About this document
Businesses often team up for a single project – a joint bid, a product launch, a research project, an event or a shared marketing campaign – without wanting to set up a joint venture company. Without a written agreement, the parties may accidentally be treated as partners, with unlimited liability for each other’s debts, and argue later about who owns what. This agreement avoids that.
The document is laid out in the sections below. Each one comes with a plain-English guidance note explaining what it does and what to change.
Our templates are professionally structured starting points for UK businesses, not legal advice. For anything complex, unusual or high-value, have your final version checked by a solicitor.
