Collaboration and JVs
Our experienced commercial team can help you to set up all kinds of structures for working with others, from informal partnerships to full joint ventures.
Every time you decide to work with another organisation you have to choose how best to make that relationship work. Whether you are setting up a loose collaboration or a formal joint venture it is imperative that you review the options, bear in mind the legal rules, and find the right way for you. Our specialist team can guide you through every step of the process.
