« We need developers and systems engineers to accelerate the development of our independent technologies, and we have already been partnering with various Swiss universities for several years.

« Investing in education is vital for Azqore. In an increasingly complex and uncertain world, we are looking for more than just technical skills.

As a major player in the IT sector, we have a duty to play a key role in training the experts of tomorrow. In addition to traditional schools or apprenticeships, we were looking for disruptive ways to find our future talent. We were immediately attracted to École 42's unique, innovative and dynamic concept and were convinced by its approach, which will enable us to make an effective contribution to training highly competent, creative future IT specialists with a collaborative spirit that is fully in line with our DNA. We look forward not only to supporting them, but also to making an active contribution to our shared development by diving into the Ecole 42 Lausanne pool with our eyes closed. »

« The shortage of IT specialists in Switzerland and in the canton is taking on worrying proportions. More generally, the shortage of talent in digital professions is very real. The model proposed by École 42 Lausanne clearly meets a need and deserves to be supported, which is what the CVCI has decided to do through its Foundation. To make up for the general shortage of available profiles, we need to be creative and multiply our solutions. The recipes are education, promotion of MINT subjects, enhancement of vocational training and collaboration. In the digital sector, the Canton is clearly not sufficient to meet the expectations of the economic fabric. In this respect, collaboration between the economy, politics, education - both public and private - and training partners is fundamental. »

Director, Vaud Chamber of Commerce and Industry
