. Standards require that an enterprise (a) classify items of other comprehensive income by their nature in financial statements and (b) display the accumulated balance of other comprehensive income separately in the equity section of the balance sheet for all periods presented. The Company’s comprehensive income (loss) does not differ from its reported net income (loss).

As an investment company, the Company must report changes in the fair value of its investments outside of its operating income on its statement of operations and reflect the accumulated appreciation or depreciation in the fair value of its investments as a separate component of its stockholders’ deficit. This treatment is similar to the treatment discussed above.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments is required when it is practicable to estimate that value. The carrying amounts of the Company’s cash, marketable equity securities, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their estimated fair value due to the short-term maturities of these financial instruments and because related interest rates offered to the Company approximate current rates.

Fixed Assets

Fixed assets are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is recorded using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets (generally five and seven years). The carrying amount of all long-lived assets is evaluated periodically to determine if adjustment to the depreciation and amortization period or the unamortized balance is warranted. Based upon its most recent analysis, the Company believes that no impairment of property and equipment exists at December 31, 2012 and 2011. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations when incurred. Betterments and renewals are capitalized. When property and equipment are sold or otherwise disposed of, the asset account and related accumulated depreciation account are relieved, and any gain or loss is included in operations.

Stock Based Compensation

The compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions (including the cost of all employee stock options) is required to be recognized in the financial statements. That cost will be measured based on the estimated fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. The Company’s financial statements reflect an expense for all share-based compensation arrangements granted on or after January 1, 2006 and for any such arrangements that are modified, cancelled or repurchased after that date, based on the grant-date estimated fair value.

At December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011 there are no options outstanding. As of December 31, 2010 and 2009 there were options outstanding for 434 shares from the 1997 Plan, which expired in 2011.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Cash is maintained at financial institutions. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insures accounts at each institution for up to $250,000. At times, cash balances may exceed the FDIC insurance limit of $250,000.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

There are several new accounting pronouncements issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") which are not yet effective. Each of these pronouncements, as applicable, has been or will be adopted by the Company. In the opinion of Management, none of these pronouncements is expected to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

NOTE 4:

INVESTMENTS AND VALUATION

The Company’s investment securities are summarized as follows at December 31, 2013 and 2012, the valuation of which are primarily based on Level 3 inputs:


		2013		2012

Cost	$	506,387	$	452,467
Unrealized appreciation (depreciation)		9,123,238		9,900,626
Fair market value	$	9,629,626	$	10,353,093

We follow Accounting Standards Codification (‘‘ASC’’) Topic 820 — Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“Topic 820”) for measuring the fair value of portfolio investments. Fair value is the price that would be received in the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Where available, fair value is based on observable market prices or parameters, or derived from such prices or parameters. Where observable prices or inputs are not available, valuation models are applied. These valuation models involve a degree of management estimation and judgment, the degree of which is dependent on the price transparency for the instruments or market and the instruments’ complexity.

Our fair value analysis includes an analysis of recent capital transactions with unrelated investors, the future cash flow projections of our investments, value of intellectual property and other proprietary assets. Financial investments recorded at fair value in the Company’s financial statements are categorized for disclosure purposes based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their value. The valuation hierarchical levels are based upon the transparency of the inputs to the valuation of the investment as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1:

Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical financial instruments at the measurement date.

Level 2:

Inputs include quoted prices for similar financial instruments in active markets and inputs that are observable for the financial instruments, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs also include inputs, other than quoted prices, that are observable for the asset or liability being valued, either directly or indirectly.

Level 3:

Inputs include unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. The inputs into the determination of fair value are based upon the best information available and require management judgment.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, an investment’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and we consider factors specific to the investment.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized in the following tables according to FASB ASC 820 pricing levels.

F-12

December 31, 2012
Assets:
Portfolio company securities	$10,353,093	$ -		$10,353,093

The following section describes the types of inputs we use for level 3 within the fair value hierarchy in which the investment is categorized, and the valuation techniques we use to measure the fair value of our investments.

Level 3 inputs include the terms of recent capital transactions with unaffiliated investors, financial statement metrics of comparable companies, nonfinancial-statement metrics of comparable companies, projected cash flows of our investments, applicable discount rates, the value of developed intellectual property, the value of the domain name and other proprietary assets.

