Valor Capital, Canary and Wayra Invest USD5m in Brazilian Edtech Alicerce Educação (em português)

Valor and Canary Invest in Alicerce

Alicerce Educação, a Brazilian network of education centers to supplement students in the public school system living in city peripheries, raised a USD5m seed extension from Valor Capital Group, Canary and Wayra. Wayra Hispam invested in 2020; Canary and Valor led a ~USD5m seed round in 2019.

Criada há menos de dois anos por Paulo Batista, um executivo do mercado financeiro que comandou a varejista de produtos odontológicos Dental Cremer — vendida ao grupo americano Henry Schein —, a Alicerce tropeçou no início da pandemia após o fechamento repentino das unidades, mas sustentou a operação com o dinheiro dos sócios e chegará ao pós-pandemia bem maior.
