Summary

As used in this prospectus, unless the context otherwise requires, “we”, “us”, “our”, the “Company” or “Gilder” refers to Gilder Enterprises, Inc. All dollar amounts in this prospectus are in U.S. dollars unless otherwise stated. The following summary is not complete and does not contain all of the information that may be important to you. You should read the entire prospectus before making an investment decision to purchase our common shares.

Gilder Enterprises, Inc.

We were incorporated on April 25, 2002 under the laws of the State of Nevada. Our principal offices are located at 3639 Garibaldi Drive, North Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada V7H 2W2. Our telephone number is (604) 924-8180.

We own 51% of Nex Connectivity Solutions Inc. (“Nex Connectivity Solutions”), a Canadian federal corporation incorporated on March 25, 2003. We own the majority interest in Nex Connectivity Solutions together with our joint venture partner, 5G Wireless Communications Pte. Ltd. (“5G Wireless”), a Singapore company that owns the remaining 49% interest in Nex Connectivity Solutions. Nex Connectivity Solutions was incorporated in order that we could carry out a joint venture with 5G Wireless for the design, building, owning and operation of specialized Internet access networks, initially serving the needs of business travelers.

Nex Connectivity Solutions has secured its initial contract for the installation and operation of a high-speed Internet access network at the Empire Landmark Hotel, a hotel property in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. The Empire Landmark Hotel is owned and operated by Asia Standard Hotel (Holdings) Limited (“ASHH”), based in Hong Kong.

This initial contract will require Nex Connectivity Solutions to complete the installation of the Internet access network at its cost and will provide revenues on a revenue-sharing basis with the hotel property owner based on revenues generated from hotel customer use of the Internet access network. Nex Connectivity Solutions plans to use this initial contract as an initial step into the Internet access network operations business in the Vancouver area. If Nex Connectivity Solutions is successful in securing additional contracts for Internet access network operations in the Vancouver area, then our business plan is to expand the business into new geographical areas and into new target markets, such as convention centers and institutions.

Our business operations and the operations of Nex Connectivity Solutions are in the start-up phase. Neither we nor Nex Connectivity Solutions have earned any revenues to date. The achievement of revenues will be initially based on the successful completion of the initial contract secured by Nex Connectivity Solutions. We plan to use revenues from this initial project to fund further expansion. However, there is no assurance that revenues from this initial project will be sufficient to pursue further Internet access network installations without additional financing.

Our financial information as of February 29, 2004 and May 31, 2003 is summarized below:

Risk Factors

An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described below and the other information in this prospectus before investing in our common stock. If any of the following risks occur, our business, operating results and financial condition could be seriously harmed. The trading price of our common stock could decline due to any of these risks, and you may lose all or part of your investment.

Risks Related To Our Financial Condition And Business Model

If We Do Not Successfully Complete Our Initial Internet Access Network Installation For The Empire Landmark Hotel Property In Vancouver, British Columbia, Then Our Business May Fail.

We have secured a contract to install and operate an Internet access network at the Empire Landmark Hotel property in Vancouver, British Columbia. This contract will be our first Internet access network installation and operation. The completion of this contract will consume most of our available financial resources. We will earn revenues on a revenue sharing basis with the hotel property owner that will be based on Internet usage. We will own this network and accordingly, we will not be paid any upfront purchase price or installation fee by the hotel property owner. Accordingly our ability to achieve revenues and a return on our investment on this installation contract will be dependent both on our ability to complete the installation and set up of the Internet access network and to generate and maintain usage of the Internet access network by hotel guests at the hotel property. If we are not successful at earning revenues or if revenues are less than anticipated, we may not have sufficient financial resources to continue with other network installations. In this event, we may not be able to continue business operations and our business may fail.

If We Do Not Achieve Additional Financing Or Significant Revenues From Operations, Then Our Business May Fail.

We had working capital of $31,197 as of February 29, 2004. Our plan of operations calls for us to spend approximately $156,000 to $176,000 over the next twelve-month period in pursuing our plan of operations to establish our Internet access network installation business. In order to achieve our plan of operations, we will require additional financing. The amount of financing will be dependent in part on the amount of revenues that we are able to generate from our initial hotel Internet access networks. There is no assurance that we will be able to achieve the necessary additional financing that will be sufficient for us to carry out our plan of operations for the next twelve months. We anticipate that we will not be able to achieve conventional debt financing due to the start up nature of our business and our lack of tangible assets. Accordingly, we anticipate that any additional funds will be raised through equity financings by way of additional sales of our common stock and/or securities that are convertible into shares of our common stock. There can be no assurance that additional financings will be available on terms acceptable to us, or at all. If we are not successful in achieving additional financing, then we may not be able to continue our business operations and our business may fail.

If We Are Required To Complete Additional Equity Financings, Then Our Existing Shareholders May Experience Dilution.

We anticipate that any additional financing that we obtain will be in the form of equity financings due to the start up nature of our business and our current inability to obtain conventional debt financing. Equity financings would involve the sales of our common stock and/or sales of securities that are convertible or exercisable into shares of our common stock, such as share purchase warrants or convertible loans. There is no assurance that we will be able to complete equity financings at prices that are not dilutive to our existing shareholders. The price of further equity offerings will be dependent on a number of factors, including our initial success in establishing our business operations. Accordingly, any additional financings may be on terms that are dilutive or potentially dilutive to our current shareholders.

If We Do Not Achieve Anticipated Revenues Or If Our Expenses Are Greater Than Anticipated, Then We Will Have To Scale Back Our Plan Of Operations.

We currently do not have sufficient financial resources to carry out our plan of operations over the next twelve months. Our plan of operations is predicated on our ability to earn revenues from our initial hotel Internet access networks. If revenues from our initial installations and operations are less than anticipated, then we will have

3

less funds with which to pursue our plan of operations. In addition, there is a risk that the anticipated expenses of completing installations of hotel Internet access networks will be greater than we have anticipated. In either of these cases, we will be forced to scale back our plan of operations to conform our expenditures to our available funds, unless we are able to achieve additional financing. If we are forced to scale back our operations, there is no assurance that we will be able to complete a sufficient number of hotel Internet access network installations in order for us to achieve sufficient revenues and cash flows to continue our business operations. In this event, our business may fail.

As We Are A Start Up Business, There Is No Assurance That Our Business Will Succeed.

We formed our joint venture with 5G Wireless in May 2003. Nex Connectivity Solutions, our joint venture company, secured its first contract for a hotel Internet access network installation in February 2004. This contract has not been completed to date. Accordingly, we are a start up company with no operating history upon which an investor may complete an evaluation of our prospects. Our prospects must be considered in light of the substantial risks, expenses and difficulties typically encountered by new start up businesses. Significant ongoing risks include our ability to:

There is no assurance that we will be able to successfully address these risks. Our failure to address these risks will adversely impact on our operating results and our financial condition and may cause our business to fail.

As There Is Substantial Doubt About Our Ability To Continue As A Going Concern, There Is No Assurance That Our Business Will Not Fail.

Our consolidated financial statements included with this prospectus have been prepared assuming we will continue as a going concern. Our independent auditors have made reference to the substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern in their independent auditors’ report on our audited financial statements for the year ended May 31, 2003. As discussed in the notes to our audited financial statements, we were recently incorporated, we have no established sources of revenue and we have accumulated operating losses of $64,936 since our inception. Our continuation is dependent upon our achieving a profitable level of operations as well as obtaining further long-term financing. These factors raise substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

As Our Plan Of Operations Calls For The Continued Expansion Of Our Business, We Anticipate That We Will Incur Ongoing Losses For The Foreseeable Future.

