Partnership

A partnership is a business relationship between two or more individuals or organizations that agree to work together for a common purpose or goal. Partnerships can take many different forms, including general partnerships, limited partnerships, and joint ventures. In a partnership, each partner contributes something of value to the business, such as money, expertise, or assets, and they share in the profits and losses of the business according to their agreed-upon ownership share. Partnerships are often formed to combine the strengths and resources of the partners in order to achieve a specific objective or to gain a competitive advantage. Partnerships can be a useful way for businesses to expand and grow, but they also come with certain risks and challenges that must be carefully managed.
