FORME develops and delivers financial-education programs for students in primary and secondary (fundamental and médio) schools. The company closed an investment round totaling R$1.2 million. The funds will be directed to marketing, sales and technology to expand activities and reach more schools and students. FORME secured the investment during its participation at Bett Educar, which helped attract investor attention and new business opportunities. The article highlights the company’s focus on preparing students for the job market through quality financial education. Core Angels Edutech participated in the round to complete the R$1.2 million raise. Forme opened its first investment round on the Angels Wallet equity crowdfunding platform operated by Ventiur. The campaign has already secured R$533,000, equal to 66% of a R$800,000 target, with the round able to reach 100% until the end of March. CEO Bruno Lewis says the funds will accelerate the company’s goal of expanding financial-education access to many more children in a much shorter time frame—reducing a projected 3–5 year timeline to about 1 year. If the round reaches 100%, Forme plans to invest in hybrid solutions, including didactic materials and gamified apps for students. The company praised the Angels Wallet process for its clarity, reporting and shared strategy during the raise. Angels Wallet is making its market debut with this campaign, and company and platform leaders framed the result as symbolically important amid challenging market conditions. FORME builds and delivers financial-education curricula and tools for early childhood through middle‑school, currently focused on private schools. The company offers classroom content across Educação Infantil, Ensino Fundamental 1 and 2 and plans to develop high‑school materials by the end of 2023, alongside a gamified app. FORME serves 203 schools and more than 10,000 students across 20 Brazilian states and the Federal District, and also works with schools in Germany, Portugal and Canada. The firm reports a 15% rise in student numbers at institutions using its program. Leadership is led by CEO Bruno Lewis, with directors for marketing and commercial functions and a pedagogical coordinator. Expansion priorities include technology development, increased marketing and sales, and openness to partnerships with public schools.
