Assets Overview
Tangible assets: The central management office in Querétaro (owned, ~500 sqm) currently supports accounting, legal, IT, HR, and marketing for existing campuses and prepares for SPV operations. No other tangible assets are owned yet. New campus (600-860 students each) will be built with the MXN 80-116 million investment.
Intangible assets: 10+ years of expertise in founding and managing premium PBL schools in Mexico, driving +1,650% enrollment growth (85 to 1,492 students) and 27-30% EBITDA. Includes proprietary PBL/STEAM curricula, brand recognition, and awards (e. g. , Grupo Petersen), backed by robust financial data, positioning the SPV for scalable success.
Facilities Overview
This proposal is for new SPV-funded campuses (600-860 students each), replicating own-built model for national expansion without leases. This can be achieved either by purchasing existing schools and transitioning into our model, or by building our own.
But on our current businesses, we have a total of 5 different campuses in different sizes, complete with sports fields, K1-K12 classrooms. Ranges from 310 to 900 students per school.
Capitalization Overview
Presently, we manage most businesses through friends-and-family funding.
In this new proposal, we are looking for larger investment to move faster, now that we have a successful model with strong financial and backend support.
We do not work with debt; we only work with capital investment.