Topic 820 establishes a framework for measuring fair value that includes three distinct valuation techniques as follows: (i) the Market Approach, (ii) the Income Approach; and (iii) the Asset Approach. There is no single standard for determining fair value in good faith under any of these approaches, and as a result, determining fair value requires judgment be applied to the facts and circumstances of each of our portfolio investments. Topic 820 notes that in some cases the use of multiple valuation techniques will be appropriate. Under such circumstances, Topic 820 recommends that the results of the various techniques be evaluated and weighted appropriately. For investments where multiple valuation techniques are used to measure fair value, management evaluates and weights the results, considering the reasonableness of the range indicated by those results.

Following are descriptions of each technique and how we apply them to our portfolio companies.

Market Approach. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving our portfolio companies, or identical or comparable assets or liabilities. Common applications of this approach include our use of the valuation implied by market transactions in our portfolio companies by unaffiliated investors and market multiples derived from a set of comparable companies. When determining fair value under the Market Approach, we often draw from the terms of recent capital transactions with unaffiliated investors.

Income Approach. The income approach incorporates estimates of future cash flows or earnings and discounts them to a single present value based on current market expectations. Under the Income Approach we apply two discounted cash flow (“DCF”) methods to derive estimates of fair value.

Asset Approach. The asset approach is based on the fair market value of the company’s assets less the fair market value of the company’s liabilities. When applying this approach, we consider the cost to a market participant to acquire or construct a substitute asset of comparable utility, adjusted for obsolescence, the aggregate amount of capital invested by INVENT in such company, and the current fair market value of the company’s assets and liabilities.

As an investment company, the Company will invest in illiquid securities including equity securities of private companies. The structure of each equity security is specifically negotiated to enable the Company to protect its investment and maximize its returns. The Company’s investments are generally subject to some restrictions on resale and generally have no established trading market.

F-13

We expect that the majority of our investments will continue to be recorded at fair value based on Level 2 and Level 3 inputs and values determined in good faith by our Board of Directors utilizing the input of our management and advisory board. With respect to investments for which market quotations are not readily available, we undertake a disciplined valuation process on a quarterly basis, which is detailed below.

Management considers which fair value techniques are applicable based on the type of investment being valued. If applying the asset approach, our management team aggregates the costs spent to develop the business, evaluates the value of the company’s assets net of its liabilities, and estimates the current cost to replicate such technology by another party. Under the market approach, our management team considers all transactions involving the portfolio company, as well as examines the current valuation levels of comparable investments. When applying the income approach, our management team develops cash flow forecasts and utilizes multiple discounted cash flow valuation techniques to approximate fair value. Management evaluates and weights the resulting valuations, considering the reasonableness of the range indicated by those results.

Preliminary valuation conclusions are discussed with the BOD and subsequently discussed with members of our advisory board, as required.

The BOD considers the proposed valuations and determines the value of our portfolio companies in good faith based on the input of our management team and our advisory board.

We will record unrealized depreciation on investments when we believe that an investment has decreased in value or if the collection of a loan is doubtful. Conversely, we will record unrealized appreciation if we believe that the underlying portfolio company has appreciated in value and, therefore, our investment has also appreciated in value, where appropriate.

At December 31, 2012, 100% of our investments in portfolio companies represented investments recorded at fair value, as determined by our BOD. Due to the inherent uncertainty in determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of our investments determined in good faith by our Board of Directors may differ significantly from the value that would have been used had a ready market existed for such investments, and the differences could be material. Additionally, changes in the market environment and other events that may occur over the life of the investments may cause the gains or losses ultimately realized on these investments to be different than the valuations currently assigned.

NOTE 7:

INCOME TAXES

We have elected to be taxed as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code and currently qualify, and intend to continue to qualify each year, as a RIC under the Code. In order to qualify as a RIC, we are required to meet certain income and asset diversification tests, and distribute annually at least 90% of investment company taxable income, as defined by the Code, to our stockholders. To avoid federal excise taxes, we must distribute annually at least 98% of our income from the current year (both ordinary income and net capital gains) and any undistributed ordinary income and net capital gains from the preceding years. We may, at our discretion, carry forward taxable income in excess of calendar year distributions and pay a 4% excise tax on this income. If we choose to do so, all other things being equal, this would increase expenses and reduce the amount available to be distributed to our stockholders. We will accrue excise tax on estimated excess taxable income as required.