We will be required to undertake significant expenses in connection with the installation, commissioning and operation of our initial hotel Internet access networks. Our network contracts are anticipated to be structured on a revenue sharing basis whereby we will install the network at our expense, the networks will be owned by us,

4

and we will share revenues with hotel property owners. We will achieve revenues on an ongoing basis from Internet usage, rather than being paid upfront upon completion of each installation. Accordingly, we anticipate that we will initially incur operating losses. Further, our business plan calls for continued expansion through the installation of additional hotel Internet access networks. Due to the delay of revenues resulting from our revenue sharing arrangements and our continued planned expansion, we anticipate that we will continue to incur operating losses in the foreseeable future.

As We Own A 51% Interest In Nex Connectivity Solutions, Our Results Of Operations Will Only Reflect 51% Of Any Net Income Of Nex Connectivity Solutions.

Our Internet access network business will be carried out by Nex Connectivity Solutions. We own a 51% interest in Nex Connectivity Solutions and our joint venture partner, 5G Wireless, owns a 49% interest. Our operating results will reflect the consolidation of Nex Connectivity Solutions as we are the majority shareholder and we have the right to control Nex Connectivity Solutions. However, our operating results will only reflect 51% of any net income of Nex Connectivity Solutions due to the minority interest held by 5G Wireless.

If The Cost Of New Technology Developments Increases Our Cost Of Doing Business, Then Our Operating Results And Financial Condition May Be Adversely Impacted.

We plan to design and offer technology solutions to hotel property owners that incorporation state-of-the-art technology. We believe this will be necessary in order to satisfy the needs of business travelers at hotel properties and to maintain a competitive advantage. However, incorporating the latest technological developments into our technology solutions may cause the installation costs of our hotel Internet access networks to increase. If we are unable to achieve additional revenues to cover these increased costs, then our operating results and financial condition may be adversely affected.

If We Are Unable To Attract And Retain Qualified Personnel, Then Our Operating Results And Financial Condition May Be Adversely Impacted.

Our success will depend upon the continued efforts of our senior management and our technical, marketing and sales personnel. We will require personnel who are knowledgeable in the field of Internet access networks and who have experience in carrying out the design, installation and operation of Internet access networks. We anticipate that there will be high demand in the industry for persons with these skills. Accordingly, we anticipate that the process of hiring employees with the combination of skills and attributes necessary for us to carry out our business strategy will be extremely competitive and time consuming. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain or integrate the required personnel or to successfully identify and train the required personnel. In addition, employees that we retain who voluntary terminate their employment with us at any time may have a material adverse effect on our business. The loss of the services of our key personnel or, our inability to attract additional qualified personnel, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

As Our Joint Venture Partner, 5G Wireless Is To Provide Specialized Expertise And Know-How Regarding Internet Access Network Installations And Operations, There Is No Assurance That We Will Be Able To Carry Out Our Plan Of Operations If 5G Wireless Is Unable To Provide The Necessary Technical Expertise And Personnel.

Under the terms of our joint venture agreement with 5G Wireless, 5G Wireless is to provide specialized expertise and know-how in the area of Internet access network installations and operations to the joint venture. Initially, 5G Wireless will provide the services of Mr. Dennis Tan, chief technical manager of Nex Connectivity Solutions, and Mr. Hsien Wong, user support manager of Nex Connectivity Solutions. In the event of the departure of either Mr. Tan or Mr. Wong from Nex Connectivity Solutions for any reason or the inability of 5G Wireless to provide further technical expertise or support, then there is a risk that we will not be able to carry out our plan of operations or achieve revenue with the result that our business, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.

5

If The Technology Solutions That We Hope To Incorporate In Our Internet Access Networks Become Obsolete, Then Our Business, Financial Condition And Operating Results May Suffer.

The Internet access networks will be subject to obsolescence due to changing technologies, changing industry standards, changing customer needs and new software introductions. If our installed Internet access networks become obsolete or if we fail to adapt to new customer needs, then we may not reach our expected level of revenue and our business, financial condition and results of operations will suffer.

Interruptions In Internet Access Caused By Telecommunications Carriers And Other Suppliers May Adversely Impact On Our Ability To Provide Internet Service To Our Customers.

We will be relying on local telecommunications and other companies to provide the telecommunications links that will enable hotel guests to access the Internet through our Internet access networks. Accordingly, disruptions or capacity constraints in these telecommunication services will result in our customers not being able to access the Internet through our Internet access networks. We will have no means of remedying these problems or replacing these services on a timely basis or at all in the event of a disruption or capacity problem. Our operations and services will also be dependent on the extent to which the telecommunications services of the third party suppliers are protected from damage and telecommunication failures and similar events, operational disruptions, natural disasters, power loss or for any other reasons. Any accident, incident, system failure or discontinuation of operations involving a third party supplier will cause interruptions to our Internet service operations which could have a material adverse effect on our ability to provide Internet access services to our customers and, in turn, on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

If We Are Unable To Maintain The Security Of Our Internet Access Networks, Our Business, Financial Condition And Result Of Operations May Be Adversely Affected.

Despite security measures that we plan to implement, our Internet access network infrastructure may be vulnerable to computer viruses, hacking or other similar disruptive problems caused by customers, other Internet users, other connected Internet sites and interconnecting telecommunications networks. Such problems caused by third parties could lead to interruptions, delays, or cessation in service to our customers. Inappropriate use of the Internet by third parties could also potentially jeopardize the security of confidential information stored in our computer systems or those of our customers. These security problems could cause us to lose customers or deter potential hotel guests from becoming customers. Further, we anticipate that our customers will be using our Internet access services to complete transactions of a commercial nature. Any network malfunction or security breach could cause such transactions to be delayed, not completed at all, or completed with compromised security. There can be no assurance that customers or others will not assert claims of liability against us as a result of any failure or security breach. Further, until more comprehensive security technologies are developed, security and privacy concerns of potential customers may inhibit the growth of our customer base and revenues. In view of these factors, our inability to maintain the security of our networks could result in a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

If The Third Party Equipment Hosting Operators That We Rely Upon Suffer Service Problems, Our Business Could Be Adversely Affected.

Our plan is to locate critical server equipment dedicated to our Internet access services, including our network operations centers, in an equipment hosting facility operated by an independent third party. In this event, we will be relying on the equipment hosting operator to provide security services and to provide redundant or back up equipment and telecommunications facilities. However, despite these precautions, our operations will be subject to disruptions in service or other unanticipated problems suffered by the equipment hosting operator. Disruptions in our Internet access services could result in our customers deciding to cancel or reduce the use of our services. Accordingly, any disruption of our Internet access services due to system failures by the third party equipment hosting operator could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

6

As We Plan To Purchase Commercially Available Components For Our Technology Solutions, Rather Than Develop And Own Our Own Technology, We Will Have Limited Proprietary Protection For Our Technology Solutions.

We plan to design Internet access networks using technology solutions based on commercially available hardware and software. We do not plan to develop our own software or hardware products. Accordingly, competitors will be able to purchase the same hardware and software components that we will integrate into our Internet access networks. Accordingly, there is a risk that competitors will replicate the technology solutions that we provide to our customers. Further, we will be at risk to hardware suppliers and software vendors who may increase their prices or may discontinue their operations. If software vendors from whom we have purchased software discontinue their operations, we may not be able to obtain support for the software we have installed on our networks. If prices of hardware and software components that we integrate into our technology solutions are increased, we may be forced to incur the increased expense or source different components that may not be optimal for our technology solutions. Based on these factors, the fact that we do not own the proprietary technology underlying our Internet access networks may cause our business, financial condition and results of operations to be adversely affected.

