Document background
The Contractual Joint Venture Agreement is a crucial document used when parties wish to collaborate on a business venture without establishing a separate legal entity under Swiss law. This type of agreement is particularly suitable for project-specific collaborations, international business partnerships, or temporary business arrangements where flexibility is desired. The document comprehensively addresses all aspects of the joint venture relationship, including contributions, management, profit sharing, and risk allocation, while ensuring compliance with Swiss legal requirements, particularly the Swiss Code of Obligations. It's commonly used in cross-border transactions, research and development projects, construction ventures, and other collaborative business endeavors where parties want to maintain their separate legal identities while working together toward a common goal.
