Dubai Real Estate Presented in Italian Parliament for the First Time

Dubai’s real estate market has reached a new global stage. For the first time in history, it was officially presented inside the Italian Parliament, marking a debut for the emirate’s property market.

Dubai Real Estate Makes Parliamentary History

On September 18, 2025, the Chamber of Deputies in Rome hosted a defining moment: Dubai real estate was formally presented in a national parliament. This unprecedented recognition underscores the emirate’s increasing significance as a hub for investment, economic diplomacy, and cross-border partnerships.

Italian luxury real estate broker Christian Marzullo, based in Dubai with Provident Real Estate, was invited to speak at the “Made in Italy 2030” conference, attended by entrepreneurs, professionals, and policymakers.

Italian Excellence Meets Dubai’s Vision

The conference, promoted by Italian MP Cristina Almici, brought together leaders to explore how Italian excellence can enhance its global role. By placing Dubai’s property market at the center of the discussion, Almici emphasized Italy’s ambition to deepen ties with leading international hubs.

Representing Italian excellence abroad, Marzullo positioned Dubai’s real estate not only as a strong investment sector but also as a platform for cultural and economic exchange between Italy and the UAE.

Why Italy Chose to Spotlight Dubai Real Estate

Dubai was chosen for this stage because of its global reputation:

• Trusted Investment Hub: Transparent regulations, freehold ownership, and Golden Visa opportunities.
• High ROI: Rental yields averaging 6–8%, often higher than major European cities.
• Cross-Border Appeal: Rising demand from European buyers, including Italians.
• Economic Partnerships: Real estate as a bridge for cultural and business diplomacy.

This aligns with broader market sentiment. According to the Dubai Land Department, transactions in H1 2025 reached AED 431 billion, with Europeans playing an increasingly active role.

From Sicily to Dubai to the Italian Parliament

During his intervention, Marzullo introduced his upcoming autobiographical and motivational book, “AVE – Aspire. Value. Endure.”

The book chronicles his journey from Sicily to Dubai, and now to the Italian Parliament, underlining the values of resilience, ambition, and the timeless spirit of Made in Italy carried abroad.

From Sicily to Dubai, and now to the Italian Parliament, I wanted to demonstrate how Dubai’s real estate market can inspire new international synergies,” Marzullo shared. “This milestone proves that Made in Italy and Dubai can speak the same language: vision, ambition, and global appeal.

The Bigger Picture: What This Means for Investors

For global investors, the recognition of Dubai real estate in the Italian Parliament sends a clear signal:

Institutional Confidence: Parliamentary-level acknowledgment validates Dubai’s market credibility.

Secure Growth: Tax-free benefits and long-term stability support reliable returns.

Rising European Demand: Italy now joins the UK, France, and Germany in driving European investment momentum.

Global Connectivity: Dubai remains a pivotal hub at the crossroads of Europe, Asia, and the Middle East.

Strengthening the Italy–Dubai Connection

The conference was streamed live on the official WebTV of the Italian Parliament, expanding its visibility and reinforcing Dubai’s positioning as a world-class destination for investors, entrepreneurs, and global citizens.

For Provident Real Estate, this moment underscores the strength of Dubai’s property sector as a beacon for international collaboration and a catalyst for economic growth.

The entry of Dubai’s real estate market into the halls of the Italian Parliament is more than a symbolic milestone; it is a testament to how the emirate’s real estate continues to inspire confidence, connectivity, and opportunity on a global scale.
