- Cogna Educação S.A. operates as one of Brazil's largest private educational organizations, providing a comprehensive range of educational services from early childhood through higher education and professional training primarily in Brazil with international reach. The company conducts its activities through three main segments: Kroton, focused on in-class and distance-learning higher education including undergraduate and graduate courses under brands such as Anhanguera, Pitagoras, Unopar, Unic, Unime, and Fama; Vasta, offering basic education solutions, pre-university preparatory courses, language courses, teaching materials, school management advisory, and complementary educational tools including technology platforms for digital learning; and Saber, providing educational technology software for adaptive teaching, academic management optimization, student financing advisory, and licensing of pedagogic products. It also engages in editing, marketing, distribution, wholesale, retail, import, and export of textbooks, workbooks, magazines, and other educational publications; administration of kindergarten, elementary, high school, and vocational programs; and development of edtech solutions for technical education and governmental sales. Founded in 1966 and headquartered in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Brazil, the company serves over 1.2 million higher education students and targets schools, students, and institutions across primary, secondary, postsecondary, and lifelong learning segments. Recent developments include a June 2025 partnership with IFC receiving a $100 million BRL-linked loan to modernize Kroton's technology infrastructure, enhance undergraduate learning platforms, and expand hybrid and digital education access especially in underserved regions; strong Q3 2025 revenue growth of nearly 19% driven by double-digit expansions in higher education, basic education core segments, languages, and governmental solutions via Acerta Brasil; launch of new franchise units for Anglo brand reaching 14 units planned for 2026; and ongoing debt restructuring efforts with extension of tender offers into late 2025.
