Overview

Increased rates of technological change and globalisation are leading more and more firms to consider joint venture strategies. From a legal perspective however, little if anything has been written on these collaborative business relationships. Now, two of Canada's leading practitioners in the field have prepared the first comprehensive legal treatment of joint ventures, drawing together applicable case law and statutory provisions, and providing specific examples of joint venture relationships drawn from real experience. If you are looking for a sophisticated understanding of the nature of joint venture relationships, or a practical guide to structuring joint ventures, this book will provide the answers.
