We had the privilege of hosting at Western Balkans University Mr. Avni Ponari, a pioneering figure in the insurance industry.
Starting from 1999, Mr. Ponari shared his remarkable journey of founding and leading SIGAL UNIQA Group Austria, initially offering a narrow range of services, then expanding year after year into a market leader not just in Albania
, but also in Kosova
and North Macedonia
.
His story is one of vision, perseverance, and strategic expansion, providing invaluable lessons to our students on how to navigate and succeed in the competitive world of business. From the initial challenges to the expansive growth across borders, his insights were not just informative but truly inspiring.
Mr. Ponari’s session went beyond sharing the timeline of his success—it ignited the spirit of entrepreneurship among our students, encouraging them to dream big and work relentlessly towards their goals.
