eXp Realty Dubai launches ICON to find Dubai's best real estate agents
DUBAI, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES, May 27, 2025 / EINPresswire.com / -- eXp Realty Dubai has today announced the launch of its ICON Program within the region, an initiative designed to identify and celebrate the very best real estate agents within Dubai and those who not only perform at the highest level, but do so with eXp's core values at the heart of their operations.
First launched in 2015 by the wider eXp business, ICON status is one of the top incentives that eXp agents can strive towards.
In order to achieve ICON status, agents must exceed professional requirements whilst also representing eXp's core values on the global real estate stage over the course of the year.
Once involved in the ICON Program, there are additional opportunities for ICONs to earn more awards by 'giving back' time, talents, and knowledge to eXp's agent population and also by attending specific eXp-approved events.
ICON agents are an integral part of eXp's culture. ICONs serve as role models, culture keepers, and
a source of inspiration to other agents at eXp.
ICON status in itself is one of the highest accolades an eXp real estate agent can be given, but in addition, it comes with a range of benefits, including: -
Receiving up to 100,000 AED in ICON Stock Awards
75,000 AED by meeting the ICON Production Award Requirements.
25,000 AED by meeting the ICON Cultural Commitment Award Requirement.
Exclusive access to the customizable ICON Brand Kit
Company-wide recognition via an article on life.exprealty.com, an announcement posted in
Workplace, and during Friday Leadership Meeting
The launch of eXp ICON status within Dubai not only signifies the strength the brand has built since launch within the region, but also the high level at which eXp Dubai member agents are performing on a day to day basis.
To find out more about achieving ICON status, contact eXp Dubai.
Head of eXp Dubai, Dounia Fadi, commented:
'Dubai has arguably become one of, if not the, premier real estate hotspot on the global stage and, naturally, this means that we attract the very best real estate agents from around the world.
Whilst we already provide our member agents with access to the best technology, resources and support in order to succeed via eXp's global cloud-based community, we also feel that it's important to celebrate those performing at the very highest level.
Therefore, we're delighted to launch ICON status within the region so that we can not only give these agents the recognition that they deserve, but also reward their hard work, whilst encouraging them to help empower their fellow agents to enjoy the same success.'

Dubai Retains Global Top Spot for Attracting Greenfield FDI Projects in Cultural and Creative Industries in 2024
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates--(BUSINESS WIRE)--(Dubai Culture) Dubai has maintained its first place as the world's leading destination for greenfield foreign direct investment (FDI) in the cultural and creative industries (CCI), topping the Financial Times' fDi Markets ranking for the third consecutive year. The 2024 report, which assessed 233 cities under the 'Creative Industries Cluster' classification, placed Dubai ahead of global hubs such as London and Singapore. During the year, the emirate attracted 971 CCI projects—an 8% increase from 2023—bringing in AED 18.86 billion in capital inflows, up nearly 60% from 2023, and generating 23,517 new jobs, a 9% year-on-year rise. All major CCI subsectors saw stronger performance, with notable growth in advertising and PR, film and media production, gaming, education, and advanced software design. According to the Dubai FDI Monitor, greenfield, wholly-owned ventures made up 76.5% of all projects, while new forms of investment represented 15.4%, reinvestment 5.6%, and mergers & acquisitions (2.4%). Data from the Dubai FDI Monitor and the Dubai Framework for Cultural Statistics show that the United States accounted for the largest share of capital inflows in 2024, at 23.2%, followed by India (13.4%), the United Kingdom (9.4%), Switzerland (7.6%), and Saudi Arabia (4.8%). India led in both the number of projects (18.8%) and jobs (18.5%), while the UK, US, Germany, Italy, and France also featured prominently across both metrics. Investor confidence continues to be driven by Dubai's pro-business reforms, including Executive Council Resolution 11 of 2025, which enables free zone businesses to operate onshore, expanding commercial flexibility. The city's Zero Government Bureaucracy programme is also reducing red tape across more than 2,000 federal procedures. Combined with strong intellectual property protections and advanced digital infrastructure, these initiatives have helped establish a regulatory framework marked by efficiency, transparency, and ease of doing business. Insights from the ' Creative Dubai: Navigating Tomorrow's Creative Landscape' report illustrate how this ecosystem is scaling with demand, pinpointing investment opportunity hotspots in design, immersive media and AI-driven production. Dubai continues to offer investors access to top-tier talent, competitive setup costs, and strategic connectivity. The 2024 FDI results underscore the city's rise as a global hub for innovation and one of the world's most attractive environments for creative enterprise.

