What was the real purpose of the marriage between Huawei and 3Com?
On June 10, 2003, Cisco Systems' lawsuit against Huawei Technologies took an exciting turn. 3Com, Huawei's joint venture partner in North America, announced their application for judgment to the district federal court in Marshall, Texas. They hoped the judge would declare that the new products released by Huawei-3Com had not violated Cisco's IPR. With this action, 3Com got heavily involved in the legal battle between China and the United States’ largest network equipment companies.
The "Cisco case" helped encourage cooperation between Huawei and 3Com, but what were the other factors that contributed to this relationship? What was the real purpose of the "marriage" between Huawei and 3Com? What were 3Com's intentions? Did the joint venture between Huawei and 3Com go smoothly? How are things shaping up for their new company, H3C? What are its strengths? Can the new company achieve the ideal 1+1>2 result? In a constantly changing economic environment, what kinds of challenges are facing joint venture companies?
