📖 題組：
A strategic alliance is an arrangement between two companies to undertake a mutually beneficial project while each retains its independence. The agreement is less complex and less binding than a joint venture, in which two businesses pool resources to create a separate business entity. A company may enter into a strategic alliance to expand into a new market, improve its product line, or develop an edge over a competitor. For example, an owner of a guesthouse in Yilan, Taiwan, which caters to high-end clients, is now thinking about forging partnerships with other businesses and developing a new market. He is looking at establishing partnerships with wedding businesses. Newlyweds could honeymoon in his guesthouse and have their wedding photos taken in its beautiful environment. The strategists Yoshino and Rangan have classified the strategic alliance based on two dimensions: Extent of organizational interaction and conflict among the alliance partners. On the basis of these, four types of strategic alliances emerge: ● Procompetitive Alliances(low interaction and low conflict): Such alliances offer the benefits of vertical integration, i.e. a relationship between the manufacturer and its suppliers or distributors. ● Noncompetitive Alliances( high interaction and low conflict): This type of alliance is formed between the companies that operate in the same industry but do not consider each other as rivals. Their business operations do not coincide and are quite distinctive, so the feeling of competitiveness does not emerge. ● Competitive Alliances ( high interaction and high conflict ) : Two competing firms that perceive each other as rivals come together to form an alliance. Therefore, the intense interaction between the two is necessary. Such alliances could be intra-industry or inter-industry. ● Precompetitive Alliance ( low interaction and high conflict ) : Such partnership brings two firms from different, most often unrelated industries to work towards a specific activity, such as new technology development, or creating awareness among the potential customers about the use of new product or idea. A strategic alliance can, however, bring its own risks. While the agreement is usually clear for both companies, there may be differences in how the firms conduct business. Further, if the alliance requires the parties to share information, there must be trust between the two allies.
