Life
Alijaj was born 1986 in Herec near Gjakova, FPR Yugoslavia (presently Kosovo). He has two younger and one older brother. His ethnically Albanian parents immigrated to Switzerland as seasonal workers in 1987 when he was one year old. In 2009, they founded a cleaning business which is currently known as Wischmobb Zürich GmbH (respectively Wischmobb Novo Holding AG) and employs 130+ people. His father, Fatmir Alijaj, is the president of those companies.[6][7]
He has cerebral palsy following a lack of oxygen at birth and therefore also suffers from speech problems. He attended a school for special needs followed by a commercial apprenticeship. Both the company that trained him and the disability insurance encouraged him not to continue his studies by passing a professional maturity, believing that he would have no chance on the ordinary job market. He then trained as a web3 developer.
He is married and has two children.[8]
