CODE0039 Selected for the Italian Certified Connectors Dubai

CODE0039 Cooperativa Designer Italiani has been selected to participate in the prestigious “Italian Certified Connectors 2025” programme, promoted by the Italian Chamber of Commerce in the United Arab Emirates (IICUAE) under the high patronage of the Italian Embassy. The initiative will culminate in the MEAC – Middle East Architecture Congress 2025, scheduled in Dubai from 31 October to 1 November 2025, one of the most anticipated events on the international architecture, design and engineering scene.

Recognition of the value of Made in Italy

The selection of CODE0039 within this context represents an important recognition for the cooperative, which has been promoting Italian creativity and know-how in the field of sustainable design and innovation applied to living spaces and architecture for years. The “Italian Certified Connectors” project was created with the specific aim of fostering the internationalisation of Italian professional excellence, building a direct bridge between Italy and the United Arab Emirates, one of the most dynamic and rapidly expanding markets in the world.

Networking, training and international visibility

Thematic workshops, B2B meetings and round tables dedicated to the main industry trends: from the digitalisation of design processes to 3D printing, through to smart cities and sustainable mobility — these are the key highlights of the initiative. Participation will also offer privileged access to the new exclusive IICUAE platform, which will provide Italian designers with international visibility and opportunities for collaboration with local firms and businesses.

Dubai Skyline Architecture Awards 2025

Among the most eagerly awaited events is the Dubai Skyline Architecture Awards 2025, a competition that will honour the best architecture and sustainable design projects created by Italian professionals. CODE0039, thanks to its multidisciplinary and innovation-driven approach, is preparing to submit proposals capable of enhancing the Italian aesthetic and cultural identity within a global context.

A bridge between Italy and the Middle East

“Being part of MEAC 2025 means not only representing Made in Italy on the world stage, but also building new synergies with a territory experiencing strong growth and open to experimentation”, say architects Laura Crognale and Dante Antonucci, representatives of the cooperative. CODE0039’s participation confirms the group’s mission: to bring together diverse skills, cultures and visions to design a sustainable and shared future, where Italian design continues to be a symbol of excellence, innovation and beauty.
