joint ventures
Joint ventures enable businesses and organisations to break into
new markets and conduct research and development and are
increasingly common as they enable companies to differentiate
themselves from their competition. Browne Jacobson’s experienced
team advises on the minefield of legal implications that these
agreements contain and ensures that contracts protect client
interests.
The team approaches each case individually and, with client
ambitions in mind, assists throughout the process, identifying the
most appropriate structure, negotiating commercial agreements and
advising on funding arrangements. The team’s experience enables it
to identify and obtain all necessary regulatory clearance and
consent, and advise on competition law implications.
The team’s commercial awareness of changing market conditions
and their effect on business relationships ensures advisers create
all joint venture agreements with a worst case scenario in mind.
Clients are therefore assured that, should they need it, a clear
exit route is available and issues such as intellectual property
rights are already provided for.
