Often the joint venture creates a separate business entity, to which the owners contribute assets, have equity, and agree on how this entity may be managed.

A joint venture differs from a merger in the sense that there is no transfer of ownership in the deal since the joint venture is not a legal entity, it does not enter into contracts, hire employees, or have its own tax liabilities. These activities and obligations are handled through the co-venturers directly and are governed by contract law.

When two businesses enter into a joint venture one of the parties benefits from the other's goodwill which has already been established in the market. A lot of investment is saved in this process of using the established brand name.
