Dubai, UAE – In May 2025, TheBlock and Cointelegraph entered into a strategic partnership during the Token2049 conference in Dubai. The agreement is designed to accelerate global tokenization adoption, encourage regulatory discussions, and help new businesses grow across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region.
The alliance enables Cointelegraph to establish a presence at TheBlock’s headquarters in the Dubai World Trade Center. The partnership will deliver collaborative educational panels, roundtable talks, and summits focused on real-world assets (RWAs), regulatory compliance, and capital distribution, according to official statements from both organizations.
“This partnership is not just about media,” said Farbod Sadeghian, Founder of TheBlock. “It is about building an access layer for the global virtual asset economy. By working with Cointelegraph, we are strengthening how the industry connects, informs, and grows — from regulatory frameworks to investment pipelines.”
Cointelegraph will participate through media engagement, speaking opportunities, and collaborative events. Yana Prikhodchenko, CEO of Cointelegraph, explained, “The partnership reflects Cointelegraph’s ongoing efforts to broaden its network of like-minded collaborators, all working toward the shared goal of strengthening and advancing the ecosystem. We aim to grow the community by leveraging this partnership while also expanding our regional presence in the UAE. This collaboration will help strengthen both efforts.”
TheBlock currently plans more than 100 events each year and reports handling over $8 billion in project deal flow, serving as a launchpad for global startups and enterprises looking to enter the region. Its ecosystem connects regulators, investors, and institutions, providing platforms for dialogue and growth.
The agreement also reflects ongoing support for Dubai’s emergence as a center for virtual assets, with regulatory innovation and real-world digital asset applications advancing in the area.
