Our history

Ten years ago, a visionary programming school was founded in Paris, sparking enthusiasm for collaborative learning and technical innovation. Since then, over 50 campuses in more than 30 countries have been established in the 42 network.

In 2021, Christophe Wagnière and entrepreneurs opened 42 Lausanne, which has been successfully bringing more than 500 talents into the world of work ever since.

Cristina, Camille & Corina are now leading the initiative to bring this effective learning model to Zurich. The focus of 42 Zurich is on future-proof and sustainable education.
