Azizi Developments is recognized as Dubizzle's Developer of the Month
Dubizzle, a subsidiary of EMPG and one of the most visited property portals, launched the Developer of the Month initiative to highlight the country's most trusted and performance-driven real estate developers. The monthly award is based on internal data analytics and editorial curation, celebrating developers with proven records of excellence and strong market presence.
Commenting on the recognition, Mr. Farhad Azizi, Group CEO of the Azizi group of companies, said: 'Being named Developer of the Month by Dubizzle is a reflection of the trust we've earned and the impact we continue to make in Dubai's real estate sector. We are proud to be recognized for our bold vision, strategic growth, and the passion we bring to each development. This further motivates us to push boundaries and deliver projects that enrich communities and elevate lifestyles.'
Azizi Milan, a landmark master-planned community, guided by the principles of sustainability, nature, and the cultured refinement of Italian fashion, brings the timeless Milanese charm to Dubai. At a total value exceeding AED 75 billion, Azizi Milan is slated to cover 40,000,000 sq. ft. in GFA, making it one of the largest mixed-use communities in the entire UAE. The master plan will be home to a population of 144,000, with 800 hotel keys to be created.
Azizi Milan has been conceptualized with inspiration from Milan's rich cultural heritage. Its bold arches and design elements add to aesthetics as well as function. The community embodies Italian sophistication, inviting future homeowners to immerse themselves in a lifestyle centered around living life to the fullest, where the beauty of everyday moments and simple pleasures are truly appreciated. Azizi Milan is poised to become the fashion capital of the region with its network of pedestrian-only fashion streets – each dedicated to their own realm of fashion, including one for perfumery, one for cosmetics, and more for bags, dress fashion, and beyond. Lined with an ample number of high-fashion brands and boutique shops, as well as numerous cafes, fine-dining restaurants, and nightlife entertainment options, Azizi Milan will form a focal point for those who enjoy the city's vibrant after-hours, as well as for those wanting to be part of internationally acclaimed fashion shows and other high-caliber events that will be hosted there.
Sustainability is a key consideration that guides the entire development of this contemporary zero-carbon community. To offset emissions, Azizi will support landmark mangrove carbon projects, as well as global forest and solar developments certified by VERRA and the Gold Standard. Next to a wide array of green building practices being implemented, every single building will feature its own beautifully landscaped rooftop garden, with the entirety of all roofs, as well as all podiums and a vast number of dedicated areas surrounding the residences, being planted with trees and flowers. Infinity pools will be framed by lush, meticulously manicured greenery. Through panoramic elevators that form an awe-inspiring feat of architecture in each and every building, residents and visitors are granted all-encompassing, scenic views of the community's stunning nature, its many fountains and water features, and its wide array of sports courts and other facilities that will enrich lives and foster a sense of community and belonging.
Azizi Milan is a dynamic, self-sustaining haven with residential projects, a sprawling mall, luxury hotels, retail districts, office spaces, and lifestyle amenities, including schools, nurseries, mosques, wellness facilities, and parks. Its tallest towers, which will shape the northern skyline, will rise up to 70 stories high, while low- to mid-rises from 25 to 35 stories make up the central part of the development, easing the shift into a quieter, more tranquil residential atmosphere. The layout incorporates centric planning principles allowing people to move easily, minimizing congestion and overcrowding. In addition, a picturesque canal will provide a unique waterfront setting for those who will call this prestigious city their new home.
Strategically situated on the iconic Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road (E311) – one of the UAE's most important arteries that connects Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah, Ajman and Ras Al Khaimah – Azizi Milan offers unmatched accessibility. Adding to its location's appeal, the community is just a short walk from the nearest future Blue Line metro station.
Azizi Milan follows the successful blueprint, construction and sales of Azizi's Riviera in MBR City, and Azizi Venice in Dubai South, with Azizi Developments serving as the master developer, overseeing road networks and general infrastructure. This reflects the company's dedication to holistic development, ensuring an integrated, all-inclusive and comprehensively well-thought-through environment.
Azizi Developments' Sales Gallery can be visited on the 13th floor of the Conrad Hotel on Sheikh Zayed Road.

