Valon Asani

Founder, BE THE ONE

Valon Asani is the founder of BE THE ONE, a self-development system built on identity, discipline, and daily ritual. He is also the founder of dua.com, the largest platform for the Albanian diaspora with over 1.1 million users, and CEO of MIK Group, a Swiss business group operating in construction, real estate, and infrastructure. His work on BE THE ONE comes out of the gap he hit between running real companies and feeling like something fundamental was still missing.

What his work focuses on

Valon was born in Kosovo and moved to Switzerland, where he has built his career across two industries that usually have nothing to say to each other. In 2011 he launched AlbanianFriends.com, an early platform for Albanians abroad looking for partners who shared their culture. The project won first place at the "Get in the Ring" international startup competition in Kosovo. Eight years later he returned to the same problem with better resources and launched dua.com, now headquartered in Zurich with over 1.1 million users. In parallel he is CEO of MIK Group, a Swiss business group in construction, real estate, and infrastructure. BE THE ONE came out of the gap between external achievement and internal self-trust. He started documenting his own process. Those notes turned into a book. The book forced a system. That system is BE THE ONE.
