and goal. It’s common for businesses in emerging fields to collaborate with
each other in order to further their research.

come together to combine their expertise. The goal of this type of joint venture
is to enable both companies to perform their vital functions more efficiently.

enter new markets while sharing risk and building economies of scale.

between companies that are in the same general line of business and that may
use the products from Joint venture to sell to their own customers or to create
an output that can be sold to the same group of customers.
