Akin Gump recently completed two landmark transactions on behalf of The Dow Chemical Company.

The team subsequently represented Dow and the joint venture, Dow-Mitsui Chlor Alkali, LLC, in a $677 million project financing to fund the construction of the plant. Dow has described the joint venture a key milestone in the execution of its long-term strategy.
