..ooOoo.. THE JOINT VENTURE HOME PAGE FOR SMALL AND MID-SIZED BUSINESSES   *A joint venture is a business arrangement in which two or more parties undertake a specific economic activity together.

A joint venture can turn under-utilized resources into profit, create a new profit center, help you enter untapped markets, quicker and at less cost than trying it alone.     Joint ventures are a popular method of expanding business. Major corporations and mid-sized companies are getting together, and small companies can, too, on a less formal basis.

This website serves to bring businesses together and encourages joint venture and other cooperative arrangements.     Joint venture partners are matched by a process of closed proposal. Interested parties should submit the outline of a plan they would like to implement, stating what they bring to the project and what they expect of a joint venture partner.
