Description
This session will explore key legal issues related to the establishment, operation of and exit from a joint venture from the perspective of a closely held company.
This session will cover:
• Why consider a joint venture? This can be a good option but there are pitfalls – both legal and operational.
• Structure – what are the options and how do you find the right one?
• Finding the right partner – what do they bring to the table, and can you govern and run the joint venture together? What steps can the lawyers take to help provide the ‘rules for the road’ to align these interests. How do cultural issues make an impact?
• Legal issues – from rules for governance, to completion/anti-trust compliance, to how to manage an exit/break up.
• And a lot in between.
