And then I thought about how there must be great or some lousy partnerships out there in the business world. <br /><br /> Not hidden partnerships like sponsorship of a Premiership soccer club (not that I have anything against that), where involves a payment for a service (in this case PR and brand awareness) but genuine partnerships where no one party is paying the other directly: this could be joint product development, co-branding and such. <br /><br /> So that's the focus and the raison d'être for this blog. <br /><br /> Am I an expert on this; no way. But I will be able to give some good examples and raise some good issues hopefully. <br /><br /> Enjoy <br /> Gaurav<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2030169598863853553-7891617552702715917?l=partnershipsinbusiness.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Gauravhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06677926015543643088noreply@blogger.com0