If We Are Unable To Compete With Our Competitors, Then Our Business Will Suffer.

We will face substantial competition in providing Internet access networks to hotel properties. Competition will come from a variety of competitors, including the following:

As a general rule, we expect that all of our competitors will have greater financial resources than we do due to the start-up nature of our business. Accordingly, competitors may be able to develop Internet access solutions that are technically superior to our Internet access networks and may be able to devote greater financial resources to the marketing of their services. Hotel property owners may also elect to proceed with established competitors rather than to enter into agreements with start-up companies. Due to these factors, there is a significant risk that our business will be materially and adversely impacted by competition.

The Introduction Of New Government Regulation Could Have A Material Adverse Effect On Our Business, Financial Condition And Results Of Operations.

We anticipate that we will not be subject to any direct regulation by any government agencies, although we will be required to comply with general regulations that are applicable to all businesses. We are currently not regulated by either the Canadian Radio Telephone Telecommunications Commission (the “CRTC”) in Canada or the Federal Communications Commission (the “FCC”) in the United States; however, Internet related regulatory policies are continuing to develop and it is possible that our business operations could be the subject of regulation from either the CRTC or the FCC in the future. Additionally, it is possible that additional laws and regulations may be adopted that directly impact on our business operations. Additional laws and regulations could include laws and regulations governing content, privacy, pricing, encryption standards, consumer protection, electronic commerce, taxation, copyright infringement and other intellectual property issues. Increased regulation governing the Internet or the installation and operation of Internet access networks could increase our cost of doing business and may result in a decline in Internet usage by business travelers and hotel properties. Accordingly, increased government regulation could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

If A Market For Our Common Stock Does Not Develop, Shareholders May Be Unable To Sell Their Shares.

There is currently no market for our common stock and we can provide no assurance that a market will develop. We currently plan to apply for trading of our common stock on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board upon the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. However, we can provide

7

investors with no assurance that our shares will be traded on the bulletin board or, if traded, that a public market will materialize. If our common stock is not traded on the bulletin board or if a public market for our common stock does not develop, investors may not be able to re-sell the shares of our common stock that they have purchased and may lose all of their investment.

If The Selling Shareholders Sell A Large Number Of Shares All At Once Or In Blocks, The Market Price Of Our Shares Would Most Likely Decline.

The selling shareholders are offering 3,667,500 shares of our common stock through this prospectus. Our common stock is presently not traded on any market or securities exchange, but should a market develop, shares sold at a price below the current market price at which the common stock is trading will cause that market price to decline. Moreover, the offer or sale of a large number of shares at any price may cause the market price to fall. The outstanding shares of common stock covered by this prospectus represent approximately 49% of the common shares outstanding as of the date of this prospectus.

Forward-Looking Statements

This prospectus contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. We use words such as anticipate, believe, plan, expect, future, intend and similar expressions to identify such forward-looking statements. You should not place too much reliance on these forward-looking statements. Our actual results are most likely to differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements for many reasons, including the risks faced by us described in this Risk Factors section and elsewhere in this prospectus.

Use Of Proceeds

We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the common stock offered through this prospectus by the selling shareholders.

Determination Of Offering Price

The $0.25 per share offering price of our common stock was determined based on the last sales price from our most recent private offering of common stock. There is no relationship whatsoever between this price and our assets, earnings, book value or any other objective criteria of value.

We intend to apply to the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board for the trading of our common stock upon our becoming a reporting entity under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. We intend to file a registration statement under the Exchange Act concurrently with the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. If our common stock becomes so traded and a market for the stock develops, we anticipate the actual price of sale would vary according to the selling decisions of each selling shareholder and the market for our common stock at the time of re-sale. The offering price would thus be determined by market factors and the independent decisions of the selling shareholders. The actual price of stock will be determined by market factors at the time of sale.

Dilution

The common stock to be sold by the selling shareholders is common stock that is currently issued and outstanding. Accordingly, there will be no dilution to our existing shareholders.

8

Plan Of Distribution

The selling shareholders may sell some or all of their common stock in one or more transactions, including block transactions:

The sales price to the public is fixed at $0.25 per share until such time as the shares of our common stock become traded on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board or another exchange. Although we intend to apply for trading of our common stock on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board, public trading of our common stock may never materialize. If our common stock becomes traded on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board or another exchange, then the sales price to the public will vary according to the selling decisions of each selling shareholder and the market for our stock at the time of resale. In these circumstances, the sales price to the public may be:

The shares may also be sold in compliance with the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Rule 144.

The selling shareholders may also sell their shares directly to market makers acting as agents in unsolicited brokerage transactions. Any broker or dealer participating in such transactions as agent may receive a commission from the selling shareholders, or, if they act as agent for the purchaser of such common stock, from such purchaser. The selling shareholders will likely pay the usual and customary brokerage fees for such services. If applicable, the selling shareholders may distribute shares to one or more of their partners who are unaffiliated with us. Such partners may, in turn, distribute such shares as described above.

We can provide no assurance that all or any of the common stock offered will be sold by the selling shareholders.

We are bearing all costs relating to the registration of the common stock. The selling shareholders, however, will pay any commissions or other fees payable to brokers or dealers in connection with any sale of the common stock.

The selling shareholders must comply with the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act in the offer and sale of the common stock. In particular, during such times as the selling shareholders may be deemed to be engaged in a distribution of the common stock, and therefore be considered to be an underwriter, they must comply with applicable law and may, among other things:

Committees of the Board Of Directors

We presently do not have an audit committee, compensation committee, nominating committee, an executive committee of our board of directors, stock plan committee or any other committees. However, our board of directors is considering establishing various committees by the end of the current fiscal year.

Audit Committee Financial Expert

We have no financial expert on our Board of Directors. We believe the cost related to retaining a financial expert at this time is prohibitive. Further, because of our start-up operations, we believe the services of a financial expert are not warranted.

Mr. Joseph G. Bowes, our president, secretary, treasurer and a director, has been our founder and our sole promoter since our inception. Mr. Bowes purchased 4,000,000 shares of our common stock at a price of $0.001 US per share on April 25, 2002. We entered into a management services agreement with Angus Consulting Inc., a company controlled by Mr. Joseph G. Bowes on July 1, 2002. Under the terms of the management services agreement, we have agreed to pay Angus Consulting Inc. a consulting fee of $900 per month in consideration for management and administrative services to be provided by Angus Consulting Inc. to us. These services include the services of Mr. Bowes as our sole executive officer. The management agreement is for a two year term expiring June 30, 2004. Other than this purchase of stock and the management agreement with Angus Consulting, we have not entered into any agreement with Mr. Bowes wherein we are to provide anything of value to Mr. Bowes, directly or indirectly, or whereby Mr. Bowes is to provide us with any assets, services or other consideration. We have not acquired any assets from Mr. Bowes and we do not have any agreement to purchase any assets from Mr. Bowes.

We entered into an option agreement to acquire certain mineral leases located in the Northwest Territories of Canada on June 26, 2002. We conducted a preliminary geological exploration program on this mineral property in 2002. As the geological report that we obtained on this preliminary geological exploration program did not recommend further exploration of the property, we determined to abandon this property in January 2003. Preliminary work of a similar nature was conducted on several other properties that ultimately also proved unattractive. In early 2003, we decided to abandon mineral exploration and development activities altogether and to apply our cash resources to other ventures.