The Kuwait Ministry of Finance has issued a landmark decree introducing executive regulations for taxing multinational enterprise (MNE) groups — marking a major step in the country's economic reform agenda and commitment to diversifying income beyond oil revenues. The decree (No. 55 of 2025) implements Law No. 157 of 2024, which brings Kuwait in line with the OECD's Pillar Two global minimum tax framework through the introduction of a Domestic Minimum Top-up Tax (DMTT). According to the Ministry, the new regulation clarifies legal provisions, outlines implementation mechanisms, and enhances transparency in accordance with international best practices. New Kuwait tax rules The Ministry said the move aligns with Kuwait Vision 2035, which aims to build a more diversified and resilient economy. Finance Minister and Minister of State for Economic and Investment Affairs, Eng. Nora AlFusam, said the regulation is pivotal for creating a fair investment environment and enhancing tax justice. She added that expected annual revenues from the tax could reach around KD250m ($820m), helping build a resilient and sustainable economy. The Ministry of Finance will organise a series of awareness workshops to help explain the new tax law and its executive regulations to relevant stakeholders, ensuring smooth implementation and full compliance. The tax applies specifically to large multinational groups operating in Kuwait, in accordance with global tax fairness principles outlined by the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD).

Marco Rubio defends USAID closure as uncertainty surrounds future help to poorer countries
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio has defended the closure of the US Agency for International Development, which officially shut its doors on Tuesday after more than six decades of assistance to poorer countries. Five months after Elon Musk called USAID a 'criminal organisation' and said he had fed it into a 'wood chipper', the agency started by president John F Kennedy and credited with saving millions of lives around the globe no longer exists. Its remaining functions have been absorbed into the State Department, which will oversee a new 'America First' approach to international aid. In a statement, Mr Rubio gave parts of the Middle East and North Africa as examples of places that have received US aid but held a negative view of America. Since 1991, 'more than $89 billion invested in the Middle East and North Africa left the US with lower favourability ratings than China in every nation but Morocco", Mr Rubio said. 'The agency's expenditure of $9.3 billion in Gaza and the West Bank since 1991, whose beneficiaries included allies of Hamas, has produced grievances rather than gratitude towards the United States.' Beyond creating a globe-spanning 'NGO industrial complex' at taxpayer expense, USAID has little to show since the end of the Cold War, he said. 'Development objectives have rarely been met, instability has often worsened and anti-American sentiment has only grown.' Mr Rubio said Americans should not pay taxes to fund failed governments far from the US. 'Moving forward, our assistance will be targeted and time-limited.' USAID was known globally for providing life-saving help to poorer countries, including medicine to combat HIV and Aids. Its termination comes amid several new reports projecting that cuts to US aid could lead to millions of preventable deaths. The Lancet, which analysed data from 133 low and middle-income countries from 2001 to 2023, estimates that USAID-funded programmes helped to prevent more than 91 million deaths over the past two decades, including 30 million among children. If the cuts continue, researchers project 1.8 million excess deaths in 2025 alone, with a total of 14 million by 2030 – including 4.5 million children under the age of five. 'US aid cuts, along with the probable ripple effects on other international donors, threaten to abruptly halt and reverse one of the most important periods of progress in human development,' the study said. Mr Rubio said USAID had marketed its programmes as a charity, rather than instruments of American foreign policy intended to advance US interests Former presidents Barack Obama and George W Bush, and Irish singer Bono, on Tuesday questioned the Trump administration's closure of USAID, including funding cuts to a popular Aids and HIV programme known as Pepfar (the President's Emergency Plan for Aids Relief). Mr Obama called the dismantling of USAID 'inexplicable' and 'a colossal mistake.' Washington has been the world's largest humanitarian aid donor, amounting to at least 38 per cent of all contributions recorded by the UN. It disbursed $61 billion in foreign assistance last year, just over half of that through USAID, according to government data. The State Department denied criticism, saying countries want investment opportunities, not handouts. 'We think that the best thing we can do, from a moral perspective, to lead to development and a betterment of life all around the world, is to invest in the peace and prosperity of those countries,' a senior State Department official told reporters. 'Which means trade, investment, sort of growing our bilateral connection that way so that's the administration's view at least.' The official also said reports that Pepfar funding will not continue are inaccurate. 'The Secretary said, many, many times, Pepfar will continue, will become more efficient and we believe, more impactful,' the official said.
