  • (1888PressRelease) January 25, 2026 - RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL - Seren (https://seren.app). The only Brazilian Edtech focused on vocational experimentation, announces a strategic partnership with Faster Capital (https://fastercapital.com), one of the largest global venture capital builders based in Dubai, to lead its next investment round. The goal is to raise approximately **R$ 3 million** (Brazilian Reais) to boost the development and internationalization of its Artificial Intelligence (AI) career products.

    The partnership marks a moment of transformation for Seren, which is consolidating its leading position in the vocational education market. The company, which connects students with freelancers and companies for professional experimentation before career choice, now aims to become a global reference 'AITech'.

    The Power of Artificial Intelligence in Vocational Education
    The focus of the investment round is the expansion of Seren's AI portfolio, which has already demonstrated an "excellent degree of maturity compared to LATAM Edtechs" [1]. In 2024, the company launched 'SerenDeep', a Generative AI for Careers that functions as a "unique ChatGPT" [1]. This innovative tool provides detailed answers about careers, including salaries by region, roles, necessary skills, and job market health, using public domain data and Seren's exclusive information.

    "We are very confident in the partnership with Faster Capital for our current moment with Artificial Intelligence," states Vinícius Martins, CTO and co-founder of Seren [1]. "Since the beginning of 2024, when we reinforced our long-term strategic planning, everything indicates that Seren is already on the right track to establish our position with AI in the Global Vocational Education Market, fulfilling our current ambition to become an AITech" [1]. The investment will be crucial for Seren's AI *roadmap*, which aims for internationalization and the diversification of new revenue streams, ensuring better scale gains for the products in the coming years [2].

    Faster Capital: A Global Powerhouse Partner
    Faster Capital brings significant endorsement to Seren's potential. With extensive operations in the Arab world, Faster Capital is recognized as a leader in the number of supported startups, capital invested, and raised. The venture capital builder has an impressive portfolio of over 744 startups, with more than US$ 2.2 billion in fundraising and over US$ 683.2 million directly invested in 290 companies worldwide [1]. The choice of Faster Capital as a strategic partner was validated by positive *feedback* from other Edtechs that conducted investment rounds with the 'venture capital' firm [2].

    Growth and Strategic Vision
    Seren demonstrates solidity in its trajectory, having raised R$ 450 thousand in a previous round with Florida Ventures, which includes psychiatrist and writer Dr. Augusto Cury as a partner [1].

    In addition to the advancement in AI, the Edtech is focused on strategic projects with major clients, such as SENAI and BIBB [2], and is close to implementing a relevant bill for the Public Education Sector in Brazil in 2026, which could catapult the company to new levels of growth and opportunities with other State Governments [2]. Seren also recently implemented the second phase of its vocational tests' evolution, adopting a fully gamified user interface (UI) to increase student engagement [2].

    The expectation is that the investment round with Faster Capital will be concluded by the end of 2025 [2], solidifying Seren as an innovative force at the intersection of education and technology.
