10 Successful Joint Ventures Examples (International and Domestic)

2. Verizon and Vodafone

This is an example of a venture that we could say was good while it lasted, and a fine example of how having a venture might come in handy when you need some cash. Verizon Communications teamed up with European wireless network giant Vodafone in 2000. They had a huge impact on North American market, but he JV ended in 2014 when Verizon offered to buy off its share for $130 billion. Even though the venture was highly profitable, at that time it suited Vodafone to sell its share and use the income for solving the issues within its own company.
