About Us

At dua.com, our mission is to bring Albanians together, no matter where they are, by creating meaningful connections. We believe love is more than just finding a partner – it’s about discovering someone who shares your language, traditions, values, and jokes.

Our platform empowers individuals to connect deeply, build strong relationships, and grow together while reducing loneliness and fostering a sense of community worldwide.

With dua.com, finding love means finding someone who truly understands and resonates with who you are.

Vision

We envision a world where Albanians can connect across borders and cultures. Love knows no boundaries, and every individual deserves the chance to find their true partner, no matter where they live.

Our goal is to empower individuals to find lasting love and build strong relationships rooted in mutual respect and shared values. For us, love is more than just meeting someone – it’s a journey of self-discovery, growth, and building something meaningful together.

Our platform aims to help people connect deeply, support each other, and create lasting, fulfilling relationships, enabling them to become the best versions of themselves.

Mission

Our mission is to transform the dating experience for Albanians by offering a safe, inclusive, and culturally aware platform tailored to the unique journey of love. We understand the challenges of loneliness and hesitation that many face due to past experiences.

That’s why we go beyond traditional dating apps—we guide users to be ready for love through personal growth and self-awareness. With dua.com, it’s not just about finding someone; it’s about becoming the one for someone special, finding your match, and growing together.

We are more than a dating app; we are a platform dedicated to helping Albanians create strong connections, build families, and preserve our shared culture and values.

How it all began

The story of dua.com began with Valon Asani, CEO of MIK Group, who was passionate about uniting the Albanian community and addressing important challenges like love and marriage.

Valon Asani, founder and CEO of dua.com, grew up in Kosovo and later moved to Switzerland. Like many Albanians in the diaspora, he returned to Kosovo every year and realized how difficult it was to find someone who shared his humor, values, and Albanian traditions. This sparked the idea for a dating app for Albanians in 2011.

His journey began with “AlbanianFriends.com,” which he presented at the international startup competition “Get in the Ring,” winning first place in Kosovo.

Eight years later, in 2019, Valon revisited his vision and created dua.com—a platform connecting Albanians worldwide through love, culture, and shared values.
