Les aliances estratègiques juguen un paper clau en l’àmbit empresarial. Aquest article analitza, des d’una perspectiva txecoslovaca i a partir de fonts inèdites, les relacions que durant el període d’entreguerres van mantenir dues importants empreses europees de fabricació d’armament: la fàbrica Škoda de Txecoslovàquia i el seu accionista majoritari, l’empresa francesa Schneider et Cie. La investigació mostra com es van desenvolupar aquestes relacions mútues a través de l’exemple de les exportacions de material d’artilleria sota l’anomenada Convenció d’Artilleria, que va dividir els territoris d’exportació entre ambdues empreses i va estar vigent durant bona part del període analitzat. Tot i que les relacions inicials entre les companyies estaven marcades pel vincle de propietat, amb el temps es van estabilitzar, i aquestes relacions poden considerar-se un exemple d’una col·laboració exitosa entre ambdues. La implicació de Schneider a Škoda va resultar beneficiosa tant per a l’empresa com per a Txecoslovàquia, ja que va contribuir a que Škoda assolís una posició sòlida en el comerç internacional d’armament