We entered into our joint venture agreement with 5G Wireless on May 25, 2003. We entered into a shareholders agreement with 5G Wireless for the establishment, ownership and operation of our Internet access network business through Nex Connectivity Solutions on May 25, 2003. We attempted to secure our first Internet access network installation contract in June 2003. However, we were unsuccessful in our attempt to enter this contract. We continued our efforts to secure Internet access network installation contracts since this first attempt and we were eventually successful in securing our first Internet access network installation contract for Nex Connectivity Solutions in February 2004.

Description Of Business

OVERVIEW

Gilder Enterprises, Inc. (“We”, “Gilder” or the "Company") was incorporated on April 25, 2002, under the laws of the State of Nevada.

We own 51% of Nex Connectivity Solutions Inc. (“Nex Connectivity Solutions”), a Canadian federal corporation incorporated on March 25, 2003. We own the majority interest in Nex Connectivity Solutions together with our joint venture partner, 5G Wireless Communications Pte. Ltd. (“5G Wireless”), a Singapore company, that owns the remaining 49% interest in Nex Connectivity Solutions. Nex Connectivity Solutions was incorporated in order that we could carry out a joint venture with 5G Wireless for the design, building, owning and operation of specialized Internet access networks, initially serving the needs of business travelers. Nex Connectivity Solutions has secured its initial contract for the installation of a high-speed Internet access network at the Empire Landmark Hotel located in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Our business strategy is to use this initial installation contract as an initial step in the establishment of our Internet access network operation business in the Vancouver area. If Nex Connectivity Solutions is successful in securing additional contracts for Internet access network operations in the Vancouver area, then our business plan is to expand our business into new geographical areas and into new target markets, such as convention centers and institutions.

Our business operations and the operations of Nex Connectivity Solutions are in the start-up phase. Neither we nor Nex Connectivity Solutions have earned any revenues to date. The achievement of revenues will be initially based on the successful completion of the initial contract secured by Nex Connectivity Solutions. We plan to use revenues from this initial project to fund further expansion. However, there is no assurance that revenues from this initial project will be sufficient to pursue further Internet access network installations without additional financing, of which there is no assurance.

OUR JOINT VENTURE

We entered into a joint venture agreement with 5G Wireless on May 25, 2003. The joint venture agreement was entered into with the intent to form corporations to carry out the joint venture business of providing high-speed Internet access to hotel and other targeted properties. The initial joint venture corporation that was incorporated to give effect to the joint venture’s business purpose was Nex Connectivity Solutions, a Canadian federal corporation incorporated pursuant to the Canada Business Corporations Act. Nex Connectivity Solutions will carry out the joint venture’s business operations in Canada. The joint venture agreement anticipates that we may also form additional joint venture corporations in Canada and the United States if our business should expand and require such operations.

Our ownership in Nex Connectivity Solutions is governed by a shareholders agreement with 5G Wireless. Under the terms of this shareholders agreement, we and 5G Wireless each are entitled to appoint one nominee to the board of directors of Nex Connectivity Solutions. Under the shareholders agreement, fundamental business decisions require our prior written approval. In addition, we are entitled to a tie-breaking vote on matters where there is no unanimous agreement among the directors on all matters of governance to be approved by the directors of Nex Connectivity Solutions. We and 5G Wireless have each granted to each other rights of first refusal on our interests in Nex Connectivity Solutions. These rights of first refusal require that we each offer to the other our interests in Nex Connectivity Solutions and give the other the opportunity to purchase our interests prior to completing any sale of our interests to a third party.

We have agreed to advance up to $40,000 to Nex Connectivity Solutions as a loan in order to fund its start-up operations and its initial Internet access network installation. In exchange, 5G Wireless has agreed to provide: (i) certain network hardware and software valued at $10,000; (ii) the services of Dennis Tan and Hsein Loong Wong as employees to provide technical expertise and support; and (iii) a license of certain software developed by 5G Wireless for the management of hotel Internet access networks. 5G Wireless and Michael Tan, the principal of 5G Wireless, have each provided a guarantee of repayment, with accompanying security, of our loan to Nex Connectivity Solutions.

INDUSTRY BACKGROUND

We are engaged through Nex Connectivity Solutions in the business of installing and operating computer networks that enable business travelers at hotel properties to have high-speed access to the Internet. We refer to these networks as Internet access networks.

Over the past decade, use of the Internet has grown dramatically with the result that today’s traveling public has compelling business and personal needs for frequent Internet access while away from home or the office. Such reasons include:

Today’s Internet users are able to access the Internet both through “dial-up” telephone line access and through broadband or high-speed Internet access through a digital subscriber line or cable Internet access. Dial-up Internet access is slower than broadband or high-speed Internet access due to the limitations on the speed at which data can be transferred over telephone lines for dial-up access. Today’s feature rich web-based applications and advanced Internet applications demand rates of data transmission that are in excess of the rates that can be achieved using dial-up Internet access. Accordingly, consumers have adopted high-speed, broadband Internet access as an alternative to dial-up Internet access and have been converting to broadband.

Business travelers have come to demand high speed Internet access in order to take advantage of the Internet’s capabilities and in order that they can productively use their hotel time during business trips. Business travelers today typically have high speed Internet access both at the office and at home. As a consequence, we believe that business travelers will demand high-speed Internet access when traveling and staying at hotels in order that they have the full functionality and productivity provided by high-speed Internet access that they have become accustomed to at their office or home. For these travelers, conventional dial-up Internet access is too slow and is in effect too expensive in view of the limitations on productivity. As a result of these factors, we believe that business travelers will base their hotel selection in part on the ability of the hotel to provide the traveler with high speed Internet access in their hotel room.

We believe that the high-speed Internet access needs of today’s business travelers are not being met in a substantial portion of hotel properties due to a lack of high-speed Internet access at these locations. The inability of hotel properties to provide high-speed Internet access for their guests is largely a function of the high cost of installing high-speed Internet access to each room in a hotel property using conventional technologies. Until recently, affordable high speed Internet access has only been available by installing either digital subscriber line (“DSL”) service or cable Internet service to a fixed physical location. Each of these alternatives is expensive in view of the costs of connecting each hotel room to a DSL or Internet cable connection in each hotel room. As a result, many hotel properties are currently only able to offer “dial-up” Internet access to their guests. Dial-up Internet access provides Internet access at substantially lower speeds than a high-speed wireless connection. We believe that today’s business travelers will require high-speed Internet access in order that they can have the required functionality from their Internet access. Accordingly, we believe that hotel properties must be able to offer business travelers with high-speed Internet access or risk losing customers and market share.

The Internet access network business is in the early stages of an important new technological development which is being driven by the convergence of evolving broadband access needs and wireless-fidelity (“Wi-Fi”) technology developments. These Wi-Fi developments arise from the worldwide adoption of the IEEE 802.11 standards on wireless local area networks. These developments in the Wi-Fi technology include the following:

OUR MARKET OPPORTUNITY

Our market opportunity is to take advantage of the latest Internet access technologies in order to provide high speed Internet access to business travelers. We have formulated a business strategy that will enable us to install high-speed Internet access systems without the costs of installation of fixed DSL service or cable Internet service to each physical location by using wireless and other networking solutions. We plan to target hotel properties initially for installation of our Internet access systems due to the current high costs of providing high-speed Internet access to each room in a hotel using conventional services and due to the market demand of the business traveler.

