CORTEX Engineering Construction (CORTEX E&C), previously known as Square General Contracting LLC Dubai, was initially established as a branch of Square General Contracting Company LLC Abu Dhabi. In 1997, the owners of the companies decided to split the entities, thus becoming two separate commercial entities with different ownership structures. The name of the Dubai entity was renamed CORTEX Engineering Construction to differentiate between the companies.
The current ownership structure of the company is such that fifty one percent of the company is owned by Mr. Abdul Jailil Abdul Rahman Al Blouki and forty nine percent by Mr. Nassar Odeh, both previous shareholders and founders of Square General Contracting Company Abu Dhabi LLC. Mr. Nassar Odeh is the managing partner of CORTEX E&C and the previous Managing Partner of Square General Contracting Company LLC Abu Dhabi from its inception in 1977 to October 2010.
