All business ventures have risk associated with them. Some business collaborations are formed specifically as risk mitigation measures, while others incur unique risks in the course of their operation. For organizations that are not skilled at managing collaborative relationships, there can be higher risks in delivering value from the collaboration because the skill sets to manage cultural or operational differences are not present. The fact that partners may each have a different tolerance for risk can itself be a risk in the partnership.
