Joint Ventures
There is no legal definition for the term Joint Venture. It is used in various ways and comprises a wide range of agreements where two or more companies agree upon starting a common business or a common business-related activity.
One form of Joint Venture is the Contractual Joint Venture, which is an agreement solely based on obligatory rights, where there is no hiving-off of collaboration e.g. in form of a project company. If a Joint Venture is established in form of a stock or a private company, it is called Equity Joint Venture.