Taxable income, as defined by the Code, includes the Company’s taxable interest, dividend and fee income, as well as taxable net capital gains. Taxable income generally differs from net income for financial reporting purposes due to temporary and permanent differences in the recognition of income and expenses, and generally excludes net unrealized appreciation or depreciation, as gains or losses are not included in taxable income until they are realized.

In the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company recorded two income tax adjustments to reflect the reversal of a deferred tax liability associated with unrealized gains generated by increases in value of our portfolio companies in periods prior to our RIC election.

ITEM 9A(T): CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2013 were effective.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

The management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting and for the assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 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 generally accepted accounting principles. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is supported by written policies and procedures that: (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the Company’s assets; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of the Company’s management and directors; and (3) 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.

The Company’s internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance to the Company’s management and board of directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations which may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. 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.

Management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013. In making this assessment, management used the framework set forth in the report entitled “Internal Control-Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, or (“COSO”). The COSO framework summarizes each of the components of a company’s internal control system, including (i) the control environment, (ii) risk assessment, (iii) control activities, (iv) information and communication, and (v) monitoring. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2013. Management concluded that the Company’s internal control policies were effective.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permits us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report, that has materially affected, or is reasonable likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

ITEM 13:

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

On November 24, 2008, the Company amended its Letter of Intent dated October 1, 2008, in which the Company agreed to acquire working interests in certain oil and gas properties and two operating companies from a shareholder, Xtreme Oil & Gas, Inc. The parties agreed to extend the closing date until March 30, 2009, in exchange for issuance of 50,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to Xtreme as an extension fee. The total purchase price was to be reduced by the extension fee. The shares were originally valued at $1,275,000, the amount at which the stock was trading on the date of the amendment and the total was initially expensed as an extension fee. On April 6, 2009, the Company and Xtreme agreed to rescind the extension agreement and the 50,000 shares were returned to the Company and cancelled. The LOI expired under its original terms on December 31, 2008, therefore the extension fee is not reflected in the financial statements. Xtreme owned 32.66% of the Company's common stock as of December 31, 2009. On May 10, 2010, Xtreme entered into a stock purchase agreement with the Company's CEO and the Company's CEO acquired the 8,000 shares previously owned by Xtreme.

At December 31, 2009, the Company had received advances from Xtreme and owed $40,000, which was included in due to related parties. As a part of the transaction discussed above, the Company's CEO acquired the obligation owed to Xtreme.

On February 12, 2011 the Company’s Board of Directors were notified by Management that the Company would exercise its repurchase option to purchase 2,700,000 shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to its Share Purchase Agreement and Employment Agreement with a Vineet Jindal, a previous officer of the Company. Per the terms of the agreement, INVENT repurchased 600,000 shares at Mr. Jindal’s cost value and then cancelled those shares. The Company transferred its right to repurchase the remaining 2,100,000 to employees of INVENT, who repurchased these shares at Mr. Jindal’s original cost value.

At December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company owed its CEO $120,990 and $311,862, respectively, for loans, accrued compensation and expense reimbursements, which is included in amounts due to related parties. The amount owed at December 31, 2010 included a non-interest bearing convertible note in the amount of $133,807 which was convertible at $0.50 per share or NAV per share, whichever was greater. The convertible note was converted at a price of $1.00 per share at March 30, 2011.

Officer’s compensation and director’s fees related to the services provided by Bryce Knight, President and Director of the Company, are paid directly to Knight, Inc. (formerly Knight Enterprises, Inc.), a Nevada corporation 100% owned by Bryce Knight.

On February 23, 2012 and April 11, 2012, Knight, Inc., wholly owned by Bryce Knight, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, transferred 150,000 and 100,000 shares, respectively, to consultants for services to be rendered for the Company. These shares were valued at $1.00 per share representing the price at which shares were sold during the period. The cost is being amortized over the estimated life of the consulting agreements, generally determined to be one year except for one consultant where the cost is being amortized over 33 months.

INVENT currently collects $10,500 per month from VIRURL for engineering, financial and managerial assistance provided by the Company to VIRURL.

ITEM 14: PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES
