Dentons continues to advise on complex project development and finance mandates, with recent work spanning large-scale renewable projects, district cooling, waste-to-energy schemes, and major social, transport, and tourism infrastructure builds. The team’s wide regional footprint and strong local-law capabilities make it a go-to for cross-border mandates, particularly those involving emerging hydrogen projects and regulatory-heavy developments. Practice head Jon Nash routinely acts for sponsors, developers, and lenders on high-value projects across the Middle East. Udayan Mukherjee and Stephen Knight remain central to the firm’s project finance offering, advising on both lender and borrower-side structures across a broad mix of assets. Kanishka Singh draws on his in-house experience to guide clients through energy transition, social infrastructure, and transport mandates.
