Digital Xavier Niel to open a 42 school in Senegal
Created in France 7 years ago, the school 42 of the French billionaire Xavier Niel, shareholder of several projects in Africa, will soon settle in Senegal to train in the digital professions. After South Africa and Morocco, it is the Teranga country’s turn to host school 42. 42 is the first training course in computer coding completely free, open to all, without qualification requirements and accessible from 18 years old. This school specializing in computer code was founded by Xavier Niel in 2013 when the digital industry in France suffered from a significant shortage of computer developers.