OUR TECHNOLOGY SOLUTION

We have developed a technology solution to be able to take advantage of our market opportunity. Our technology solution will be a specialized Internet access network that will incorporate commercially available state-of-the-art networking hardware and software components and our specialized expertise and know-how in systems and network integration, expertise and know-how that we believe is not readily available in the marketplace today. Each individual installation requires a custom design process that must take into account (i) the specific physical circumstances of the installation that could affect network operations, including factors such as the actual location of the areas to be serviced and the physical properties, floor by floor and room by room, of the structure of the hotel; (ii) the current operating specifications and requirements of specific, commercially-available, original equipment manufacturer (“OEM”) hardware and software components; (iii) the interoperability of specific OEM hardware and software components; and (iv) future scalability considerations. We believe that proper design of each Internet access network is key to the proper “in-service” operation of the network.

A typical Internet access network that we would install can be expected to incorporate the following components:

Each Internet access network will be managed by our network operations center. The network operations center will monitor and manage the “traffic” between the Internet access network we have installed in the hotel and the Internet to ensure system security and user authentication. The network operations center will allow hotel guests to access the Internet and will ensure that payment for Internet usage is completed. We plan to use a proven, off-the-shelf, state-of-the-art software package developed by Nomadix, Inc. (“Nomadix”) for system monitoring and control purposes. Nomadix is a leading developer of Internet public-access gateways and embedded software solutions that provide transparent and secure high-speed Internet access. The Nomadix software includes a real time, data-base driven, customer billing system. The Nomadix software can also be expanded on a module-basis to include on-line credit card payment processing and can be programmed to

27

interface with many of the property management systems used by hotel properties. We have no relationship with Nomadix.

The network operations center equipment will be physically located at either the hotel premises or at an off-site location. Initially, we plan to incorporate the network operations center equipment as part of our initial hotel network installation in order to minimize our up-front expenses. As the number of installations we complete increases, we will move the network operations center to premises at a centrally controlled and operated facility hosted at an off-site hosting services provider. In either case, our staff will be able to monitor and service the network operations remotely by connecting through the Internet to the equipment comprising the network operations center wherever it is hosted.

We have designed our Internet access network solutions to include the following features, which we believe are necessary to provide efficient and reliable Internet access service:

We will provide hotel properties with a variety of different means to enable hotel guests to pay for their Internet usage. Hotel guests may pre-pay for Internet usage by a charge to their room or their credit card in advance or may charge their usage to their credit-card on a real-time, pay-as-you-go basis. Prepaid sales may also be completed through the sale of pre-paid access cards by the hotel to their guests. These pre-paid cards would be sold by us to the hotel and would entitle the hotel guest to a specified period of access which would typically be one day. The exact method for each Internet access network will be the subject of negotiation between us and the hotel property owner. After a guest has arranged for payment of their Internet usage, a user identification number and a password will be issued to the guest. Thereafter, each guest will be subject to full user identification and password protection and fully encrypted security. The privacy of each user will be respected and nothing related to a specific user will be made available to any third parties without express authorization.

We will strive to provide a high quality user experience and ongoing user support. We plan to employ a prioritized response system that will be available to our customers 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Our objective will be to develop user support and technical operations systems and procedures that will function through an escalating, user-initiated response system, including resources ranging from online response capabilities, hotel customer service staff where appropriate, and a manned user support system. Where necessary, user problems or issues will be quickly referred through front-line support personnel and onto more senior technical support staff. We anticipate that the level of user support and technical operations systems support that we are able to provide will increase as the number of Internet access networks that we have installed increases.

OUR INITIAL BUSINESS OPERATIONS

Our initial business operations will include the targeting and completion of our initial installations of Internet access networks on a project-by-project basis.

We attempted to secure our first contract for the installation of an Internet access network in June 2003. We entered negotiated an installation contract with a hotel property in Vancouver, British Columbia. However, the hotel property did not give final approval to the contract and we were unsuccessful in our attempt to enter into this contract. We have continued with our efforts to secure Internet access network installation contracts since this first unsuccessful attempt.

28

In February 2004, we entered into a contract to provide high-speed Internet access to the Empire Landmark Hotel located in Vancouver, British Columbia. This is our first Internet access network installation contract. We are attempting to secure additional contracts for additional installations at hotels within the Vancouver area. Our business strategy is to use the success of our initial installations in order to establish ourselves in the market place and to use the revenues from our initial installations in order to expand our business and complete additional installations.

We plan to design, purchase, install and commission each Internet access network that we will then own. For each project, we will provide initial training for hotel property staff and ongoing servicing and technical support. Depending upon the hotel property, we expect that sales revenues will be earned by us based upon a fixed percentage split of user charges, a fixed monthly amount, or a combination of both. The revenue sharing structure for each hotel property will be the subject of negotiations between us and the hotel property owner and will vary from project to project. The revenue sharing structure will be formalized in a long-term agreement entered into between us and the hotel property owner.

Under the terms of our initial contract for the Empire Landmark Hotel, we have agreed to purchase and install at our cost the network and Internet access hardware and software necessary to provide high speed Internet access to guest rooms and to other selected areas in the hotel, including the lobby and meeting/convention rooms. We will earn revenues through a revenue sharing agreement with the hotel whereby revenues generated by usage of the Internet access system will be shared between us and the hotel property. We will be entitled to 85% of all revenues, being all payments received for use of the system, less any refunds, and the hotel owner will be entitled to 15% of all revenues. This revenue sharing agreement has been structured in a manner to make it attractive to the hotel owner who will not have any upfront capital outlay to provide high-speed Internet access services to their guests, or any ongoing technical operations and servicing costs, thus minimizing their financial and operations risks in providing a desirable but very specialized service for their guests.

We anticipate it will take approximately two months to complete the installation of the Internet access network for the Empire Landmark Hotel property and to complete commissioning and testing. We anticipate commencing the installation in March 2004. Our contract requires that we complete and fully commission this installation by March 31, 2004. Once installed, we will test the installation for a one month period prior to full implementation. We will also be obligated to provide periodic training of hotel staff in order to support and facilitate operation of the Internet access network. The initial term of the contract will be for a five year term from the date of full implementation. In the event that we terminate the Internet services agreement before March, 2007, the hotel will be entitled to keep all of the equipment and associated assets installed in the premises at no additional cost.

Revenues for the purposes of the contract mean all payments received by either the hotel property owner or Nex Connectivity Solutions for the use of the installed network. The amount of revenues achieved will be dependent upon the usage of the network by hotel guests. User access and billing for Internet usage will be administered through a prepaid access card system using cards that we will provide and the hotel will sell to its guests. Factors that will affect usage include the percentage of business travelers at the hotel and the acceptance of the prepaid access card system by hotel guests.

We will keep our staffing requirements at a minimum while we target and complete our initial Internet access networks. Nex Connectivity Solutions hired two key staff members to enable us to complete initial projects. These individuals are Mr. Dennis Tan, chief technology manager, and Mr. Wong, user support manager. Each of Mr. Tan and Mr. Wong have been provided by 5G, our joint venture partner, at the expense of Nex Connectivity Solutions. We believe that Mr. Dennis Tan and Mr. Wong will be able to complete the management and supervision of our initial Internet access network installations without our being required to hire additional staff or contract personnel. Mr. Dennis Tan and Mr. Wong will supervise the sub-trades that we will be required to hire in order to complete each installation.

OUR PLANNED BUSINESS OPERATIONS

We plan to expand our business operations once we complete our initial installations of Internet access networks. The timing and the extent to which we are able to expand our operations will depend upon the success of our initial installations and the amount of revenues that we are able to generate. Our strategy is to keep our up-front costs as low as possible, while expanding operations when we are able to achieve efficiencies of scale from expanded operations.

