Joint venture or strategic alliance is a form of partnership where businesses come together to share markets, tools, knowledge, profit. Joint ventures can exist of various forms and sizes. Why do we choose Joint Venture?
The joint venture partner will have the financing and will often have the right expertise, both of which will be needed to make your company successful, state-of-the-art business. And they will have the financing available to create a marketing plan which, along with your knowledge of the local market, will create an effective marketing strategy.

But we have more than a decade of experience working in Ukraine, one of the countries of the former Soviet Union, so we do know what kind of information the companies are looking to feel secure and we can help you supply it.
