Standing The Test of Time: Important Considerations in Long-Term Partnering Transactions

Abstract

In the integrated global economy that has emerged over the last two decades, companies in all industries require a network of partners to discover, develop, manufacture, market, sell, supply and distribute products to global markets. Long-term strategic partnerships with high levels of interdependence can be among the best opportunities for a company to leverage and exploit its core capabilities and assets. However, these partnerships also present substantial challenges that require the highest level of practical and insightful legal counsel to guide their design, negotiation and day-to-day administration.