29

Components of our planned business operations include the following:

30

OUR MARKETING STRATEGY

The initial principal component of our marketing strategy will be to use the completion of our initial hotel property network installation as a basis to secure additional Internet access network installation and operation contracts. We believe that hotel property owners will have a reluctance to enter into network installation and operation contracts with start-up companies that have not completed any network installations. Accordingly, we plan to use our initial hotel network installation to provide us with credibility that we can then leverage to negotiate network installation contracts with other hotel property owners in the Vancouver, British Columbia area.

We initially plan to conduct our marketing efforts using direct sales activities involving our directors and officers. We believe that we will need to establish direct contact between our directors and officers and hotel property owners as part of the initial marketing of our services and securing our initial network installation contracts. We plan to target hotel properties that are typically situated in the downtown areas of major cities and near airports. The targeted hotel properties will be typically financially stable, well established, and have high room utilization rates. Our objective will be able to secure installation contracts with hotel properties that will provide significant ongoing Internet usage by hotel guests and generate revenues from hotel guests utilizing our Internet access networks.

We plan to undertake a direct marketing campaign targeting our planned hotel niche and focus primarily on serving the Internet access needs of business travelers. Initial marketing efforts will be to target attractive hotel properties in the Vancouver, British Columbia area. Once established, we plan on pursuing further sales growth in other targeted market niches in the Vancouver area and then elsewhere geographically, starting in southwestern British Columbia and then moving onto other major centers across Canada and in the United States.

We believe that the performance of our specialized Internet access networks will be a key to our marketing efforts. Accordingly, we plan to invest significant funds in network software and hardware and we plan to keep current with the latest technology developments in the Internet access field. We plan to generate a strong demand for our Internet access networks by developing, expanding and optimizing our specialized Internet access network product and service offerings in order to better serve the needs of the business traveler. In this regard, we plan to:

TECHNOLOGY SOLUTIONS DEVELOPMENT

We do not plan to develop the individual components that will be incorporated into our technology solutions. Rather, we intend to use existing commercially available technology solutions in order to design, install and operate Internet access networks. Our business success will depend in part upon our ability to incorporate the latest technology developments into our Internet access networks in order to minimize installation costs and to provide the greatest range of services to our customers. Accordingly, we will require that our technical staff be responsible for tracking industry developments affecting software, hardware and telecommunications that could impact on our ability to develop improvements to our Internet access networks. Our objective will be to ensure that we are continuously improving our Internet access services in order to meet changing user needs and to ensure the ongoing growth and satisfaction of our user base.

OUR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

The Internet access solutions that we will provide to our customers will primarily be comprised of commercially available hardware and software solutions. We anticipate that we will not be required to develop any of the

31

individual hardware and software components that we will incorporate into our technology solutions. We believe that our competitive advantage will be based on our knowledge of existing Internet access network technology and our ability to design, install and operate Internet access technology solutions in a cost-effective and profitable manner. We will take measures to ensure that our know-how and trade secrets are protected through the execution of confidentiality agreements with third parties and through the execution of confidentiality and non-circumvention agreements with employees and consultants that we retain to carry out our business strategy. However, we anticipate that we will not rely on patent and copyright law for protection of any of our trade secrets or know-how. Accordingly, there is no assurance that competitors will not independently develop similar knowhow or otherwise obtain to our know-how, trade secrets, concepts, ideas and documentation. Furthermore, there is no assurance that confidentiality and non-competition agreements with our employees and consultants will adequately protect our trade secrets and know-how.

We will rely on commercially available software programs in order to implement and operate our Internet access networks. These third party software products will be critical to our business. Accordingly, we plan to retain and renew such software licenses and authorizations as are necessary for us to establish and continue our operations. As a licensee, we will have no assurances as to the future availability of any of the software that we require or the price at which the software owners charge us for the licenses that we require. Increases in software licensing fees may increase our cost of doing business. In addition, the inability or unwillingness of a software owner to license software that we require to us would force us to seek alternate software vendors and may result in increased costs and decreased functionality.

COMPETITION

We will face competition from companies that provide the following Internet access services to hotel properties:

As a general rule, we expect that all of our competitors will have greater financial resources than we do due to the start-up nature of our business. Accordingly, competitors may be able to develop Internet access solutions that are technically superior to our Internet access networks and may be able to devote greater financial resources to the marketing of their services. Hotel property owners may also elect to proceed with established

32

competitors rather than to enter into agreements with start-up companies. Due to these factors, there is a significant risk that our business will be materially and adversely impacted by competition.

GOVERNMENT REGULATION

We anticipate that our Internet access network business will not be subject to any direct regulation by any government agencies including, in Canada, the Canada Radio, Telephone and Telecommunications Commission (the “CRTC”) and, in the United States, the Federal Communications Commission (the “FCC”). However, we will be required to comply with general government regulations that are applicable to all businesses. We caution that in both Canada and the United States, there are ongoing discussions about the regulation of Internet operations and related economic activities. Topical issues include the following:

In addition, the current regulatory situation in Canada and the United States is subject to change, which change could include increased regulation by the CRTC or the FCC. Increased regulation may result in increased costs to us in carrying out our business operations. Increases in costs could have the ultimate effect of reducing the usage of our Internet access networks by our customers or may decrease our expected gross margins and profits.

EMPLOYEES

We currently have three part-time employees and no full-time employees. Our part-time employees include Mr. Joseph Bowes, our sole executive officer, Mr. Dennis Tan, our chief technical manager, and Mr. Hsein Loong Wong, our user support manager. Each of Mr. Dennis Tan and Mr. Wong provide their services to us on a contract basis.

SUBSIDIARIES

Our 51% interest in Nex Connectivity Solutions is owned by Gilder Tech Ventures Inc., a Canadian federal corporation, that is our wholly owned subsidiary.

OUR PRIOR BUSINESS

We were previously engaged in the business of mineral exploration. We entered into an option agreement with Rozemary Webb (the “Optionor”) on June 26, 2002, whereby we acquired the option to acquire a 100% undivided interest in certain mining leases that had previously been mined on a small scale which are located in the Discovery Lake area of the Northwest Territories of Canada (the “Mon Property”). Under the terms of the option agreement, we paid to Ms. Webb a total of $10,000 CDN. Under the terms of the option agreement, we were entitled to earn a 100% interest in the Mon Property by completing the following:

33

We received a geological report on our exploration program. The geological report was prepared by Mr. Rex Pegg, of Pegg Geological Consultants Ltd., a professional consulting geologist, and concluded that the Mon Property did not warrant further exploration based on the results of the work undertaken.

Accordingly, we determined to abandon our Mon Property option in August 2002. The option agreement was terminated by us on August 21, 2002 in accordance with the terms of the option agreement. Once we made this determination, we commenced the process of targeting other mineral properties for exploration and development work. Our investigations in this regard proved unsuccessful and in early 2003 we abandoned the mineral exploration and development business altogether in favor of pursuing other business opportunities.

Research and Development Expenditures

We have not incurred any research or development expenditures since our incorporation.

Patents and Trademarks

We do not own, either legally or beneficially, any patent or trademark.

REPORTS TO SECURITY HOLDERS

At this time, we are not required to provide annual reports to security holders. We plan to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission to become a reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 concurrent with the effectiveness of this registration statement. We currently have no plans to provide security holders with annual reports or audited financial statements until such time as we become a reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Thereafter, we will file annual reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission which will include audited financial statements. We anticipate that we will deliver our annual reports with our audited financial statements to our security holders in connection

34

with our annual general meetings. When we are a reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, shareholders and the general public may view and download copies of all of our filings with the SEC, including annual reports, quarterly reports, and all other reports required under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, by visiting the SEC site (http://www.sec.gov) and performing a search of Gilder Enterprises, Inc.’s electronic filings.

