Abstract

Strategic alliances are collaborative organizational arrangements that use resources and/or governance structures from more than one existing organization. As a form of strategic alliance, an equity joint venture (JV) is a legally distinct business unit, owned by two or more partner firms. This definition and its equity component clearly distinguish JVs from contractual alliances and other non-equity forms of collaboration. An international JV (IJV) is a JV with two or more parents of different nationality.