Merck announces data from trial studying KEYTRUDA plus Trodelvy
Merck (MRK), known as MSD outside of the United States and Canada, announced that KEYTRUDA plus Trodelvy reduced the risk of disease progression or death by 35% versus KEYTRUDA plus chemotherapy for the first-line treatment of patients with PD-L1+ inoperable locally advanced or metastatic triple-negative breast cancer, TNBC, as determined by an FDA-approved test. KEYTRUDA, when given in combination with Gilead's TROP2 antibody-drug conjugate, ADC, Trodelvy, resulted in a median progression-free survival, PFS, of 11.2 months versus 7.8 months when KEYTRUDA was given in combination with chemotherapy. These data from the pivotal Phase 3 ASCENT-04/KEYNOTE-D19 study will be presented today as a late-breaking oral presentation at the 2025 American Society of Clinical Oncology, ASCO, Annual Meeting and were selected for the official ASCO Press Program. A higher objective response rate was observed for the KEYTRUDA plus Trodelvy combination, including 13% and 8% with a complete response, respectively, in the KEYTRUDA plus Trodelvy and KEYTRUDA plus chemotherapy arms. Notably, a substantially longer duration of response was observed with KEYTRUDA plus Trodelvy. Encouraging trends in overall survival were also observed, but data are immature at the time of PFS primary analysis. Overall survival follow-up remains ongoing and will continue to be monitored as a key secondary endpoint.

Best Photos of Marilyn Monroe Over the Years
When people think of Old Hollywood, one of the first images that pops into their head is the legendary starlet Marilyn Monroe. An A-list actress who came from tragic, humble beginnings, Monroe had an unstable home life and grew up in orphanages, leaving them to pursue her starlet dreams as soon as possible. She was discovered working in a factory for World War II and was soon cast in high-profile modeling gigs. Then Hollywood called her name as she set to star in classics like Some Like It Hot, The Seven-Year Itch, and Gentleman Prefer Blondes, to name a few. From playing the 'blonde bombshell' to defining an era of beauty, Marilyn Monroe seemed to be able to do anything she wanted. Sadly, the smiling face many adored on the silver screen was not the reality. Monroe had a hard life, battling extensive mental issues and lost love. It was well known that her mental state was fragile, but she was hailed as a beacon of strength for herself and her friends nonetheless. On Aug. 4, 1962, the world was heartbroken when Monroe was found dead in her bedroom at age 36 from suicide. Ever since then, many have paid homage to the starlet through the art of their own. Most recently, Madonna paid homage to Monroe in a series of controversial photos. To this day, many ask questions about her life and sudden death. But over 60 years after her untimely death, she remains one of the most celebrated actresses in history. Learn more about her turbulent life, career, and romances in the iconic photos below, in honor of what would've been her 99th birthday today. A version of this article was originally published on Nov 2021. More from SheKnows Madonna's Latest Risqué Photos Channel Marilyn Monroe — & Some People Aren't Happy About That Best of SheKnows All the Men Marilyn Monroe Reportedly Had Relationships With Throughout Her Short Life Every Time Heidi Klum's Gorgeous, Colorful Fashion Choices Stopped Us in Our Tracks Elizabeth Hurley & Billy Ray Cyrus, & More of the Best Red Carpet Debuts From Celebrity Couples Over the Years Marilyn Monroe's stage name origin is a somewhat sweet tale. The head of new talent at Fox Studios, Ben Lyon, thought she looked like a Marilyn, and she requested to have the last name Monroe in honor of her grandmother. And despite being a natural brunette, Monroe's agency, Blue Book Modeling Agency, wanted her to bleach her hair to a lighter color. Monroe was quite erratic with showing up for the set, so she would have her own screen-tests at random times. In 1949, Marilyn Monroe was cast in her first leading role in the film, Ladies of the Chorus. Monroe worked tirelessly to earn her iconic role in the film noir, The Asphalt Jungle. Director John Huston said she was amazing at the audition. 