The 2015 season for the Southeast Pro Cycling cycling team is began in January at the Vuelta al Táchira. The team participates in UCI Continental Circuits and UCI World Tour events when given a wildcard invitation.

In light of the doping scandals which took place within the team, during the 2013 and 2014 season, Neri Sottoli dropped their title-sponsorship for the 2015 season and Luca Scinto left the team. Chinese construction company SouthEast Space Frame Co. became title sponsor of the team.[1]
