- Atom Educação e Editora S.A. is a Brazil-based education and publishing company primarily engaged in financial education, trader training programs, proprietary trading operations, and vocational training services. Founded in 2015 and headquartered in Sorocaba, State of São Paulo, Brazil, the company operates as a publicly traded entity on the B3 stock exchange under the ticker ATED3.
The company operates through two core business segments: Financial Education and Publishing, and Vocational Training. Its comprehensive portfolio of products and services includes online and in-person financial education courses delivered through the Universidade Atom platform, encompassing day trading, swing trading, technical and fundamental market analysis, risk management, capital preservation, and personal finance; proprietary trading desk evaluations and funded trader programs, enabling qualified independent traders to operate in equity, derivatives, and foreign exchange markets using the company's capital subject to profit-sharing agreements; publishing and editorial activities producing physical and digital books, didactic guides, e-books, and instructional manuals on financial literacy, investing, and entrepreneurship; vocational training and career education programs offered through its subsidiary network, covering administrative skills, information technology, English language proficiency, pharmacy assistance, and health care support; and interactive virtual simulations, automated mentorship tools, live trading room broadcasts, and artificial intelligence-assisted learning platforms.
The company serves retail investors, aspiring capital market professionals, young adults, and vocational students throughout Brazil, distributing its solutions via proprietary digital learning portals, direct-to-consumer e-commerce channels, and an extensive nationwide network of franchised and owned educational centers.
In recent corporate developments, the company concluded the strategic acquisition of a 51% controlling interest in Centro Brasileiro de Cursos (Cebrac) in January 2024, expanding its business model beyond digital financial education into nationwide brick-and-mortar vocational training. Between 2025 and 2026, the company underwent major shareholding reorganizations following the execution of agreements for the transfer of equity control to Valorant Capital S.A. and the associated mandatory public tender offer (OPA) procedures regulated by the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM). Following the acquisition of a 34.46% equity stake by Valorant Capital from previous major shareholders and subsequent regulatory proceedings regarding the OPA timeline, the company transitioned in 2026 to a dispersed shareholding governance model with no single controlling shareholder.