'Marilyn didn't get the part because of Johnny [her agent]. She got it because she was damned good.' Before she was discovered, Marilyn Monroe worked factory jobs to help supply forces for World War II. Marilyn Monroe had a strong desire to be taken more seriously as an actress, despite being cast in comedies. Marilyn Monroe frequently consulted with acting coaches, but she had a soft spot for her first one, Natasha Lytess. Marilyn Monroe was very well-read and had over 400 volumes in her library. Monroe frequently spoke in third person, saying things like, 'She wouldn't do this. Marilyn wouldn't say that.' Marilyn Monroe frequently attended A-list movie premieres and always wore lavish gowns. For Gentleman Prefer Blondes, Monroe stole the show with her performances. However, she earned about $18,000, while her male co-stars earned upwards of $150,000. So she insisted on her own dressing room saying, 'I am the blonde, and it is Gentlemen Prefer Blondes.' Marilyn Monroe and Lauren Bacall starred alongside one another in the hit film, How to Marry a Millionaire. Old-Hollywood starlet Betty Grable starred with them as well. Marilyn Monroe frequently traveled around the globe for her work. (Original Caption) Marilyn Monroe is shown in this photo entertaining military troops in Korea. Marilyn Monroe and Joe DiMaggio's rollercoaster romance only lasted nine months. They got married spontaneously only a few months into their relationship and then got divorced over their long-term goals. Marilyn Monroe and Joe DiMaggio frequented the Stork Club, just like Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz. Marilyn once said about her favorite singer. 'Well, my very favorite person, and I love her as a person as well as a singer. I think she's the greatest, and that's Ella Fitzgerald.' They ended up being great friends, and Monroe used her A-list status to help with Fitzgerald's career. Despite her lavish outfits and accessories, Marilyn wasn't a fan of statement pieces. She would wear costume jewelry most of the time. Monroe's most iconic look was when she cheekily stepped onto a grate, having the wind blow up her dress. She shocked audiences with this performance in The Seven Year Itch and it has been considered a legendary scene to this day. Monroe frequently brushed elbows with A-listers like Vivien Leigh and Sir Laurence Olivier. Monroe and her third husband, Arthur Miller, were all smiles at movie premieres of all kinds. But behind the scenes, they had a hard marriage filled with distance, miscarriages, and fighting. Arthur Miller and Marilyn Monroe waited in their car to leave their residence. Monroe and Miller lived in a now-$6.75 million NYC penthouse. Marilyn Monroe left her home in New York to film the iconic film, Some Like It Hot. She took a brief acting break before returning to act in the legendary film. Ronald Reagan actually gave Marilyn Monroe her first big job. Reagan thought sending pictures of pretty factory girls would boost morale, so he got Monroe in some shots! Marilyn was notorious for being late on-set and forgetting her lines, even in her most popular production, Some Like It Hot. Marilyn Monroe and Montgomery Clift starred alongside one another in the hit film, The Misfits. This was Monroe's last feature-length film before her untimely death. Monroe had to undergo an emergency gall bladder operation in 1961, but was in good spirits afterwards. Oscar-nominated actor Don Murray said Monroe hated being in front of the camera. 'I think it was a lack of confidence. For somebody who the camera loved, she was still terrified of going before the camera and broke out in a rash all over her body.' Despite this, the camera undeniably loved her. Something's Got to Give was Marilyn's last performance before her death less than six months later.