PLAN OF OPERATIONS

Our plan of operations for the next twelve months is to complete the following objectives within the time period specified, subject to our obtaining the requisite financing where applicable:

We anticipate we will be spending approximately $156,000 to $176,000 over the next twelve months in pursuing our plan of operations. Of these anticipated expenditures, we anticipate $90,000 will be spent on our plan of operations in the next six months. Our cash position was $44,938 as of February 29, 2004 and we had working capital of $31,197 as of February 29, 2004.

We have budgeted for our future capital requirements based upon current estimates of customer and business growth and anticipated revenues and expenses associated with installations of Internet access networks. We cannot be certain that actual revenues will meet our expectations or that expenditures will not be significantly higher than anticipated. In addition, there is no assurance that we will be able to meet our strategic objectives or that we will have access to adequate capital resources on a timely basis, or at all, that will enable us to carry out our plan of operations. If revenues are less than anticipated or if expenses are greater than anticipated, then we will have to adjust our plan of operations to reduce our expenditures. In this case, then we would delay the

35

hosting of our network operations center by a third party hosting service and our leasing of office space and would concentrate all of our resources on securing and completing installation contracts.

Results Of Operations

We have not earned any revenues to date. Our business plan is to earn revenues from Internet access fees paid by hotel guests for hotels where we have installed Internet access networks. We anticipate that revenues will be shared between ourselves and the hotel property owners based upon negotiated revenue sharing agreements. We anticipate that most revenue sharing agreements will provide for minimum monthly revenue amounts payable to us in order to enable us to recover the cost of the network equipment and software and commissioning costs.

We incurred operating expenses in the amount of $19,331 for the year ended May 31, 2003, excluding the effects of losses from our discontinued operations. For the nine-month period ended February 29, 2004 we incurred further operating expenses of $24,417 in securing our first Internet access network installation contract with the Empire Landmark Hotel and in connection with the preparation of the Form SB-2 registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. Our operating expenses were comprised of start up expenses in connection with the establishment of our operations. We anticipate that our operating expenses will increase substantially over the next twelve-month period due to the fact that we plan to expand our business operations and we will be completing the filing of a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission during this period.

We believe that our principal operating expenses will be characterized as follows:

We incurred a loss of $37,773 (including a loss from discontinued operations of $18,355) for the year ended May 31, 2003 and a loss of $24,232 for the nine-month period ended February 29, 2004. Our net losses were attributable entirely to our operating expenses. We anticipate continuing operating losses in the foreseeable future as we carry out our business plan and incur increased operating expenses, as discussed above. The amount and the extent of our operating losses will depend on our success in implementing our business strategy.

Financial Condition and Liquidity

We had cash of $44,938 as of February 29, 2004 and working capital of $31,197 as of February 29, 2004.

As discussed above under Plan of Operations, we anticipate that we will be spending approximately $148,000 over the next twelve-month period pursuing our plan of operations. Of these anticipated expenditures, we anticipate that $80,000 will be spent on our plan of operations in the next six months.

We anticipate that our present cash reserves will be sufficient for us to complete our initial Empire Landmark Hotel network installation contract. However, our present cash reserves and working capital will not be sufficient for us to sustain our business operations over the next twelve months without additional financing or without

36

substantial revenues from our initial contract. We anticipate that we may require additional financing in order to pursue our business plan if: (a) the costs of implementing our business plan are greater than anticipated; or (b) we are unsuccessful in earning sufficient revenues after commencement of the operations of our initial Internet access network in order to fund our plan of operations.

We have advanced $25,500 to Nex Connectivity as of February 29, 2004 in order to fund its start-up operations and its initial Internet access network installation. 5G Wireless has transferred equipment and software with fair value of $10,000 to Nex Connectivity. There is no assurance that 5G Wireless will advance any additional funds to us.

We anticipate that if we pursue any additional financing, the financing would be an equity financing achieved through the sale of our common stock. We do not have any arrangement in place for any debt or equity financing. If we are successful in completing an equity financing, existing shareholders will experience dilution of their interest in our company. In the event we are not successful in obtaining such financing when necessary, we may not be able to proceed with our business plan.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to stockholders.

Discontinued Operations

We were originally incorporated to pursue mineral exploration and development business opportunities. We acquired an option to acquire an interest in the Mon Property in June 2002. We determined in January 2003 to abandon our mineral exploration and development business. Due to this discontinuation of our prior business, our results of operations for the year ended May 31, 2003 from continued operations reflects expenses associated with our current business activities from January 31, 2003 to May 31, 2003.

Description Of Property

We do not lease or own any real property. Our head office is located at the business premises of Angus Consulting Inc., a private company controlled by Mr. Joseph Bowes, our sole executive officer and director, at 3639 Garibaldi Drive, North Vancouver, British Columbia V7H 2W2, Canada. These services are provided pursuant to our management agreement with Angus Consulting Inc. We anticipate that these premises will be sufficient for our initial operations. As discussed under Description of Business, we plan to lease office space once our business operations are expanded beyond our initial start-up phase.

37

Mr. Jun Nam (Johnny) Lee, one of our directors, purchased 187,500 shares of our common stock in his own name at a price of $0.02 per share on June 18, 2002. Mr. Jun Nam Lee paid a total purchase price of $3,750 for these shares. Mr. Mark Lee, the brother of Jun Nam (Johnny) Lee, one of our directors, purchased 187,500 shares of our common stock in his own name at a price of $0.02 per share on June 18, 2002. Mr. Mark Lee paid a total purchase price of $3,750 for these shares.

Management Services Agreement

We have entered into a management services agreement with Angus Consulting Inc., a company controlled by Mr. Joseph G. Bowes, our president, secretary and treasurer and one of our directors. Under the terms of the management services agreement, we pay Angus Consulting Inc. fees of $900 per month in consideration for management and administrative services to be provided by Angus Consulting Inc. to us. This agreement was entered into on July 1, 2002 and will continue for a two year term expiring on June 30, 2004.

Nex Connectivity Joint Venture

We entered into a joint venture agreement with 5G Wireless on May 25, 2003. The joint venture agreement was entered into with the intent to form corporations to carry out the joint venture business of providing high-speed Internet access to hotel and other targeted properties. The initial joint venture corporation that was incorporated to give effect to the joint venture’s business purpose was Nex Connectivity Solutions, a Canadian federal corporation. Nex Connectivity Solutions will carry out the joint venture’s business operations in Canada. We entered into a shareholders agreement with 5G Wireless on May 25, 2003 that governs our ownership of Nex Connectivity Solutions. The terms of the joint venture agreement and the shareholders agreements with 5G are described in detail under the heading “Description of Business – Our Joint Venture.”

We have agreed pursuant to the joint venture agreement and the shareholders agreement to advance up to $40,000 to Nex Connectivity Solutions as a loan in order to fund its start-up operations and its initial Internet access network installation. In exchange, 5G Wireless has agreed to provide certain network hardware and software valued at $10,000, (ii) the services of Dennis Tan and Hsein Loong Wong as employees to provide technical expertise and support; and (iii) a license of certain billing software developed by 5G wireless for the management of hotel Internet access networks. 5G Wireless and Michael Tan, the principal of 5G Wireless, have each provided a guarantee of repayment, with accompanying security, of our loan to Nex Connectivity Solutions. To February 29, 2004, we had advanced $25,500 to Nex Connectivity Solutions as shareholders loans pursuant to the joint venture agreement and the shareholders agreement.

