Organising a Joint Venture or a Consortium is a task that requires in-depth experience of various disciplines. When a joint-venture deal is entered into by business partners joining from different countries, the task of aligning everybody and the harmonisation of all the legal, cultural and business aspects becomes more complicated and delicate to handle. Ultimately, the ideal outcome of a joint-venture would be to build a strategic alliance that would allow both parties achieve together what would naturally have a less efficient performance or impossible to do alone.

In today's modern society, a Joint-Venture or a Cross-Borders Joint-Venture may be implemented to address all sorts of business activities such as:

• sales,
• licensing,
• project
• implementation,
• R'D,
• Equity ventures and M'A,
• new markets penetration,
• etc...
