Holberton School is excited to announce the grand opening of its newest campus in Cairo, Egypt, marking a significant milestone as the 20th country to host the expanding network of programming schools. Cairo, renowned for its rich history and culture, is rapidly emerging as a dynamic hub for technology and innovation. With a youthful population and an increasing demand for digital skills, Egypt offers the ideal environment to cultivate the next generation of programmers and tech leaders.

Entrepreneur Paul Wild, who is leading the initiative to bring Holberton School to Egypt alongside FinTech strategist and entrepreneur Floreta Zhulali, emphasizes the transformative power of the school’s mission: “I believe in dreaming big and coding bigger at Holberton, where we’re shaping Egypt’s digital future. I’ve witnessed the burgeoning tech landscape and its hunger for talent – with projections indicating a need for 100,000 to 150,000 software engineers in the next decade. This presents an unparalleled opportunity for our students to excel.”

Floreta Zhulali adds, “Our Silicon Valley-inspired program doesn’t just teach; it transforms. I’ve seen students immerse themselves in real-world projects, mastering cutting-edge skills that make them the tech innovators companies are eager to hire. Gone are the days of dusty textbooks and endless lectures; at Holberton, we build, create, and innovate from day one. Our graduates don’t just find jobs; they launch thriving careers, with many seeing their income soar within months. I invite you to join Holberton and not just witness Egypt’s digital story – but to write it. Your journey to tech stardom and a brilliant future begins here. Are you ready to code your way to success with us?”

In today’s competitive tech job market, the demand for skilled programmers has never been higher. Whether it’s startups or large enterprises, companies are constantly seeking professionals who can navigate the fast-changing digital landscape. As industries become increasingly reliant on technology for growth and efficiency, expertise in programming is essential. At the new Cairo campus, Holberton is dedicated to equipping students with the cutting-edge skills they need to thrive in a variety of tech roles, from web development to data science.

Holberton CEO Florian Bucher shares his vision for the future of the tech industry: “While artificial intelligence tools like ChatGPT are making waves, they are not replacements for human programmers. These technologies serve as tools to enhance productivity and creativity, but they cannot replicate the ingenuity and critical thinking that software development requires. Human programmers are essential for designing, implementing, and maintaining the systems that AI relies on. Our curriculum emphasizes these uniquely human skills, ensuring our graduates are well-prepared to collaborate with AI and leverage it in their careers.”

As Holberton prepares to open its doors in Cairo, aspiring programmers and tech enthusiasts are invited to embark on this exciting journey. The school aims to foster a strong community centered around learning, innovation, and excellence in programming. With extensive resources and experienced instructors, Holberton School is committed to empowering the next generation of tech professionals in Egypt and beyond.