38

Dennis Tan

Mr. Dennis Tan, the chief technical manager of Nex Connectivity Solutions, is the brother of the president and a director of 5G Wireless. We anticipate that we will retain Mr. Dennis Tan to provide services in connection with the installation and operation of our initial Internet access networks. We anticipate that Nex Connectivity Solutions will pay Mr. Dennis Tan an hourly or daily fee for his services. In addition, we may grant incentive stock options to Mr. Dennis Tan pursuant to our 2003 Stock Option Plan.

5G Wireless Loan

5G Wireless has transferred equipment and software with fair value of $10,000 to Nex Connectivity. As at February 29, 2004, this amount of $10,000 was recorded as “Loans Payable” on our financial statements. These loans payable are non-interest bearing and repayable only when 5G Wireless ceases to be a shareholder of Nex Connectivity.

Market For Common Equity And Related Stockholder Matters

No Public Market for Common Stock

There is presently no public market for our common stock. We anticipate making an application for trading of our common stock on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board upon the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. However, we can provide no assurance that our shares will be traded on the bulletin board or, if traded, that a public market will materialize.

The Securities Exchange Commission has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the Nasdaq system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the Commission, that: (a) contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading; (b) contains a description of the broker's or dealer's duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to a violation to such duties or other requirements of Securities' laws; (c) contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including bid and ask prices for penny stocks and the significance of the spread between the bid and ask price; (d) contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions; (e) defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading in penny stocks; and (f) contains such other information and is in such form, including language, type, size and format, as the Commission shall require by rule or regulation. The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, the customer with: (a) bid and offer quotations for the penny stock; (b) the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction; (c) the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock; and (d) a monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules; the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement.

These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our stock if it becomes subject to these penny stock rules. Therefore, if our common stock becomes subject to the penny stock rules, stockholders may have difficulty selling those securities.

39

Holders of Our Common Stock

As of the date of this registration statement, we had one hundred six (106) registered shareholders.

Rule 144 Shares

A total of 7,750,000 shares of our common stock are available for resale to the public in accordance with the volume and trading limitations of Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933.

In general, under Rule 144 as currently in effect, a person who has beneficially owned shares of a company's common stock for at least one year is entitled to sell within any three month period a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of:

Sales under Rule 144 are also subject to manner of sale provisions and notice requirements and to the availability of current public information about the company.

Under Rule 144(k), a person who is not one of the company's affiliates at any time during the three months preceding a sale, and who has beneficially owned the shares proposed to be sold for at least two years, is entitled to sell shares without complying with the manner of sale, public information, volume limitation or notice provisions of Rule 144.

As of the date of this prospectus, persons who are our affiliates hold 4,187,500 of the total shares that may be sold pursuant to Rule 144.

Stock Option Grants

To date, we have not granted any stock options.

Registration Rights

We have not granted registration rights to the selling shareholders or to any other persons.

We are paying the expenses of the offering because we seek to: (i) become a reporting company with the Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; and (ii) enable our common stock to be traded on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board. We plan to file a Form 8-A registration statement with the Commission prior to the effectiveness of the Form SB-2 registration statement. The filing of the Form 8-A registration statement will cause us to become a reporting company with the Commission under the 1934 Act concurrently with the effectiveness of the Form SB-2 registration statement. We must be a reporting company under the 1934 Act in order that our common stock is eligible for trading on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board. We believe that the registration of the resale of shares on behalf of existing shareholders may facilitate the development of a public market in our common stock if our common stock is approved for trading on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board.

We consider that the development of a public market for our common stock will make an investment in our common stock more attractive to future investors. In the near future, in order for us to continue with our plan of operations, we will need to raise additional capital. We believe that obtaining reporting company status under the 1934 Act and trading on the OTCBB should increase our ability to raise these additional funds from investors.

40

Dividends

There are no restrictions in our articles of incorporation or bylaws that prevent us from declaring dividends. The Nevada Revised Statutes, however, do prohibit us from declaring dividends where, after giving effect to the distribution of the dividend:

We have not declared any dividends and we do not plan to declare any dividends in the foreseeable future.

EQUITY COMPENSATION PLAN INFORMATION

We have one equity compensation plan under which shares of our common stock have been authorized for issuance to our officers, directors, employees and consultants, namely our 2003 Stock Option Plan. Our 2003 Stock Option Plan has been approved by our shareholders. We do not have any equity compensation plans that have not been approved by our shareholders.

The following summary information is presented for our 2003 Stock Option Plan as of our fiscal year end of May 31, 2003.

Independent Auditors’ Report

To the Directors and Stockholders of
Gilder Enterprises, Inc.
(A Development Stage Company)

We have audited the Consolidated Balance Sheets of Gilder Enterprises, Inc. (a development stage company) as at May 31, 2003 and the related Consolidated Statements of Operations, Changes in Stockholders’ Equity and Cash Flows for the year ended May 31, 2003, the period from April 25, 2002 (inception) to May 31, 2002 and the cumulative period from April 25, 2002 (inception) to May 31, 2003. 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 audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with United States generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance 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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Gilder Enterprises, Inc. as of May 31, 2003 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended May 31, 2003, the period from April 25, 2002 (inception) to May 31, 2002 and the cumulative period from April 25, 2002 (inception) to May 31, 2003 in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company was recently incorporated, has no established source of revenue and has accumulated operating losses of $40,704 since its inception. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are described in Note 1. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

At May 31, 2003, the Company had losses available for income tax purposes of approximately $41,000 (2002 - $3,000) which, if not used, will expire in 2022 and 2023.

The Company evaluates its valuation allowance requirements based on projected future operations. Management has recorded a valuation allowance because it believes it is more likely than not that the future income tax benefits of the current loss will not be realized. When circumstances change and this causes a change in management’s judgement about the recoverability of deferred tax assets, the impact of the change on the valuation allowance will be reflected in current income.

PART II

INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN THE PROSPECTUS

Item 24. Indemnification Of Directors And Officers

Our officers and directors are indemnified as provided by the Nevada Revised Statutes and our bylaws.

Under the NRS, director immunity from liability to a company or its shareholders for monetary liabilities applies automatically unless it is specifically limited by a company's articles of incorporation. That is not the case with our articles of incorporation. Excepted from that immunity are:

Our bylaws provide that we will indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent not prohibited by Nevada law; provided, however, that we may modify the extent of such indemnification by individual contracts with our directors and officers; and, provided, further, that we shall not be required to indemnify any director or officer in connection with any proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person unless:

Our bylaws provide that we will advance to any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director or officer, of the company, or is or was serving at the request of the company as a director or executive officer of another company, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, prior to the final disposition of the proceeding, promptly following request therefore, all expenses incurred by any director or officer in connection with such proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such person to repay said amounts if it should be determined ultimately that such person is not entitled to be indemnified under our bylaws or otherwise.

Our bylaws provide that no advance shall be made by us to an officer of the company, except by reason of the fact that such officer is or was a director of the company in which event this paragraph shall not apply, in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, if a determination is reasonably and promptly made: (a) by the board of directors by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the proceeding, or (b) if such quorum is not obtainable, or, even if obtainable, a quorum of disinterested directors so directs, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, that the facts known to the decision-making party at the time such determination is made demonstrate clearly and convincingly that such person acted in bad faith or in a manner that such person did not believe to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the company.

Item 28. Undertakings

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

47

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the provisions above, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933, and is, therefore, unenforceable.

In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities, other than the payment by us of expenses incurred or paid by one of our directors, officers, or controlling persons in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding, is asserted by one of our directors, officers, or controlling persons in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933, and we will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
