The International Olympic Committee (IOC) has confirmed that the Dow Chemical Company has agreed a deal to become a TOP (The Olympic Programme) partner.
Dow, which was linked with the sponsorship earlier in July, has signed up as a worldwide Olympic partner and the official chemistry company for the Olympic Movement until 2020.
IOC president Jacques Rogge said: “We are delighted to welcome Dow to the TOP programme. As a global leader in the chemical industry and an innovator in sustainability, Dow will not only provide critical financial support to the Olympic Movement, but also bring industry-leading expertise and innovation to the Games themselves. Dow will be an important partner in making our vision for sustainability a reality.”
Dow chairman and chief executive Andrew Liveris added: “With our long-standing commitment to global sustainability, innovation, scientific excellence and addressing world challenges, we believe Dow is perfectly matched to the vision of the Olympic Movement, which is about peace, progress and the world coming together to celebrate our common humanity.
“In addition, our association with the Olympic Games will present Dow with tremendous new business opportunities, making this partnership a powerful growth catalyst that comes at the right time in our company’s strategic transformation.”
