Thus, establishing partnership - follow -up necessitates a tripartite agreement, 
the parties being 
+ the Utilizing = Partner,

Commercial Companies 
  
Commercial companies have been, and are most active in rendering technical 
know = how to developing countries. Obviously, they have to be paid for their 
work. As funds for follow-up operations have been available only in exceptional 
cases, commercial companies could do very little in this field, and merely 
nothing has been done so far for long lasting follow - ups. 
Our concept of "Partnership = Follow - Up’ endeavours to fill this gap. It is, 
hence, in no way a competition to commercial companies.
