Joint Venture
A business arrangement where two or more companies agree to work together on a specific project while remaining separate entities.
Joint ventures allow companies to combine strengths (technology + manufacturing, local knowledge + capital) without a full merger. They need clear agreements on control, profit sharing, and what happens if things go wrong.
It's like two friends teaming up to build a treehouse — they share the work and the fun, but each still has their own house.
Real world: A UK tech company and a Chinese manufacturer form a joint venture to produce smartphones for the European market. They share costs, risks, and profits for that project only.
💡 A joint venture lets companies achieve big things together without losing their independence.
