Companies must attract members and partners to their platforms while maximizing profits.
Many companies are building or joining collaborative networks. The challenge is how to effectively set up and manage these ecosystems and use them strategically to maximize value—and gain a competitive edge.
Joint ventures remain popular as a valuable approach to global business alliances, but with a distinctly new look. Previously, they were viewed primarily as a way to reduce risks or costs, or to expand into new markets. Today’s international joint ventures often involve established and emerging market players—a combination of mature companies and start-ups—joining together to pool their distinctly unique capabilities and resources to create something truly innovative.
